My husband is being mean! He told me to stop sniffling. I get sniffly in the morning and I'm a major throat clearer and it's worse in the AM. He's not usually up with me at this time so he's not used to it. I told him if he didn't like it he should just go back to bed. RUDE!
Oh, so get this! Yesterday we had a teacher's meeting after school. The superintendent and treasurer dude were giving a presentation for the levy we have going on the ballots in November. It's a renewal of an operating levy that DOESN'T raise taxes. So they were talking about all the things that it will help pay for and all the costs we have. One of the slides in the presentation was about technology. The bitch, I mean head of technology who was presenting this slide explained how a computer in our district usually has a 15 year cycle...starting as a teacher computer then going to a lab then wherever and finally to a student and then the trashcan. Well, isn't that interesting! We've been waiting and waiting for computers to be installed in our classrooms (student computer) to jump start this program to prepare students getting ready for the Ohio Graduation Test. The computers - we thought - were coming from a computer lab that they had shut down in the administration building in our district. Computers, by the way, that were top of the line. We find out about a week ago that they actually ordered NEW - brand new - computers for this. Meanwhile - these other computers are just sitting around, I guess. Hmm...where did that money come from? Oh, and then they have the gall to ask the teachers in the district to donate $20 each for the campaign fund for renewing the levy because they need approximately $6000 and have run out. Um...I don't think so. I'm on a tight budget and am saving up for my own brand new computer. Suck it!
How 'bout a puppy!? We're on to "D"s now so, meet...
...but I better head to work. Later! Oh, and it's take your teddy to work day!
