Are Teachers Over Paid? - Blog Entry

17 Aug 2006 07:36 AM

Teachers are vastly underpaid and undervalued in our society. My school district raises a lot of money and charges a great deal in property taxes over 75% to go towards our schools. I'd pay more -- if it meant the teachers made it.

Thanks Valorie! You might want to review that book by Karmel if you still have it. I'm sure it would be great for others!

Solid Foods: Making Your Own Rice Cereal - Blog Entry

That's a great point! I just never actually did the math to figure out the per cube cost! I think making it yourself is just a lot easier overall -- and certainly better than the store bought brands.

Ladies, Do You Hate Your Body? - Blog Entry

15 Aug 2006 02:35 PM

Valid points from both of you ladies and I agree -- but it's important to always remember that your physical beauty or shape is only a part of the equation -- in fact, I've heard my husband tell me how terrible he looks compared to when he was in his early 20s, but I still find him very attractive -- so I guess love does soften the lens -- so to speak.

Exercise With Caution: The Heat Can Kill - Blog Entry

Make a note on your son's paperwork and talk to his kindergarten teacher yourself. Be sure to send a bottle of water to school with him. That's what I'm doing with my midget. She really doesn't do well in extreme heat and I know I don't. I'm pretty fit and just thirty minutes in the heat can have me ready to throw-up.

Robin Williams is a huge favorite of mine. He's in my thoughts and I am very proud that he is seeking to help himself before spiraling out of control as he did so many years ago. Thanks for this Libby.
