Dixie, that's great about your birthday and that sucks about your daughter. My son just recovered from a 3 day fever. He is still coughing a little.

I went to work, did a 90 minute presentation on the new Math curriculm and exercised with my coworker in a mall after work due to the damn rain.

Nothing exciting to report.

I am seriously thinking about changing my job in the teaching field..I would love to be a curriculm coordinator. I have been taking on mroe and more responsibilities in that field. I am really getting unmotivated with teaching itself.

Can you apply for the position if it is available? Go for it!

completely understandable.

I do plan on being a professor way later on in life - graduate level or maybe senior level. I feel sorry for k-12 teachers because I can see how it can be frustrating and exhausting to teach many kids who do not care about subjects.

I would prefer Curriculum Coordinator over teacher because students do care and listen to you. Same reason for me. If I'm teaching graduate students, they do care and are very willing to learn. well maybe... maybe not :lol: I guess we'll see down the road, eh?

My hearing used to fluctuate depending on my migraines. It took me many years to figure this out because I often have painless migraines. It took a Dr at
Johns Hopkins to figure this out for me.

I would LOVE to have painless migraines. The migraines I have now, leave me in pain for days. Sometimes bad enough that I get physically sick. At that point, I pray to God to make my head explode just to relieve the pain. :shock: so far that hasnt been granted, maybe with good cause!
 
I went to work, came home, changed clothes, took my DD to a birthday party until she got sick again, and we had to leave early. Before we went to the party she said she felt fine, then, wham. It hit her like a subway train. We are back home now and she's sleeping in the bed beside me.

Take care of yourself as well as DD.
I didn't sleep for almost two days, but am about ready to hit the sack.

Surprisingly, I slept good last night and I was actually awake about 45 minutes before my alarm goes off. I got started on a book until my alarm did go off. =/

As for me and DD, we're holding in there. I'm just glad she's able to go to the doctor when she needs to as she is in ARKids1st. Me? I just suck it up and deal with it. I can't afford to go to the doctor or take time off from work. Last spring, I had the flu, but still went to work anyways. Never missed a day although I felt miserable.

One would think a painless migraine would be better. If you think about it, a painful migraine you take pain meds and go lie down. A painless migraine you don't realize you are having a migraine and it persists for days until your hearing is suppressed, your eyes start doing weird things, your thinking is getting foggy, your balance is off. Then, when the pain does finally kick in, you are already in a full blown migraine and starting to think you might be better off dead.

Seriously, I prefer the pain because I can then take my migraine meds and go lie down. Life is much better much faster that way.

The additional problem that comes from being in that situation is that you can pass it on to co-workers and around and around it goes. I was always lucky enough to be able to afford to stay home when sick even if not paid for those days off. I never did like the way some that made more than I would come in anyway and expose all of us.
 
Learnt how to fingerspell in BSL. A small step but a step nonetheless :)
 
Went to morning job, taught kids, went to teach at the YMCA. While there I had to take care of a black widow, and a VERY cute ring neck snake. All that fun before I started teaching my class! My boss was thrilled :). She hates spiders, and snakes. I just don't see why. It has been a fun day so far. Now my son and I are going to look at lego sets. Later back to work, and maybe Deaf Coffee!
 
spent about 15 minutes cleaning snow and ice off my car so I could get to work. Not fun!
 
Remember from my previous posting about my "donation" time between Nov and Dec, whew.. some are repeated every year and what I have done so far:
AllDeaf
Susan G. Komen for the Cure
American Cancer Society
Child Fund International
Operation Smile
St. Jude
ASPCA
Camp Good Days & Special Time
Canine Companions For Independence

Few more to go....
 
Finished my xmas shopping today for two of the kids. Two more to go and I will be set :)

I've had some migraines so severe that I wondered it it was possible to die of a headache.

My migraines seem to be stress related. They always come back when I have to spend time with parents for several weeks.

Of course I wil apply as soon as it is available. Either that or become a stage setter for realtors. I am thinking of going back to school for that starting in the summer.
