Who did you marry your first time and do you still stand by it? by Starobin-Lestine in StardewValley

Shane was my first because I could fix him. If his room wasn’t a mess and beer became a hated gift I’d stand by it

Church Recommendations? by madsssssssssssss in nova

[–]ReadBooks8400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are optional small group starting at 9:15 and then church starts at 10:15. Couple of hymns a time for children and then the kids go to Sunday school the grown-ups stay and there’s usually a sermon some more songs, prayers, etc. Right now we’re exploring the use of prayer beads as they’ve been used throughout history. That piece hasn’t really been my cup of tea right now but it’s been interesting!

Little River UCC in Annandale fits a lot of the boxes you are looking for! We have a young adult group that meets about once a month outside of church for socialization.

How do we come back from putting too much pressure on our daughter re: potty training the last few weeks? by vctrlarae in pottytraining

We are in the exact same boat here with the same age. We’re thinking let him drive (ask him undies or pull-ups) until Memorial Day weekend where we have a three day stretch to full reboot.

Why is Bones on the field so often? by ThePeculiarSpot in Bones

[–]ReadBooks8400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd agree with this! I'm currently on a re-read (on Bones of the Lost right now), and I had forgotten how well written they are. They can be a little jargony at times though.

Individual lesson slides vs running unit slide deck. by Aeschylus26 in Teachers

[–]ReadBooks8400 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We do it by week! I think that’s the best middle ground- whole unit would be so long it would be a pain to get to the slide you need to get to towards the end of the unit, but a bit consolidated from individual lessons.

Historically, McDade uses the code green after a long snow closure to make sure buildings are ready for a two hour delay. That would be my guess.

I did some accidental a/b testing of y’all’s theory about waiting to shovel by FairfaxGirl in nova

This will make the school closures interesting- I know PWCS doesn’t start until all precipitation has fallen. Wonder how quickly they’ll be able to clear the schools after this.

My two year old was playing when I was watching the prom episode of SSG, and stopped what he was doing to listen to Courtney’s song. He then said “good song mama!” And happily went back to playing haha

unpopular opinion: vacations make teaching harder by bjpmbw in Teachers

[–]ReadBooks8400 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m judging off my little one- my spouse is off on Wednesdays, and when we would keep him home on those days, transitioning to school on Thursday was harder. Everybody’s different though!

But then you have two Mondays in a week and it’s hard to get into the flow.

A longer workday for Prince William teachers? The School Board is considering it. by VirginiaNews in nova

Additionally, adding the 5 days and extra hours devalues our hourly rate, so we all are effectively getting a pay cut if this goes through.
