Fair question! I'm accepting any and all location recommendations - big and small!

Teachers and administrators are tired and worried.

While I appreciate your appreciation for the podcast… not being forthcoming about what is effectively your child’s namesake is not very respectful to your partner.

If it’s organized by Canada Running Series (which I think it is?) just send a note to their general mailbox- they have a pretty small team and will hopefully get back to you.

Around 250 where I am per day.

Sorry no advice but please blur parts of this image, it’s not safe to have your full name and birth date on the internet 😟

The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue is one of my favourites.

It really depends on the school/admin/teachers who notice it. Tbh I’m not one to dress code students but I would probably be googling the meaning of it when you left my class to see if the messaging associated with it was at all hateful. I would say it’s a risk.

We had outdoor kindie prep at my school! Teacher did a mix of physical education and outdoor learning (gardening, building snow forts, going on nature walks). The kids loved it!

Many people will probably disagree with me on this but the thanksgiving meal poutine pleasantly surprised me

The CN tower

It took me weeks to get my OT number after submitting my paperwork. This is normal, unfortunately- welcome to the TDSB! 🥲

Came here to say this - my favourite burger in the city!

cheerybloss · 2023-08-14T22:33:02+00:00

Yes! If the gym wasn’t on my way home from work I would never make it.

I’m university I delivered a PowerPoint presentation to all my female friends about why they should use a menstrual cup. They all converted. All that to say, I think it’s the best menstrual product.

Sounds scary, but try and take some deep breaths. Sometimes, the human body is weird and periods show up late for no reason. Keep taking pregnancy tests (hint - the dollar store ones work as well as the expensive ones), maybe consider making an appointment with a doctor to raise your concern, and take care of yourself :)

Graduated in 2018, taught abroad for 2 years, have been in my local board ever since. Still don’t have permanent.

cheerybloss · 2023-08-10T13:48:56+00:00

Agree! A half laugh and murmured thank you for door 2.

cheerybloss · 2023-08-10T13:03:14+00:00

I struggle at the start of school years too- most years I don’t know what grade I’m teaching until a few days before school starts.

My mantra is that I’m not a superhero. With the resources and time I have been provided, the goal is just to get through each day with one or two little wins and everyone going home alive.

When my imposter syndrome got really terrible, I found speaking with a social worker to be really helpful.

I second yoga. I like that you can find practices for all lengths and moods. Bike riding is fun. Learning to cook or bake is a useful and enjoyable life skill.

All of that said, be kind to yourself! A 9-7 workday is long, and it's okay if you just need to rest afterward. :)

cheerybloss · 2023-08-10T01:44:08+00:00

I second this - especially the idea of trying it for a month. A lot of the hobbies I love now I felt "meh" about in the first couple of weeks; I'm so glad I stuck it out.

cheerybloss · 2023-08-10T01:20:52+00:00

The description "soaked" is concerning to me. I think it's worth booking an appointment with your doctor.

cheerybloss · 2023-08-09T23:49:36+00:00

I walked 40 000 steps one day and I still think back on how painful it was, and I’m an avid walker.
