I thought about a PhD, then I "un-thought" about it. if I had a dollar for every time I’ve “un-thought” it, student loans would have never been an issue 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dallasdan Posted November 17, 2023 #104 Share Posted November 17, 2023 @TxTeach79 does school get out at 4:05, or do you stay after school a certain amount of time each day? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

School ends at 3:45, our contract time ends at 4:05... depending on the day, there are tutorials, games, performances, grading to get done, lessons to plan, etc. Last night I was here til 9 working basketball games. But today? Cruise day? I'm out the door at 4:05 sharp. Well, once my crosswalk duty ends. But it'll be right around there. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edspec Posted November 17, 2023 #106 Share Posted November 17, 2023 @TxTeach79 We did the Sky Midnight Sun cruise in June, absolutely our best cruise ever. I don't know if you've been to Norway but the best way I can describe it is the little villages at Epcot except they're real and there's fabulous scenery surrounding them. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's near the top of my list! This is great to know.... hopefully this cruise goes well and I can nudge @HelloItsMeB in that direction and I can find a decent deal, because it's squarely on my radar. That cruise is one of the big reasons I'm branching out to Princess here 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edspec Posted November 17, 2023 #108 Share Posted November 17, 2023 That cruise pushed me firmly into the Princess camp. The cruise itself, the activities, and I liked being able order drink package items to my room...well, there were 3 am cheeseburgers as well. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had me at "3am Cheeseburgers".... and yeah, the room service drink thing seems great. Really looking forward to some balcony time 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 17, 2023 Author #110 Share Posted November 17, 2023 There aren’t a lot of conventional extrensic perks in this gig, so when freebies come, you jump on em. Hopefully the Horizon Court rivals these culinary delights…. Three more classes to go… Map Quiz day proceeding smoothly thus far… 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 17, 2023 Author #111 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Update: sewage has backed up through the 8th grade bathrooms again. Ironic considering there is currently an investigation ongoing as to who relieved themselves in the most evil of ways on the 7th grade girls' bathroom floor. Pep Rally is in jeopardy. Thereś only one administrator on campus. Chaos abounds... but a cruise looms. 7 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 17, 2023 Author #117 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Nice thing about pep rally schedule Friday is having a conference period adjacent to my lunch. Running to the store to grab a couple last minute essentials for the road…. This way I can come straight home after work and get to relaxing and packing…. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xkritter Posted November 17, 2023 #120 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Depending on what you are looking for we also really like Shrimp n Stuff and Hubcap Grill ( although we prefer the Kemah location to Galveston). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point they ordered us some of those fluorescent vests and little stop signs. Not only was it cut for a skinny gymnast, it looked ridiculous.

That was a 13 hour grind of a day, but we are one day closer…. I can almost taste it! LOL DH can relate...I sure was on the other side for a number of years w/ our kiddos too. Good times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you should get extra points for teaching junior high. Thank you for doing God's work. I hope you enjoy your cruise. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
