Susan in TN Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Good morning! (Playin with the queen of hearts....still have that song stuck in my head, lol) The Great Black Walnut Branch of Droopiness was down to the ground today so I trimmed off a bunch of branches in hopes that it would spring back up but no luck so far. We will probably have to get someone to come and cut the big branch down. The original plan for the day was to leave early for the DMV but dd16 woke up with another severe headache (have you been taking your allergy medicine? No? Sigh.) so the new plan is to go later this morning if the head is feeling better. So until then I can go to UPS and give other People various instructions and tasks for the day. I've already brought trash bins out and the branches to the curb for the city to pick up - hopefully they will come by today. Coffee! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 One thing about learning that song on Ukulele is that I realized that I had most of the lyrics completely wrong, lol. But even knowing the correct words, I'm still a little fuzzy on what it's talking about. 😂 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Good Morning!! COFFEE!!~D Tuesday!! Hot,,🔥☀️🥵☀️🔥🔥☀️☀️🔥☀️🥵☀️🔥 Staying home today. I’ve been working on lessons for my home ec class. I will also try to finish the first semester curriculum for our Wednesday night program at church. I was going to try to finish the whole year, but the. it occurred to me that it might be good to just do one semester in case I need to make changes. I am not actually writing the curriculum, but adapting a curriculum to make part of it in small group format. It’s petty straightforward and doesn’t take too much time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renai Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 In this 4th/5th grade combo class, the Bible, history, and science will be taught together. Math and Language Arts is taught to each grade separately. I've so far figured out I will have a math block and reading block. If lessons topics lineup, the group will start off together. There will be centers and small groups. That's all I've got. No procedures, no routines, nothing. 🤣 I have a lot of reading to do. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) Why can't I figure out how to change the margins on a libre office document? It's driving me nuts. I hate new laptops. I have no patience for learning things that look like they should be the same as what I used before except they're just different enough that it's like learning it all over again. I better go drink some water. In other news, it's gotten hot enough outside that the ants are taking refuge in the house.

Susan in TN Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Good morning! More tea for Toto! Rocco! Bring the chocolate covered strawberries! I have Shut Up and Dance With Me in my head because dd16 is trying to learn it on guitar. But Queen of Hearts was in there earlier, lol. Dd20 is currently in my room trying on a wedding dress. Sir Pups-a-lot started barking at 4:30 this morning - I didn't see anything, though found out at breakfast that the loud thump was ds28 bumping the ceiling with his water bottle. That might have woken up the pup and then maybe he saw our neighborhood fox or something outside. But he settled down after a few minutes and I finally dozed off right before my alarm went off, lol. I think I'll have time for Aldi this morning. It seems that Wednesday morning is a good morning for finding discounted meats, lol.

Susan in TN Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Good morning! My dog does not snore. But he WILL thump his tail loudly in his sleep. Today will be checking into flights and packing and repacking and banishing goats and etc. Ds28 and I are taking ds18 on his "happy graduation/senior trip" and we have to leave for the airport at dark o'clock tomorrow. I will try to check in but there is not likely to be much cell service. (Tomorrow is Toto's birthday, fyi in case I don't check in due to the hubbub of travel). We'll be back Saturday, Aug. 5.

I'm reading a book called "What Every 5th Grade Teacher Needs to Know (About Setting Up and Running a Classroom." Go, Renai!! The best piece of advice I ever got was when I was student teaching. it was just before I taught my very first lesson. He said, “Somebody is going to be in charge in that classroom. Either you or them. And it better be you!” I remind myself of that piece of advice every time I get in front of kids. It is advice that has served me well over the years. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
