And we are back!! Just was ready for a fresh start, and it was taking so long to load the page...let the banter begin! xoxoxoxoxo:thumbup::cursing::Banane34:

LOL Laura, I couldn't read it all...I saw something dipped in maple and had to scroll down!

Last night we had the windows open while watching TV (it was 83 yesterday) and my neighbor was bbq'ing...OMG, That was painful!!! I actually felt sick the tummy pains hurt that bad.

Well...TOMORROW MORNING I FIND OUT IF I AM NATIONALLY BOARD CERTIFIED!!! What a long wait this has been. I REALLY NEED SOME PURPLE POWER KIDS! Please keep me in your thoughts. I would love to have this under my belt. There are 5 pieces, and I can pass all or some of them. If it is not all, then I make a quick decision (to try and get the funding) for retaking it!

As if I don't have enough on my mind right now!

bbl

Purple power for you Pam!!

Maybe this will help distract you for a moment.. my fav. internet blogger/comic posted a new one last night on her stupid dogs and moving.

Laura, that sounds really good! Maybe your mom can make doughnut pops as her signature item!!

Alright back to bank business. I didn't get it all figured out yesterday, adn I think it will probably take a few days for me to get it all straightened out!!

What is your board certification for? I thought all was done as far as your doctorate?

Oh well, off I go................

OH MY GOSH!!!! I AM AN IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I pay my taxes quarterly since I am self employed, in Sept. I paid my federal and state, I already have them made out so I just grab them and mail them, well instead of my September federal and state I mailed my Sept and January federal, and they CASHED IT!!! That amount is huge!!! It is well over a thousand. I need to take better control of my finances and OPEN MY MAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGHHHH....................

OOOO no Jane! That sucks. Last year I paid the gas company twice and then got a shut off notice from the electric company...haha...I am not allowed to pay the bills anymore!

Good luck sorting this out sweetie!

The Nat'l Boards are above and beyond. It is a very prestigious National recognition that would allow me to teach in any state (not that I would ever leave CA).

off to work!

Morning girls~

had a complete meltdown last night. Minimal calories, National Board scores pending, dad's passing 2 yrs ago Sunday, surgery Monday, teaching, having 33 papers to grade this weekend...omg, it is too much. It all hit at once, and I don't have the caloric intake to handle it. Crying now, just thinking about the stress...need to just get through the day.

not much else going on...wish me luck!

(((Pamela))) xoxo from NC

YOU CAN DO THIS, PAM!! We are all here supporting you and purple power abounds. One day at a time.. think of all the blessing you have... Suzanne, new house, friends, family.. FOCUS on the good stuff... let go and let God.

fuck...i didn't pass

I've just requested the funding for the retake...glutton for punishment!
