Summerwillcom
I could write pages on this! :)
1. Put God 1st in your life.
2. Live your life with your family. ( Put them before school.)
3. Rest, eat as best as you can, laugh, exercise, and make time for yourself.

A reminder if you feel tingling....

I remember the dr telling me...

The world is unkind to those of us who are freakishly tall
Posted By
Summerwillcom
I had the same thought as Tori
You probably should go to classes before trying a video on your own.
Remember if it hurts, don't push it.
I have known a few people who have injured themselves ( not long term) from "pushing it."

Cheating students
Posted By

They cheated.
For the assignments that they cheated on already, I'd give them big fat zeroes.
You want to put the fear in them and other students who are cheating.
Then I'd tell them that you are going to be on...

Thanks for the laugh! :)
I used to go to Yoga classes and often amazed people with my freakish agility.
I have had it all of my life.
However, my balance has never been real good.
It has gotten worse with age.

Our public schools were slowly

Best wishes!
I used to love snow days in Ohio. Once I moved to Alaska, they did not have them here. No matter how much snow may fall or ice develops, you have to get there.

I never understood how a school could
justify this! Don't you have kids on different levels?
I have no idea how they can call this a good thing. I am sorry you have to deal w/it.

Time between evals?
Posted By
Summerwillcom
I wouldn't worry about it if it went well.
That is way cool you could give yourself 5's. LOL I never heard of an eval system where they averaged the scores.
WE only got evals yearly, so I am not sure about wait times.
