It is tough! The majority of my friends are also teachers and my husband was a teacher for 11 years, so that is nice for me...but I also appreciate how this forum is ALL hours and only people who are actually interested or knowledgeable really respond so it’s a LOT of help usually right when you need it and it doesn’t inconvenience anyone.

Good evening everyone,

I have to rant and seek advice. It’s my 5th year teaching overall. I’m a 1st year at a new district it’s been really nice except for just some very small inconveniences: no classroom budget, too many meetings during planning time, printers are so bad that I had to bring mine from home, my district gives teachers chromebooks for laptops. I’m a a point where if I was invited to come back next year I’d say tell them no, am I crazy, is it just me? Please help

Last Spring I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. When I was diagnosed, I think I had had it for several years. My doctor put me on a diabetes med (my A1C was 10.2 and my blood sugar was 270). I knew I didn’t want to deal with the adverse effects of this disease, so I made some drastic dietary changes, started exercising, and brought my blood sugar down. I am now back in the pre-diabetic range, and I got off my diabetes meds. I lost 40 lbs. and feel great! Take care of yourselves! It’s important

Having a positive mindset is hard right now. Trying to fake positivity for others is hard. Not feeling like a failure after everything you do is hard. This year is just hard.
