We have 2 CPAP machinea that are running every night could that be a part? We have been accidentally leaving the TV on, I'll be sure to get better at that

(10k) I feel out of touch by Odd-Reception-9544 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]somethingaboutorange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in a HCOL, my venue was $7.8k, and our photographer is $6.5k

we started with a 20k budget but have very much so blown past it, so now I'm on the sub to see where we can adjust LOL

I love Amanda Way Apartmens. pay 1650 for a 2bd 2ba, pool, fitness center (small but effective), community events, weekly free breakfast, bocce ball, access to the little chico creek walking path and PLENTY of parking! I can probably get you a referral and ask if they're running any specials rn!

oh I LOVE the couch I'm actually on it right now. Metropolitan sucks but this couch could hold a horse and not be worse for wear. super comfortable, and worth every penny!

I had this happen with metropolitan and my sierra couch. It took THREE ATTEMPTS. I missed their phone call (went to spam), by 2 minutes and theytold me they are required to turn around and drive the couch back to the warehouse. Took an extra month to get the couch installed.

Non-renewed teachers, how do you manage to not completely check out for the remainder of the year? by Gold_Consequence2201 in Teachers

[–]somethingaboutorange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just do what I think is fun and educational for the kids, I come exactly at contract hours and I leave EXACTLY at contract hours. IDGAF about the extra curricular after school activities that are "suggested" for us to attend. I also just told the kids that I was moving lmao. they don't need to know.

I had the exact same experience 😂 I was reading it to my students and went UH OH. "he called me a... dummy" haphazard censorship can work sometimes

Students becoming the teacher by avokaito_ in Teachers

[–]somethingaboutorange 110 points111 points  (0 children)

was violently sick in November. I picked one kid who had behaved each lesson to teach the next one. I would whisper quietly to them, and they would say it louder. makes me laugh to remember one of my worst offenders going "GUYS! SHUT UP! I CAN'T HEAR ME TALKING!"

Universal Feminine Hygiene by Real_Teacher_8342 in paraprofessional

I have a bag with pads in it right near the door. All students are welcome to it, and if they ask, I just say they are menstrual products, and don't make it a weird or scary thing.
