ReplyDelete#8 I can most relate too, grin. Like I was telling my husband the other day, it sure seems I am my employers "bartender". lol
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful Sunday, my friend.
You have such a great attitude, Lori. My husband is in his last year of his elementary education degree--he can't wait to get out there and teach!
ReplyDeleteLovely answers, Lori! I am sure you are one of those teachers the kids will always remember because you listen to them! xo
ReplyDeleteYou're right. People just want to be heard. Not much listening going on these days, so that makes you a gem.
ReplyDeleteI'm shy too but people who meet me don't believe me. I just talk to people these days.

Hi Lori, I feel the same way about people. You learn something from everyone - good and bad. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend! Hugs
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your post and feel like I am getting to know you better with each post. I can imagine school is keeping you quite busy these days, but that should be over soon? How long does your school go? Of course, nothing has been normal this past year, and my hat is off to you for your skills and perseverance. I am sure your students have been blessed to have you for their teacher. I hope you have a good week. Summer is coming soon!!!
