Who is ready to get back at it on Monday? Are you going to rock January or is January going to rock you? (Here's a hint for me, I don't believe in doing dry January)

I'm definitely not ready, lol. I don't want to think about it 😆 being off from work makes me realize I could totally be a stay-at-home mom and be perfectly happy never going back to work.

First off, what the hell is "dry January"? That aside, it's the gig. Ready or not, it's coming.

I’ve learned to set my expectations low. And January usually meets them.

I plan to hit it hard with writing. My dual language learners will work on getting their English vocabulary up to help with comprehension for their writing. Usually I get multiple languages when they write, and now I'll be expecting it all in English to work on making sure they have the words to convey their ideas. I hate state exams, but I love seeing their writing improve. I always let them know it's helpful for the test, but needed for life. I'm so excited when they test out of title reading with me. Together we are a team! 💡
We can do this!📚☺️📖

I am ready for the return to routines and my students are curious little learners, so I am looking forward to the joy they bring to the classroom. January can be lots of fun… wonderful winter!

I need to stay focused on creating two great units for C3 of my NBs. I need to manage interruptions and distractions. But I’m ready to get back going!

I wasn't really ready but then I kinda missed the daily routines of my classroom, getting up for work, and then returning home to my family in the evenings.

I’m not sure what you mean when you say “dry” January. I knew I had to go back so I would describe it as easing back toward the purpose. After returning a couple days, I was fine. The kids were fine as well. They went back to their regular activities and the routine helped them.

I’ve been retired now for a couple years, and now I couldn’t imagine getting up that early. My feet don’t hit the floor anymore before 8:30. After 28 years in education, I love it!

There’s a debit card that I’ve been using for the past 4 years and it beats out some of the cash back credit cards. It’s the Cash app debit card. I haven’t heard people talk about it in the card community and it could save people a bit of money - 10% cash back. I posted about it on my Instagram HerMillennialMoney if you want to learn my tips and tricks with the care.

We have sales people in Canada and the US, the Canadians make 150K CAD and down here it’s 150K USD, the Canadians argue they should be making 30% more than the US colleagues to be equal bc of the exchange! I explain the salary is dependent on the market data for them in Canada, WHERE THEY LIVE, and you can’t compare it to the US employees and the market data down here. Overall they are both in the 75th% for total comp. for their industry. Am I wrong?
