Fellow teacher here! During my first 5 years or so teaching, I was so sensitive to negative feedback. Comments were overwhelmingly positive but I’d really wince at negative comments. I’ve grown a thicker skin since then, and more importantly I’ve come to believe in myself and I know I’m good at what I do. So, experience and confidence.
I sat here and thought about it, and I truly think I’d go to the dollar store, buy a few cheap water guns, and have a water fight with my sisters and their kids. Remember how fun water fights are??? Even those cheap little water guns; doesn’t have to be fancy. Leftover money would go to popsicles.

I don’t anymore. I have all my boosters, and I live in a rural area where there are rarely crowds anywhere I go. I also have gotten over a lot of the fear I had pre-vaccine. I had covid for the first time in January and honestly I was relieved that it was very mild. Thank you scientists!! And I still have my stockpile of masks in case I ever need to leave the house if I’m sick.
Brave Little Toaster is a masterpiece!!
That is really sweet. In the past, I’ve thought it was a little weird when adults have security blankets and stuffed animals they sleep with, but you are totally right that it shows their humanity. Everyone has a need to feel safe, especially at night, and if that comfort comes from a stuffed animal, so be it!
I signed my card! Good to see that number growing.
