I'm At Work- Somebody Make Me Get A Grip!
Edited on Tue Nov-02-04 10:26 AM by Dinger
I'm a teacher, and if I could, I'd be at home. We are starting state testing today. I'm wearing a Kerry/Edwards shirt under my school shirt- My little way of "demonstrating."

3. *g* Good for you with the shirt. Boogers about the testing, though, both
because you aren't home and because we put way too much emphasis on testing these days. x(

5. NCLB drove my hubby out of teaching. He doesn't regret leaving
because he was burned out anyway, but he hates that our own kids have to go through school just when it's reaching new lows.

7. I had to take the day off
I had to take the day off. I knew there was no way I could give a fair day of work in the state I am.

8. AWWWWWW,
Hey, get a grip! Many, many of us are with you and we've got you back, so to speak. Bottom line, you're not alone.
