  • @gingermama29 oh no way! I actually have taught for the last 5 years in elem gen music (pk-5), and this is my first year in middle school choir. Nice to meet you :smile:

  • @kelsey_ruth326  I agree. Have a great first day! :)
  • @singing_koala hello and welcome 👋 well I definitely feel left out of the teachers club here haha 😆 I am not a teacher. That’s cool that your both teachers. Sounds like you have a busy house with 4 pets lol. that’s cool. I only have 1 cat and 1 dog. I’d love more cats though lol. I also struggle with patience like you haha 😆 Feel free to join in on the other daily threads. 
  • @mindyb2019 I’m glad I’m not alone in my lack of patience!! Yes, our 4 pets are very busy & they are the reason we also have a robot vacuum! Thanks for the welcome. :)
  • @singing_koala man I only have 2 pets and I need to get a robot vacuum lol 😆 
  • My husband refuses to get a robot vacuum.  He must just want to complain about the dog hair!  :D. I was a music teacher for two years, too! ...before life brought a career change. 🤷 Now I'm just counting down the days / weeks / months???? Till I can SAH. 🤞🤞

    Welcome @singing_koala thanks for jumping right in there!!!
  • @BusinessWife lol well I will tell you that our robot vacuum CHANGED our LIVES. I can never go back!! Good luck on that front 😆 maybe he’ll cave one of these days. 

    FX for your SAH days 😊 

    @kikigreat0 sounds like y’all have some really sweet kids that are going to love all over a potential sibling one day! FX for you and I hope your stay here is short. 
  • Thank you @singing_koala! They are very sweet despite the older two’s occasional teenagerness coming out 😂 I know they’ll be really excited. Hoping your stay here is short as well, and also, I would looove a robot vacuum! Haha
  • @kikigreat0 Hi there and welcome 😁 eloping can also be romantic and beautiful ❤️ That’s awesome that you lucked out with the two daughters from your SO.

She has also made numerous comments about wanting to have a sibling lol.. She loves babies so much and would be really good and help out. FX for you and really trying this month.

    @NamelessAria I wouldn’t call yourself new...you’re just coming back! :)
    It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
