One week until Thanksgiving!  I can't believe how quickly this year has flown by!  DH talked to his grandparents last night and they told him that his mother is upset that we're not going to her house for Thanksgiving this year.  We alternate each year between my family and his family for Thanksgiving and his mom insists that they were at our house last year so we are supposed to go to her house this year.  Ummm, I was almost 9 months pregnant so I was not about to cook Thanksgiving.  That was the year before.  We were at her house last year.  We even recounted some of the things that occurred at Thanksgiving last year at her house but she is still convinced that we are wrong and that we're should be at her house this year.  Nope.  Not gonna happen.

This is us! We alternate holidays. Last year we lived closer to my parents(12 hours away from inlaws) so we did both with my family. This year we live I'm the same city as the inlaws so we will do both with them. I miss my family though and I think I convinced DH to have Christmas with mine, even though Christmas is an inlaw holiday this year. We just need to see if we can get time off of work. Holidays are now so confusing. I wish we would do what we want and people would not be mad. If we spend Christmas with my family again this year, my inlaws will be mad. I don't care.

I'm having major problems were I live with neighbors and the manager. Get it the fuck together people, Mr manager enforce the rules you already have in motion instead of making new rules. Dear neighbor if you do not want your own relative in your house what makes you think he needs to sleep in our courtyard...

The kids daycare teacher asked me if they would be at school for the three days before thanksgiving.  I was super confused and asked her if she was sure thanksgiving was next week.  I could swear there was another week before thanksgiving...it totally snuck up on me.

I'm super excited for Thanksgiving this year.  We missed last year since we came home from the hospital with L the day before.  We usually do both families on the same day.  This year we've decided to extend our stay at DH's family a little longer and just do my family for dessert.  My family's dinner tends to be small and people we see on a weekly basis.  His has more extended family... some of which we haven't seen in over a year.  So excited for some of them to meet L.

We just had a Thanksgiving potluck lunch at work.  So many desserts!  I think I am about to go in to a sugar coma.  If anyone needs me this afternoon, I will be curled up under my desk, sleeping it off.

I don't remember Rfred....  And I am just so sick of Kate's dad-gum mouth.  She has targeted me from the beginning.

Only when you act like an idiot, which with cancer jokes and special needs kid bashing is all too frequent.

My SPAM... I put it on the FB group too...

I have a student that I literally can not stand.

I am a horrible human being.

And then I got bumped from the FB group for it...  LOL.

Kate is seriously the most hateful person I have ever met in my life.  Miserable person. (Yep, hope you are reading this, Kate.)

-----------------------------------------------
I guess I missed it? Since when is disliking a student wrong? I'm sure you don't treat them any differently.

I'm watching Wreck it Ralph and rocking a sleeping baby. Now if the house would just clean itself.

The cancer joke was TOTALLY a lack of judgement... and I apologized and apologized for that.  I am NOT bashing kids with Special Needs.  That is my job, my family, and my passion to help people with special needs.  So don't even.

Except all the parents of special needs kids were super offended. So I guess maybe you just have poor judgment period.

Wow. Just wow. This level of immaturity in a teacher worries me.

That lovely specimen of a special needs "teacher." Thought that was obvious?

WTF did I miss?

@pearsforpoops‌ I love cocoa puffs although my all time fave is fruity pebbles! Now I just need to get knocked up again so I have an excuse to get back on the sugary cereal wagon!

sleepymonkey

Wow - the things I miss from not being part of the FB group.  I'm so confused!  But maybe that's a good thing.......

Edited the gif. I'd appreciate it if anyone who quoted it would delete it, too.

Consider this the warning.

What? I thought I could say that. I know I'm not allowed to call someone a bitch but I can say "your acting like a bitch" maybe I misread TOU.

This is super inflammatory and happened off TB. Let's keep it there.

You didn't know what was said, so please do not stoke the argument further.

Being frustrated with a student is one thing, saying you "can't stand them" is offensive, especially considering he is a special needs student. As a teacher you should be more than aware that these children can act out and be difficult. Announcing this to a group of women is just a dumb thing to do given you don't know everyone's families. So yeah, what you said is super offensive to people in general and bothers people who have children with special needs. The idea that someone would "vent" this stuff so publicly is horribly unprofessional. Vent to the people you work with. It didn't belong on FB and it doesn't belong on blast here.

I have 2 special needs brothers.  I was not making fun or mistreating him.  Him getting on my nerves has ZERO to do with his disability and everything to do with his lack of respect and arrogant behavior.

Good lord. And you don't the 2 are connected at all? I just can't. You are so far removed from reality it scares the shit out of me.

I put that there because I thought her comment about the gays was inappropriate. It had nothing to do with whatever happened on fb.

northport6

I'm not speaking solely to you on this. I asked nicely for you to drop this; I am not telling you what you can't talk about -- that part is not me speaking as a mod, that's me speaking as a person. There are people who said things in the conversation that happened off TB that spoke using their real names. I don't want to see anything accidentally come out here, on either side, from anyone. The warning is to everyone on this thread to please just let that go.

And the new TOU can be read in such a way that it could potentially restrict all profanity, so I wouldn't go tapping the TOU necessarily.

FTR, I was drawing a parallel between how you think about people and how you treat them. It's pretty impossible to treat someone you hate the same way you treat someone you like.

I never said I hated gays. EVER. As a Christian I try to treat everyone with respect and love.

ETA: I don't really feel like getting into that debate again.

As long as respect and love =/= equality.

You guys seriously need to drop it. I can't believe how much this is being dragged out.

I'm late to this party but I am going to throw this out there HE can tell you don't like him. I work with kids with special needs and am deeply offended by you saying that yes there are days when kids are super hard but if YOU don't like him YOU as a teacher needs to look at yourself. Figure his behavior out and give him alternative ways of dealing with it.

juliagulia38

So I took LO to the doctor today because she had a rash. Apparently I'm stupid because it's just eczema. It's ALL over her body. I feel bad for her. He gave me a hydrocortisone cream. What else can I do? I've been putting Aveno baby lotion on her but it's not working.

All I can say is wow....

In other chit chat I posted yesterday about the birthday shirt I ordered never arriving. The esty seller apologized and refunded my money. That is fair but now he has no special shirt for his party saturday.

I'm glad the seller refunded your money!  Since she said she sent it, is there a chance it may still get to you before his party?

@sleepymonkey she mailed it supposedly last wednesday from San Diego. I live near san Fran, no way it takes that long.

That sucks. Can you maybe go to hobby lobby and see if hey have any iron ons that would work? I know it's not as good as an etsy shirt.

I@juliagulia38 I think i will just find a cute regular shirt somewhere, maybe janie and jack.

I've always made the kids bday shirts with the printable iron-on transfers.  It's pretty easy to do... A cute regular shirt from somewhere will be nice too.
