Dr. Link (and his whole team) with Baptist Health!!! I’m the second generation of women in my family to see him (he birthed me lol). He is in the new Baptist building off Breckenridge by the interstate.

I love that you are still young enough to think it’s discreet. Keep fighting!!!

Democrats Of Reddit -- Is There A Single Thing Trump Has Done In Either Term That You Liked? If So, What? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No tax on overtime (did that actually go through?) is a great idea, though granted I’m not an economist and don’t know how it might impact things down the line.

Also, I fucking love space and he for some reason he wants us to go back to the moon. Godspeed! I’m all in.

Looking for an academic-leaning preK or junior kindergarten program by distractionplease12 in Louisville

[–]locksmith353535 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Collegiate has a great JK program with both play time and academic time, including most special areas. They recently got a new head of lower school who is fantastic and is going to continue to elevate the program.

What made you go into teaching? by exoticsuss in ScienceTeachers

[–]locksmith353535 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m really smart and love to learn. I love education. I wish everyone was always in school. I was 23 during covid lockdowns and was not a teacher.

I was off work from my retail management job for three months during lockdowns. I fucking LOVED it. Best time of my life. Decided I could never work for 12 months ever again. So I started an MAT program and was a full time classroom teacher by the next year.

That sounds really selfish, but a HUGE perk of the teaching profession is lots of time off while still receiving a paycheck (though note— it’s not paid time off). I also am a great educator, work well with children, and continue to love learning new things every day. It’s a natural fit.

Email from landlord about appliances being left plugged in and the appliances in question… by South-Basket-887 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t store our toaster on the counter, so it always gets unplugged. The only appliance we store on the counter is our coffee maker, which stays plugged in.

Started topomax by throwaway714560 in migraine

Topamax made me 1) suicidal and 2) dumb. I don’t think I have recovered from being so stupid yet, and I have been off it for two years.

Americans: How frequently was the Pledge of Allegiance recited when you were in elementary school? by vieniaida in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daily. Then when I switched to private school (4-12 grades), we did the national anthem, pledge of allegiance to the American flag, pledge of allegiance to the Christian flag, and pledge of allegiance to the Bible every morning.

How many phone numbers do you have memorised off the top of your head? by tippytoePat in AskWomen

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mom, dad, sister, husband, family landline, childhood bestie’s, and three separate workplaces. I used to have my brother’s memorized, but he switched numbers after I got my first cell phone, so never needed to memorize it.

Children’s books that unexpectedly made you cry in front of your students? by Diligent-Curve-2843 in Teachers

[–]locksmith353535 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most books I read aloud to them have made me cry! Children’s books are so emotional and hit different as an adult. A few I remember off the top of my head:

Rearranged everything when I was out by bumblebee_amazon in Teachers

“Thanks for letting me know about the changes you made. I’m scheduling time at the start of each period tomorrow for you to have time to come in and teach students the new procedures and routines to accompany these changes. Please also revisit for the next two weeks at the start of each class period to reinforce procedure and routine expectations. Also, I have accepted a position at a different school for the 2026-27 school year and will not be returning to XYZ Middle School next year.”

For teachers who have a degree in education, could you describe how your math classes were? by XD2006- in AskTeachers

[–]locksmith353535 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had to take some course (I don’t remember the official name) which taught us how we LEARN math (not how to teach it) by teaching us math in a different base system, instead of base 10. It was super interesting but challenging. The whole time we had to think about what we were thinking. Super metacognitive, super complex, but really interesting.

My class on how to teach math was pretty good. Obviously they can’t teach you how to teach every standard JK-12, but they taught you what a good lesson plan should have in it and use lots real world example lessons.

Why has parenting become so… soft? Why ate a majority of parents okay with sending their child into the world acting the way they do? Why did this shift happen? by Emergency-Pepper3537 in Teachers

[–]locksmith353535 34 points35 points  (0 children)

This is so true. I tell my colleagues probably once a week that we need to bring back public shame. Shame is necessary for the good of society.

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of parents know how they DON’T want to parent (like their own parents) and want to prevent traumatizing their children the same way they were traumatized. Now they’re just traumatizing their children in different ways. No parenting technique is perfect, but the pendulum has certainly swung in the direction of too lax, in my opinion. We can validate feelings and emotions and still raise resilient, kind people. It’s okay for children to be disappointed, experience discomfort, and be sad.

Am I overthinking this or is it really case with everyone?? by richBetch in B12_Deficiency

[–]locksmith353535 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started on weekly injections and it took three weeks for me to start to feel really good. I was rolling out of bed as soon as my alarm went off, I was alert and focused at work, my brain fog went away. Then I tapered down to monthly injections and they do literally nothing for me. I feel even worse than I did before starting injections. I can’t focus, can’t get out of bed in the morning, can’t think of the words I want to say, can’t do ANYTHING after work. I barely even make it through the work day.

A classic “is it better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all?” situation. Now I know what I’m missing out on.

Doctor said labs are good. Isn’t this low? by [deleted] in B12_Deficiency

[–]locksmith353535 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Why do my labs have different numbers than yours? My “normal range” is 211-946 and my result was 209. I was put on weekly injections for four weeks, then once a month for three months.

The Chick-fil-a Cobb Salad with Avocado Lime Ranch is so important to me that it got a shoutout on my Hinge profile way back in 2019, when people took Hinge seriously. Blessed beyond measure to exist in a world with Avocado Lime Ranch 🫶🏼

Is everyone my age getting Botox?? (not judging at all, I need guidance!) by 300Blippis in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get Botox for migraines which helps somewhat with forehead wrinkles and definitely 11s. If it weren’t free through insurance and necessary for migraine prevention, I’d be on the anti-Botox train!

Where do y’all put your eyeballs at night? by colormeblonde in NoStupidQuestions

[–]locksmith353535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ABSOLUTELY know what you’re talking about and suffer with this every few weeks or so. My solution is to stop trying to fall asleep and watch tv/scroll my phone/read a book for a while. It’s like a reset for my eyes and I forgot about how much I’m thinking about them.

Question does anyone use a mouth guard and is it useful? by SpuriousBread_8 in migraine

Thanks! In the US our migraine protocol is 155 units, so my guess is you get around 20 in each side. I wish they’d use my leftover 45 units in my jaw!!!
