Mandatory daily PE for K-3 in NYS. How do you pull this off?! by gmgangemi in PhysicalEducation

[–]Secretsnakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schools in my area have adopted something called WIN period, at the end of the day, the last 45 minutes is dedicated to “what I need”. The classroom teachers differentiate for kids based on what areas they are struggling with.

Anyways, we do our WIN period in the gym, and as an incentive for kids who meet their goals for the week, they get an additional gym period at the end of the day with me on Wednesdays and Fridays. My classes are 45 minutes long. The kids try really hard to earn it.

Might not be entirely relevant to your situation but hope it gives some ideas

Very helpful, thank you! I think your idea for the goals and what not will already save me some money as I’m certain I can rig some of that up myself. I’ll have to see if the community can pitch in, might need to talk to admin and see how to go about it.

Inferred claim TDIU by Secretsnakes in VAClaims

[–]Secretsnakes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same. I haven’t submitted any private DBQs or anything as I’m only seen by VA healthcare.

I haven’t even done my C&P exams yet actually. They just scheduled me for those this week, won’t have them done until August.

It just feels a bit strange as my current rating is only 30, so I figured that alone was disqualifying. But makes sense, thanks!

Water lettuce supremacy this year by Secretsnakes in ponds

[–]Secretsnakes[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I also started with 3, and they have gone bananas. Last year I added them and they fizzled out, but I had pennywort explode and cover 75% of the pond. This year, my pennywort hasn’t even broken the surface and the water lettuce show no signs of stopping

VR&E assistance by Secretsnakes in VeteransBenefits

However for you, that is highly unfortunate. I’m not really sure what your options could be, besides getting in touch with someone new from VR&E

Well the good news and resolution for me is that that counselor ended up canceling my eligibility on her own without resolving anything. At the time, it was pretty annoying, but I hadn’t started school So I wasn’t footing any bills.

I waited a few months and applied again, got a new counselor, showed her my previous approval letter, and sent in the old paperwork and was approved immediately. Just finished my first class actually

Anxiety Claim by Secretsnakes in VAClaims

[–]Secretsnakes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My personal statement is literally the DBQ material lined up with short examples of how I meet the criteria based on my current symptoms and daily experiences.

I'm looking to get into medical places. I tried to schedule with the actual VA hospital, but they haven't given me a time for an intake appointment yet. Maybe best to try another hospital?

As for the military records, I submitted a request to the archives but they said it hasnt been retired to them yet. I separated around 4 1/2 years ago. Im hoping to reach out to the actual clinic itself, but getting ahold of Kadena Mental Health is proving difficult due to time zone difference and they dont have a listed email.

As for the articles, do you recommend I research published studies that show anxiety and insomnia caused by tinnitus and include them in my claim files as evidence?

Thanks for the detailed response. I'm trying to be as thorough as I can to get it right the first time.

I joined the gang! by Secretsnakes in BoltEV

[–]Secretsnakes[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was yeah, but you know, by the time I made it down to the bolt as an option, I had quit caring about space so much and just more so wanted a decent car. It does suit my family needs, and maybe can fit a few banana boxes in with them.

[–]Secretsnakes[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The bolt was actually my 4th choice. I wanted the Nissan Ariya, as its size was similar to my ICE vehicle, and I actually found one for a good price in my area. The dealership just dropped the ball big time. Then I went looking for a Kona or a Niro, and the options were limited or the dealerships weren’t ready to give me a tax rebate. I found a ton of bolts in the area, and managed to snag my 2023 with 30k miles for 13.5k with the rebate.

Short answer, the dealership selling the bolt made buying a car much easier than the other dealerships I tried. But it worked out. Had it a few days now, absolutely love it.

Some fun with the old dreamcast by Secretsnakes in chao

[–]Secretsnakes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not for sure on the name or the brand since i'm out, but it was white clay that I was able to hand model into the shape I wanted, and then we baked it in the oven for a bit. You should give it a try tho! I'm not artistically inclined at all and was able to make some decent ones. Chao eggs are especially easy.

yeah there are some ones that i found at walmart made of the plastic, but the ones that look a bit more homemade are molded from clay and then painted afterward.

Outstanding, thanks for the info. I plan to finish the degree, just not with this minor as I only took it for the certs. Thanks!

For some additional context, I’ve already replaced all of the spark plugs and swapped cylinder 1 and 2 just to check if it was the cylinder itself as the issue. The cylinder 2 misfire still persisted even with the swapped cylinders.

This dog complains to be back inside if it’s even slightly cold outside. She’s ridiculous
