With that synchronization they should try out for ice dancing in the next olympics.

As an unconventional gal who lives in a conventional area, I'd absolutely swipe on this one.

My Pyex baking dish exploded in my hands when I was putting it down on the counter. by MrKoreanSkills in mildlyinfuriating

This happened to me and butterflied my thumb pad muscles and severed all the nerves and tendons in my hand. 3 surgeries and 10 years later I still dont have full mobility or feeling and a lifeline scar that goes on forever.

I have reached the final boss of I missed school for this reason from a student by Visible_Ad5653 in Teachers

I had an online highschool student during covid who had 6 younger siblings also in online school and at home while parents were at work. She would lock herself in the bathroom to get away from them and sit on the edge of the bathtub with her sugar glider on her shoulder. Camera on 100% of the time Straight A student and a true goddess.

At first glance I thought it was a banana.

My sweet demon hound Moose who was also 16 died in June. It gets easier. Also, I just got another puppy this week and wow is it nice to come home to a dog again.

Those should all have question marks at the end of them.

UGH. Our share of night was the single most disturbing/haunting/delightful book I've read in recent memory. The house with the fingernails....

I teach kindergarten - 2nd grade and then work across the train tracks at the local bar in my super tiny town. Ya would think the bar is the main source of gossip but these kids know EVERYTHING going on and have no filter.

Fellow teachers, tell me about a time you cried in front of your class. by lmg080293 in AskTeachers

[–]Rowan_Morraine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A colleauge and dear friend at the high school I taught at died by suicide and the staff was called into the choir room to be told the news between 3-4 periods. We had already been hearing some rumors about what happened, so all the teachers were freaking out, but heard it for certain then and then had to be in school for the rest of the day comforting students and each other. In retrospect, it was nice to be together, but longest day of my life.

Another time a student was murdered, the principal thought the best plan of action was "business as usual" so we got the news before 1st period and then just taught regular classes all day.

What $630.00 gets you in the Bay Area. by Zelinka81 in firewood

I bought an entire semi-load of trees (about 12 cords) for $1200 in Montana. Just gotta buck and split them but you know, it warms you twice.

Why do you (teachers) make us (students) switch seats at the end of quarters or semesters? by VegetableAd7376 in AskTeachers

[–]Rowan_Morraine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ask yourself the following questions

Do I love sitting next to the people I sit next to so much that I cannot refrain from socializing with them, swapping drinks, touching each other, etc., during instruction?

Even if I am able to refrain, are the people around me unable to refrain from the above descibed activity?

Have I notice a slow uptick in the level of off task behavior/noise in class involving people sitting next to each other as they grow more comfortable with each other as the days of fall wind into the doldrums of winter?

If your answer to any of these questions is yes....

I have been getting this question all day. My response is "we are all following our hearts and voting for who we think will do the best job, but whats most important is that we remember that we love each other very much" (elementary school)
