@scpeba why is it so hard to get the verification of the amount I pay each month for premiums and when this started for BCBS? They said to reach out to you. You have no email option so here I am.

@dunkindonuts I hope you pay Nicholas at the front counter at the Dunkin’ at Okahumpka Travel Plaza at the Florida Turnpike well. He’s alone at the front busting this bottom making drinks and taking orders nonstop for a never ending line of people and is kind as can be.

@SharpBalloons my almost 5 year old is your biggest Balloon Builder fan. It’s almost her birthday- do you have any merchandise we can order? 🎈❤️

All the second graders I taught are now in prom photos and I can’t handle how long it’s been since they were little babies in my classroom. 🥹🥰

Just know that the phrases “in it for the outcome, not the income” and “it’s for the kids” are just adorably clever ways of exploiting the fact that educators care deeply about their students, and guilt them into accepting that they are grossly underpaid and overworked.

@waitamin_what You are always welcome here. Holidays, birthdays, Thursdays, my home will always be your home too. ❤️

Today was an emotional day. The parents of a child I started tutoring this December, asked me to go over with them the ed and psych reports for a school evaluation they had requested. Telling the mom that after reading the reports my suspicions are stronger that the child has dyslexia. She cried as her husband tried to comfort her. Here is the frustrating part: We are talking about a 2nd-grade child who struggles in every area of reading but who is hard-working, and motivated, with two caring and loving dedicated parents who sat in K, 1st, and 4 months of 2nd-grade classes, and if it wasn't because this mother's institution and initiative this child's problem would have just continued to go unsupported at school level. Why do schools keep playing this waiting game? How much failure does the child need to be experiencing before we decide to provide them with the support and instruction that they need and deserve? WHY do we keep letting kids drown to then try to rescue them?

Get this girl a @HeggertyPA contract. Do they hire 4 year olds?

@historyinmemes Steve Harvey got a shocking call on his show, and went crazy when he realizes who it is Steve Harvey isn’t one for surprises, but his staff didn’t care. On his birthday, Harvey got a surprise he never expected. A phone call that would stop him cold. When he was 26-years-old,

Amazon just gave me an alert for a “really hot deal just for me” and it was a scanner so that the level of fun adult I am.

Took the girls to see the Eras Tour because they love Taylor Swift music and the first question by the 4 yo was if the smoke coming out of the stage were geysers. 😬

This photograph captures Harriet Tubman at her residence in Auburn, New York, in 1911, just two years prior to her passing. I only recently learned of her struggles with seizures, a result of a piece of metal lodged in her head. As a teenager, Tubman endured a traumatic incident when a slaveowner struck her head with a 2-pound lead weight, originally intended for another fleeing slave. Tubman recalled this attack as "breaking my skull," leading to agonizing headaches and seizures that intermittently rendered her unconscious. Remarkably, despite these challenges, she remained dedicated to her work on the Underground Railroad and her service during the Civil War. Her reputation was so renowned that escaped slaves knew to wait patiently for her to regain consciousness if she ever collapsed, which she always did. Additionally, Tubman carried a pistol, which she would wield when runaway slaves hesitated or considered giving up. With the pistol pointed, she presented them with a stark choice: continue their escape with her or face immediate death. Remarkably, she never lost anyone on the Underground Railroad. After the Civil War, Tubman's efforts allowed her to contribute significantly to her community, aiding veterans and freed slaves. In the 1890s, she underwent brain surgery to remove the metal fragment from her skull. Surprisingly, she opted to forgo anesthesia, instead choosing to bite a bullet, emulating the Union soldiers she had seen endure amputations. In her own words, she described the procedure as the doctor "sawed open my skull, and raised it up, and now it feels more comfortable." Years after her own escape from slavery, Tubman returned to rescue her enslaved husband, only to discover he had remarried and had no intention of leaving his new wife. Despite her initial frustration, Tubman chose not to create a scene and continued to lead numerous other enslaved individuals to freedom. Her remarkable life came to an end in 1913, surrounded by friends and family. Her last words to those in the room were, "I go to prepare a place for you."
