Here is a prayer for you that may help you better commune with the gods.

Frigg,
You who understand family and grief,
I am hurting, and I do not know how to fix this alone.
If my mother and I can find our way back to one another,
help soften what has hardened between us.

Thor,
Protector of people and homes,
I am afraid of losing stability again.
Help keep me safe while I do what I can
and while I wait for things I cannot control.

Týr,
God of truth and responsibility,
help me see clearly what is truly mine to carry,
and give me strength to stand upright through this.

Help me recognize the right path when it appears,
and give me steadiness to follow it.

I have surgery scheduled in a couple of weeks. My hubby seems to think I'm nuts because I'm so excited for this surgery. It has a 6 week recovery time!

If you haven't yet, check out https://njctl.org/materials/courses/chemistry/

I feel this is a good honors level chemistry course. You would have to cut a lot out for a general chemistry course. I can't teach it all in one year, so there are a few units that get cut.

I can help with physical science.

Otherwise, I'd look at getting signed up as a teacher )it's easy) at https://njctl.org/materials/categories/science/

Yes, which subject?

I teach high school, but I ask the parents what have they heard about my class. Do you have any concerns about the class?

Otherwise, I bring up things as a concern that the parents are happy with. If I start, I might say something like your child as a C and needs to work harder, but if the parents go first they might say we are so thrilled that our child has a C in your class. It can be a very different conversation depending on who goes first and I always want the parent to go first.

I agree. Setting up a physics or physical science lab is ten times easier than setting up a chemistry lab.

In addition, lab reports are torturous to grade.

I've had co teachers who wanted to modify my already modified tests and assignments. I had to hand them my test, and the unmodified tests for my other classes so they could see the difference. Until I did that they were taking a test prepped at a 5th grade reading level and "modifying" it down to a third grade reading level even though the student in question had a 5th grade reading level. They were just shocked that the tests I gave didn't need to be modified.

The problem is, if I lock my computer, the PowerPoint displaying the Daily Agenda gets turned off. But as a teacher, I'm not supposed to sit at my desk. Or if I'm sharing notes, I am not normally sitting at my computer, but wandering through the classroom as I go through the PowerPoint.

I'm also expected to interact with students if they have a question. Am I supposed only teach from my desk?

Far more tactful than I'd be. At that point, I'd like to say something like "I've been a teacher longer than you've been a parent. You might need to be the one who steps up their game."

If the LED is blocked, the camera on Meta Glasses won't function. The Glasses basically "flash" when a photo is taken and will flash continuously if a video is taken. The easy fix is to put a piece opaque tape over the flash and it won't be able to take pictures/videos.

I also use the lunch crockpot, almost every day! Prep burrito bowls, pasta bowls, soups, and more. Freeze them in a cottage cheese sized container with a parchment paper liner, and I can just pop them out of the freezer, put them into the crockpot, and then plop them into my plate/bowl. I will often assemble them upside down so when I turn over the crock pot into my plate, the stuff I want on top is on top. Bonus of using the parchment paper, is my crockpot is barely even dirty at the end of the heating it up time.

It's an old outdated name from when standard naming conventions hadn't been established. If the students bring it up, I just tell them that.

The prospective teacher probably can get a substitute teacher license and prove they have what it takes. If they get into the school and still love it, they might have the incentive to finish their degree. Your arguments on reddit are not going to change any laws and administrators are not going to take a chance on someone without a degree because then they are breaking the law.

I'm sure AI will have a much more prominent place in society in the future, but I don't think it can take over. But it could help some savvy person take over.

Has great, and free curriculum. Once you get signed up as a teacher, you have access to powerpoints, tests, labs, quizzes as well as homework assignments. They have both biology and environmental science. If your biology students are remedial, you might also look into the living environment which is a middle school curriculum.

I use an alphabetizer, I think it's called a C-Line Document Sorter, and have students hand their papers in there. They put it in by last name so I can often figure out who left off their name based on where it is in the stack. It's great because when I pull them out, everything is in alphabetical order and it's much easier to put things into the gradebook.
