C'mon spill any good news here! Or any hopeful news!

My good news? I have discovered these delicious almonds. Maui onion and garlic flavored. Yum!

Anyone?

DH spotted an ad in the paper from Bowling Green State University offering people with a B.A. & 24 hrs. of math or science an accelerated summer session to get accredited in education, followed by enrollment in their Masters of Education program. The very best part? At no cost!!!!

He absolutely loved substitute teaching for the middle school math and science classes. He's been trying to find a way to get accredited ever since. But, so far, everyone has told him he would need to go back to get a second B.A. in Ed before he could either receive accreditation or enroll in a Masters program. There's no grant or loan money for a second B.A., so up until this point he's been stymied.

He meets with them on the 16th, and could be teaching in the fall. Woo and frickin' Hoo!!!!!

That is great! I know how hard it is to get a teaching degree later on! DH has been getting his BA in history but had to drop the education major due to him not being able to student teach. He works full time during the day and there is no way we could afford it.

I hope he can teach in the fall! Good for Mr. Wolf!

I'm looking along the same lines here, with an MBA looking for a teaching position in undergrad/HS business. Will be meeting with a close friend in this line tomorrow to open some doors.

Posted by mysticwolf on 05-10-06 at 08:14 PM
Good luck! I'll keep my fingers crossed that IN is more sensible than OH is. Here they don't care if you have a BA or an MBA. If it's not in Ed you can't teach except as a sub. Even then, unless it's a subject that you have your degree in, you can't sub in the same class for more than 10 days in a row.

When they had dh subbing for a math class for the entire first quarter they had to play games so that it looked like he didn't have the class more than 10 days straight. They'd call in another sub & call dh in for a different class, then they'd switch them after they came in so that he got his class back.

See, his degree is in Business Admin. & his 20+ yrs. of experience is in computers. According to the state that's not math. Asshats.

A DJerk on a local radio station took his rivalry with another DJ to a whole new part of the sub-basement by threatening to molest his rival's four year-old daughter, and apparently followed that up by passing out directions to her preschool, all on the air. Why is this good news? Because DJerk was suspended, pending being fired, pending being blackballed, and possibly even being brought up on criminal charges for threatening the welfare of a minor. Yes, we've got free speech. In this case, this included the radio station having the freedom to tell him to shut up.

1) My sister is relocating from 2,000 miles away to 2 hours away, in June. She's bringing my perfect li'l niece and nephew with her. Yayyy!!

2) After two years, my modification for child support request (filed July 13, 2004) might actually be going forward. *sigh* (Absent parent--her father-- pays $168/ month from an old, open order from 1997, and has for a year and a half, and nothing before that.) Although, I am told that I should get an attorney (now? after two years?) and that this will take several more months. Yeah. "Dad's" upset that I invoked my legal rights -- he doesn't want to pay support. His wife isn't terribly fond of that idea, either. (Awww) I am being blamed for "causing stress in their marriage" over this. Too funny! (Daughter born: 1989. They got married: Sept. 11, 2000) --I haven't spoken to him in almost two years. He has a telephone relationship with our daughter. Last he saw her? Dec. 2004. Next visit? Dec. 2006. (if he doesn't cancel, again.) Nice guy, eh?


::drumroll for BEST news::

3) I never married my daughter's father!!

It's on my blog but figured I would post it here too.

We are adopting this lovely, older gentlemen from a rescue in Nevada. His name is Bear. He's 8 years old and he's flying to his forever home with us the day after tomorrow. The rescue took him to the vet yesterday to get his health cert. to travel and he weighs a whopping 98 pounds. Thea is going to be absolutely beside herself with a new playmate. I hope our house survives.

DH is thrilled that his name is Bear. The Grateful Dead's soundboard guy was named Bear and then you have the perfuctory dancing bears. I like to think he's the latter.

AHA! I was super close! What's the muffin part?

We have a blue bi-color lynx named Ryan and I'm very familiar with all the colors. I recognized the tail and the eyes immediately.

Ragdolls are super talkitive. Ryan will answer me almost every time I say his name. They aren't very independant, AT ALL. Cling to you like Saran wrap. Ryan doesn't do it quite as much anymore due to Thea following me everywhere but sometimes he follows with her. Once we get Bear, I am going to have a herd of animals following me around the house. LOL!

"RE: Share your good news here!"
Posted by DebCapsFan on 05-11-06 at 02:43 PM
Ragamuffins are very similar to dolls, but are their own breed.

"RE: Share your good news here!"

Ryan's breeder said that male Rags are especially clingy to their humans. The females not so much. I see that with my in-laws two female Ragdolls. Congrats on your new addition!

Ummm...asking an interpreter to leave a hospital setting is illegal under (ADA) American Disabilities Act. The interpreter is required to remain for the time that the child/ parent requests interpreting, regardless of who is paying for the interpreter! If the hospital wanted the interpreter to leave to save money, (disgusting, if that's the case) the hospital broke the law. To be fair, the interpreter is supposed to know that, too. (and probably does) -- Were you assigned an interpreter from the hospital? or did you use an agency? If you used an agency, and the interpreter LEFT before services were done being needed? Please report the interpreter AND the hospital.

My second language--American Sign Language.

I am Canadian. We have stinking Canadian Disability Act. ADA is way better there. Long way to fight and improve in Canada. I have lived in USA for two years and I loved it there. The malls have TTY in USA and sadly most malls in Canada do not have any!!!! Just airports.

I report this incident to Canadian Hearing Society. Hospital asked for an interpreter as per my request.

Interpreter stayed with me until 2 pm and she is good.
