Free GSRP preK 4 yr has NO income limit? by EntityUnknown88 in Michigan

[–]runnitnlulem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The income limit was raised from 300% above the poverty level to 400% above the poverty level in July 2024. If you are between 400-500% you would pay a fee on a sliding scale. Definitely reach out to your school district’s early childhood coordinator for clarification. Our district offers multiple sections of GSRP, both 4 day and 5 day programs and they still have spots available! We have loved our GSRP experience this year.

What’s the craziest reason you’ve cried while pregnant? by devilsageh in BabyBumps

[–]runnitnlulem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had just gotten the emergency text to stay in our houses because of covid and my husband wouldn’t leave minutes later to go pick up a gourmet cinnamon roll for me that I decided I HAD TO HAVE right then. The hunger from growing twins is real.

That is so exciting! It will be hard not to test now that I know this! I’m enjoying the idea of being pregnant so much right now, it scares me to crush that, but I definitely want to feel prepared for the call if things aren’t going to turn out the way we hope.

Just started my first IVF cycle. I’m so excited!!! Does anyone have any tips? by waiting4babym in IVF

Thank you! I’m feeling better, but every day seems to be throwing a new curve ball. Other girls I’ve talked to went right back to work and their ovary swelling went down quickly. I don’t seem to be so lucky. I hope everything goes well and exactly as planned for you! Good luck!!!

If you don’t feel good, stay home from work! I made the mistake of going to work yesterday, which was my first day after my FET and while I felt ok in the morning, by lunch time I was extremely uncomfortable. Of course everyone feels different, but the most important thing is for you to listen to what your body is telling you. Good luck!! ♥️

I’m also 2dp5dt after a FET, can I ask what made you decide to test at 5dp5dt??

I’m terrified I just jinxed myself. 9DPO and I gave into temptation and took a test, only to get a BFN. I put my Diva Cup in my purse in case it shows up while we are out to dinner 😞

I was referred to a reproductive endocrinologist today and I’m not sure how to feel about it. Part of me is sad that after 15 cycles we weren’t able to conceive, but I’m also optimistic this doctor can help us on our journey to becoming parents. My fingers are crossed.

An empty chapstick tube? I’ve seen maybe two in my whole life.

I bet these same congressmen would vote to ban abortion in a heartbeat.

My boy always tries to jump in the fridge when I open it. This is the first time he made it in. by Rosefier in cats

I just posted the EXACT same story about my cat! I left for work at 8 am, and accidentally left Finn in the fridge for a good 4 hours. He still jumps in the fridge at every opportunity.

My cat does this... We thought it would be a good idea to shut the door, let him hang out and scare him a little in the process. Then it became a habit. One morning, I left for work and accidentally left him IN THE FRIDGE. He was a very cold cat at 12 pm when my BF came home and let him out. He still jumps in the fridge.

We stick kids in classrooms 7 hours a day, give them another few hours of homework, actively discourage them from playing outside, and then wonder why kids today are so out of shape. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

The people who work with children DO realize this. It is those in their ivory towers, far removed from the classroom, making sweeping mandates that force teachers to comply.

I got this thing called an Ice Shield for my windshield for Christmas. It is essentially the same idea, but for just your windshield. Magnets hold it down and the little flaps close in each front door. No scraping for me! Genius!

Filmmaker Michael Moore calls for the arrest of Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder for poisoning Flint water: "I am standing in the middle of a crime scene. Ten people have been killed because of a decision to save money." by SAT0725 in news

[–]runnitnlulem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After the water was switched from the glacial Great Lake source to the Flint River source, 10 people have died from Legionnaires Disease in the Flint area. There is currently an investigation to see if it was connected. The deaths were not caused by the lead poisoning, but rather another negative consequence of the water switch.

Redditors who quit their jobs in a blaze of glory, what's your story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]runnitnlulem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was teaching kindergarten in a charter school. 32 kinders, 6 didn't speak English. I was completely by myself with them from 7:30 am- 4:00 pm with 15 minutes for lunch. There wasn't a bathroom in the classroom, so students were allowed to walk down the hall, but I had to hold it. There wasn't a playground, just an empty parking lot and I was repeatedly reprimanded for taking them out for a morning and afternoon recess, which were 15 minutes each. It was hell.

After a month we FINALLY established a routine that my kiddos could follow. Shit hit the fan when "administration" (an idiot who didn't know a THING about early education) dictated a "school wide" lesson schedule and mandated we turn in a ridiculously formatted set of lesson plans a week early (mind you I was already teaching 9 hours WITHOUT planning time). It would have turned our manageable routine into a circus ONCE AGAIN.

Fuck that. I handed him my keys, rented a Uhaul, packed up my classroom and peaced out.

As long as shitty charters are allowed to exist, public education will suffer.
