Wheres Toto Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) Today was a long day and I have a headache. One of my teachers will be out tomorrow, but another teacher who doesn't usually work Thursdays is able to cover the classes so that worked out well. Anyone ever have a part-time job with sick pay? I'm thinking of giving sick pay next year and if I remember correctly, my last part time job provided sick time (or PTO) after working a certain number of hours (like 120 I think) and PTO in the number of hours generally or averagely worked in one week. So someone who works 20 hours a week, gets 20 hours of PTO. Does that sound right to anyone else who has experience working part time? ETA: Hey, I got the booya for page 4000! I'm going with a Pay Everyone More! booya instead of a headache booya. Edited March 30, 2022 by Wheres Toto 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheres Toto Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 This time of year is crazy. We are simultaneously taking registrations for our last session of this year, taking registration deposits for our first session of next year (September) and doing Summer Camp registrations as well. It can be very confusing but I don't really know another way to do it. People want to know what they are doing next year to plan out coops and stuff, Summer camp is often people who aren't in regular classes/aren't homeschoolers, and we still have to finish up this year. I'm getting audited for my worker's compensation insurance Tuesday morning so I have to make sure I upload my accountant's working copy of quickbooks sometime this weekend, then enter the information for January and February (my term ends February), all while being away for the weekend. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I wonder if the coming weather is what is giving me a headache? Barometric pressure tends to make my head feel funny. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I actually think it's kind of great that I just found the second incision. It hadn't hurt at all before, so I didn't even know it was there. I'm trying to get through this without any narcotics because I'm afraid of addition, so I'm just bouncing between tylenol and advil and trying to stay ahead of the pain. I took the most recent dose a little bit late and I think that's why I noticed it. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I love narcotics. They are the only thing that makes my back not hurt. I would say that I would take them all the time if I could except that I had a doctor who thought that was a great idea and I had to explain to her repeatedly why it wasn't. I was like 28. When I am old and wasting away I will be on narcotics and my grandchildren will laugh about how silly I am all of the time. Until then I will be cranky. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I'm watching the new Marvel show where the guy has Matt's sleeping disorder. It's based on super old info so he has a form of disassociative identity disorder that only comes out while he's sleeping, which is kinda accurate, but the wrong part of the brain. This poor man woke up in the wrong country. I don't think hubby's done that. Yet. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I can't take narcotics, they all make me puke. Which isn't fun when you are in pain.

Junie Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Good Morning! Happy Thursday! I slept okay -- about as well as I have been. I have quite a bit more pain today, but I was expecting that. I was trying to stay ahead of the pain, but I miscalculated, so now I'm playing ketchup. Oh, and I had a really good chat with my sister last night. I'm so happy about that! We don't have the best relationship, but last night was really good and I think that we might have a closer relationship going forward. :) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) Good morning! We all survived the Weather. It's just wet and cold this morning. The dishwasher is throwing fits again. I'll try fixing it again myself, but if it does it again I'll have to get a repair guy out. I have to bring kids to tutorial, go to Aldi and gas station, and orchestra rehearsal tonight. I'd really like a nap. And the library. Have to pick up books at the library. Coffee! Edited March 31, 2022 by Susan in TN 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I have the state NAEYC conference to go to this weekend, as an exhibitor. I'm supposed to go set up today at 5(:30) pm (an hour away), or get there early tomorrow and set up at 7am. I'm weighing my options. If we do today, I'll be teaching a tutoring class in the car while dh drives and dealing with commuting traffic. If we opt for tomorrow, we're getting up at a ridiculous hour (well, I'm used to it...) but have less traffic to deal with.... 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Good morning. I have asked a lady out on a lunch date. I know her casually through local politics and have been super impressed with her. We exchanged Christmas cards at Christmas and found that we actually have some more in common than local politics. I'm hoping that we can become friends. (As I've gotten older I've decided that making friends of my own, as opposed to family friends/ being chummy with moms of my kids' friends, is more important. ) 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Servant4Christ Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 EdPo: It's that time of year when I read through my curriculum magazines and research/question stuff. Middle has such a different personality than the others that I truly wonder how that will translate to school/learning and if I'll need a different math program (not to mention other subjects) for him. I don't know if I should stick to R&S math and hopefully just tweak it as needed or if I should start with MUS with him from the beginning. He seems to learn best by "doing" whereas Oldest is a visual learner that is easily distracted by manipulatives. Middle is what our pediatrician calls a problem solver and he's very very good at it. Lol. I know it's too early to know for sure and he's only starting Pre-K stuff this Fall, but I'm trying to think ahead and plan. These are my pre-coffee ramblings for this morning. Yes, for those of you who picked up on it, I'm drinking coffee. I only made it a month instead of all 6 weeks of Lent this year. 🤦 EdPo over 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally get your point though and will likely try R&S and add some hands on manipulatives because I really like their math program. I think I'm just full of anxiety about teaching Middle in general because he is a totally different animal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
