+ I don't want to tell you to homeschool and I don't want to tell you public school is bad but I'm telling you that something is off. I saw a comment on this post on Facebook saying that teachers are an indicator species (telling other animals when something is not right) before a major change in the environment. Again, I swear I'm not telling anyone what to do because we probably won't homeschool forever anyway. I'm just saying...revisit your schooling options if you can.
Here's some posts I wrote that point to what's going on and why there's something not right in the schools:
Will I miss teaching this year?
+ Speaking of, there's this incentive where you can fill out a form saying your child completed a quarter of homeschool successfully and take it to the military base and they give you a $20 gift card. You're supposed to sign the paper as a parent and then you're supposed to have the "teacher" sign it and that's really weird and confusing you know? Apparently moms get together and sign each other's? Which makes no sense to me. So anyway, I was like who-do-I-get-to-sign-this? I'm both the parent and the teacher?
+ I watched the LIB weddings last night...can we call them weddings? I mean, almost-weddings? Keep scrolling if you don't want spoilers..
I think Anton was a red flag with the drinking but I think that he's also Russian and it's cultural.
I think that Ali 's friends weren't great because they were both getting divorced and that's a pattern there.
I do feel bad for Edmond. His teacher was so sweet though. KB is fine but Edmond wasn't for her and SHE KNEW THAT all along.
No strong feelings either way.
I think Megan (sorry, Sparkle Meg) is inherently too selfish to get married. This is why the boss babe culture is so dangerous. Why would she want to change her lifestyle? There's no incentive. I don't think she's a bad person, but I think she's lying to herself. It didn't work with men just like her, so she went on the show to find someone *different*. She's not going to get what she wants until she changes her pattern. She needs to adjust her life if she wants a husband and kids. (The LV bag in the background while she broke up with Jordan was exactly it: "maybe I'm too caught up in my own life"...she's so close.)
As for the others: I think Nick dodged a bullet with Annie and we're not seeing so many of their conversations. She's drinking so much that we feel like we're missing pieces but no, she's just randomly picking fights. Kacie is causing problems (not shocking). Joe has a girlfriend now. Someone is going to announce that they have a baby (I think it'll be Sparkle Meg). Anyway, Reality Receipts has all the details.
I was so annoyed by the thirsty contestants on season 9 that I actually went BACK and watched some of LIB season 1. I am floored at how much more real the men and women were. Also, they weren't covered in plastic surgery. The women had side parts! It was like a pleasant trip back to 2019 (probably the last good year, right?).
+ I went on a massive sneaker hunt last week. I got a pair of plain black adidas and then I found these ^ for $50 at the PX. I tried on Hokas, On Cloud (on cloud?), Brooks, Asics, New Balance...every shoe I could find. The $50 Nikes were absolutely the most comfortable. I think we're being sold lies by these people who insist we need multiple pairs of $160 shoes.
+Speaking of what we need: I posted the other day that when I feel really discouraged, I try to remember that the Corinthians got TWO letters from Paul. I can't even imagine how many letters our country would be getting. I feel like things are very rough right now. I could go on about it for days.
Anyway:
