Ouch! even the thought of frozen fruit sets my teeth on edge. I will make do with a nice scone (obviously with jam and clotted cream).

Sometimes I feel really sorry for mothers of people who have hired therapists.
I was reading a book by someone (I keep trying to understand what the hell was supposed to be the point of sitting there talking for no reason) and it was sort of amazing how with each page I felt sorrier and sorrier for the author's mother. Also - it is allergy season and I am sneezing my head off. The cat just looked at me in disgust and jumped off my lap after the last sneezing fit __________________ Please NO @ Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

My classes end next week - I am so over zoom teaching.

Darn, nearly committed the Ultimate Couch Sin.
Saved it just in time. Zoom teaching is not the same, and I loathe it. __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |

Mine too. I also am over Zoom. But I’m worried my big 200-person lecture in the fall will be deemed by the university too large to meet in person and will be on Zoom.
Also masks will still be required on campus, making teaching harder for me. |

I enjoy seeing my students over Zoom. Keep them at bay. Plus I can pretend my camera isn't working and pluck out my mighty moustache hairs whilst they drone on.

In the US system it is the instructor that drones on.

I've been so fortunate to be teaching in person. I asked for it because I knew I would completely suck as a virtual teacher. Even in person it is not "normal." I have to keep students in rows rather than pods which is completely not my style of teaching, but I've found ways to continue to have students interact with each other. I have always had a problem learning names - I swear I sort of have that facial blindness thing. And with everyone in masks learning names has been even more of a struggle this year. I'm definitely hoping for more flexibility next year - we'll see how things transpire.

I am trying this jar thing with honey in it to help get rid of the carpenter bees eating my fence. I hope the squirrels don't figure it out and break the glass

Our school hasn't said if they are going to make vaccinations required for students or if not. I went all virtual instead of hybrid to avoid masks. I keep thinking/hoping that by the fall, masks will no longer be a thing. My summer class will be zoom - I think all of them are going to be this summer.

Artie, I'm not sure why you feel you need to be sorry. I for one don't feel like I need an apology from you. You've had a rough week since your session. You've been talking about it. Isn't that what this forum is for? HUGS Kit

I hope today is a better day than yesterday. Yesterday someone quit, just walked out in the middle of the day and was like, I'm done. This leaves us in a seriously bad position as his position is not one that is easily filled. It's sort of technical and specialized. You can't just hire just anyone off the street. I'm hopeful he will change his mind in a couple of days and come back but I don't know. I know he has a temper and I know he was struggling to control it yesterday.
Then the Exporting system wouldn't work so I couldn't get an ITN number which is needed when you ship stuff out of the country. Luckily it worked today. I emailed the help desk of the census bureau and they told me what to look for that might be wrong with my form and sure enough, that's where the issue was. I was in a really bad mood yesterday when I went home. I still feel like I'm in a bad mood. I don't want to put up with myself. Tomorrow it is payroll day at work and that is always stressful until it is done. I'm just feeling all stressed out and moody for some reasons. Plus my sister's stuff. At least my niece is keeping in touch with me so I know how things are basically going. My sister isn't doing much talking to us but she is doing lots of talking with her Pastor and deacon so I suppose she is talked out. I don't really want to see T on Saturday. Probably need to, just don't want to. Just want to curl up and sleep the day away. __________________ Dum Spiro Spero IC XC NIKA |
