I'm calling today "The calm before the storm". It's beautiful outside, suppose to go up to 7C, unprecedented for this time of year. I have a feeling we're in for a HUGE blizzard soon

As long as the HUGE blizzard isn't on Jan. 23, I'll be okay

I know many of you heard my issues with the school last year and how they wanted me to medicate my son and have him evaluated for ADD/ADHD. He was a C student and I was told that without proper help (meaning medication) he would never get out of the rut he was in. Well this year, during this marking period he's all A's and one B and considered an "outstanding student".

I nearly cried when I opened his report card today.

I'm such a proud mom tonight!

Congratulations to Ethan. Now Nev, are you going to take that report card and shove it in that delusional teachers face and tell her/him to "suck it"?

Good morning all! Coffee is ready!

Thanks for the coffee Carla and good morning!

Sprailenes, that is great news!

That's so funny because that's what my mom and coworkers are telling me to do. Write a nice long letter to his school last year and send a copy of his report card.

Also to my MIL who wanted me to also have him evaluated for ADD/ADHD... I got him to phone her up lastnight and tell her the news. She was floored. That felt amazing.

If things are still the same at the end of the year and his grades are still like this, I will write a letter to that school and tell them that perhaps they need to look at the teacher and not so much the student.

Okay going from proud mom to pervert here, but there is this woman who comes in who has the most perfect boobs, and I really can't tell if they're real or not. They're perfect circles, but they have some bounce to them... I mean they don't look like they're rock hard, you know that fake ####### look? These don't look fake, but they do look fake because they're shaped so perfectly.... like Jessica Rabbit boobs.

They confuse me.

If there was a ####### contest she'd win hands down.

B1tch.

Well, I think you need to post pictures so that we can help you decide.

That was one of the things about teaching that seriously irritated me. There were far too many teachers who wanted a simple answer to what could be a more complex question. I can remember some teachers who had taught for many many years. Some of them felt that this experience gave them some level of expertise in the matters of diagnosing children. Now I will say that this will give them some insight in recognizing children who are struggling, it does not grant them diagnostic training and knowledge.

Exactly.

I totally respect it if a teacher tries to talk to me and tell me areas my son needs to improve. But these teachers just had ultimatums for me. Nothing else.

The teacher last year told me flat out, if you don't get him the help now, he will continue to suffer and it will never change.

Well guess what beeotch? It changed.

I always double bag my tea. I like it strong.

No no no. You're doing it all wrong. TRUE teabagging requires dangling it in...

Oh nevermind.
