Dear Classroom Heater,
I see that you have tried to step up your game, but I will win, oh yes, I will win.
Dear Facility Services,
Surely, you get tired of getting calls from the school about room 666. Maybe you should, I don't know, get up off your duff and come over and check it out. Seriously, this has been going on since you "replaced" the A/C (which doesn't work either by the way).
Dear Parents of Students,
If your child is eligible for services through our government, please get them. You can go hungry all you want but your child shouldn't.

Dear administrator,
I know your heart really breaks for this kid, and you really love him. I really love him, too. But letting him get away with doing half the work in any class (not just honors) is no way to bring him up to an acceptable level of achievement.

Dear Nesties,
Please pray for some friends of mine. One of our dear family friends died in the night, completely unexpectedly, in his early 50s. He leaves his wife and two young sons, one of whom is in the youth group Mack and I have been leading for the last 6 months. My heart is absolutely broken for this sweet family, and it really drives home that we never have a clue how much time is left.
I'm so sad today.

Chelsea,
Prayers for that family and for yours.

I'm so sorry! :-( Lots of T&Ps to both their family and yours!

Chelsea,
So sorry to hear. I will keep them in my prayers.
Dear job,
If you could get more interesting soon that would really help me out. Thanks!
Dear Mardi Gras dress,
I know I have to start shopping for you soon.

Dear Chelsea, T&Ps coming your way.
Dear OB, you said that Benadryl would help with all the itching. It didn't! I got maybe 3 hours of sleep and look like I have been clawed by a mountain lion. Plus I'm so out of it because of the Benadryl. When I call today please don't act like I'm bothering you! I can't stop itching!!!
Chelsea, yours and your friends family will definitely be in my thoughts today.
Dear Body, I give up tonight you will be getting anti anxiety meds and hopefully sleeping well through the entire night.
Dear motivational calendar on my desk, I got you in hopes of being a reminder to be positive and sadly I just read you mockingly each morning. I just dont have it in me to be a super positive, see the best in everything situation type of person.
BL - Why are you going back on the meds? The cleanse isn't over, right?

I've had the itching issue lately and Cortaid helps a bit. I almost gave Serna Anti-Itch lotions a try this weekend but I didn't want to dish out that much dough.
Its not but while I was laying awake sleeplessly last night I started thinking about what is better/worse for my overall health, not sleeping for nights on end and constantly being exhausted or a med that helps me sleep and feel better mentally.
I had some major itching on my hands before Christmas and got some Philosophy Peppermint Lotion. It cools and stops the itching pretty quick. I know it's a little pricy but, if you can swing it, it might help you out. I bought a small thing of it at the Sephora in Southlake.
T&P's Chelsea.
Dear Boss and Boss' boss-
a. I find it ridiculous that you insist that everyone needs a copy of a report I do daily. They just pile up in their box and end up in the trash can because they are too lazy to toss it in the recycle bin on the way out of the room. It's a waste and I liked the way we did it before, not that my opinion matters.
b. I think it's utter BS that you want to start a crap storm because I asked off for 1 hour in the beginning of last semester but it's okay for someone else to take a week long vacation during our busy time 2 semester's in a row and next August, it will be 2 weeks during an insane time for us.
c. Feel free to approve my vacation request for December anytime.

Dear DH-
Thanks for busting your butt on the new couch and rug so that I could work out. I fully intended on helping you out again but you beat me to it.
- your grateful wife
Dear Caremark-
While it's frustrating that you are requiring my prescription to be worded differently so that I get 3 months at a time when you've been sending me 3 month's at a time since last June, I guess I can't complain much because you've only been charging me $35 for 3 months worth when it really should be $105. Thanks for 4 free months of BC.

Dear RE,
Your appt seems so far off now, so I hope it comes quickly! And I hope I get some answers from you without it costing a super crazy amount of money!
Dear bosses,
I am so glad you are both out this morning. The time is going by much faster!

Dear Chelsea - I'm so sorry! T&Ps for them!
Dear sore throat - You kept me up all night...give a girl a break already!
Dear Chelsea,
T&P's to you and your friends.
Dear Student,
Your sisters have a stomach bug, you just went to the nurse for the same thing. Please, oh, please, oh, please don't let me catch it as well. I'm just getting over my trip to Over Fiberedville.
You're welcome! Who did you align with best?

Dear student I referenced in an earlier post,
I'm so happy all these meetings we're having about you are having any effect. Disability or no, you are not allowed to call your classmates stupid, copy that student's work, or lie to me.
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v123/magicwombat/?action=view
Good luck at your appointment, Sarah. I hope it brings you some answers.
Ron Paul was definitely in the lead and I agreed with him on everything except individual rights. Newt was second and the other two got 1's or 2's in everything.
Dear training this morning, Thanks for potentially turning my work-world upside down. I am not a fan of these new rules! I am also a bit bitter over having to get up an HOUR earlier than normal - but at least there was yummy breakfast! But now I haz teh sleepies.
Dear J, I think it's crap that because your dad is the world's poorest planner, you're even considering helping him out this weekend instead of coming home for a few days (even though it's nice of you to help him when he needs it)... that'll mean the I have to go 4 weeks on a sleepy goodbye kiss that I expected to just be for a few days. I know it's a bit selfish, but I am not very happy about this. Please just come home like you originally planned!
Thanks!! :-)

My numbers were very close (73, 70 and two 69's--insert your laugh here). However, I think I knew that I would probably be a Newt. Like I said over on the TK, they all appalled me on the last two issues, but I don't think I could stomach voting for Obama based on two issues alone.
There were a few answers throughout that I clicked strongly disagree after the first few sentences. Like the one guy who said that he wanted to set the tax rate now for the rest of time. That's completely unrealistic. And, while I get that it's part of healthcare, their responses about medical malpractice made me raise an eyebrow. I'll tell you what, if I have a doctor who kills my husband on the table due to being drunk, not having the knowledge, etc, you bet your butt I'm going to sue.
Dear Activia Yogurt,
Why did you have to vomit on my shirt?
Good luck!! I got my fingers crossed for you.
Chelsea-
I will keep them in my thoughts. That's so sad.
Teachers-
I have no idea how you guys do it day after day. I applaud you.
Knotties-
Thank you so much for jumping on my for sale stuff so quickly, but does that mean that I priced my 150+ mismatched vintage plates too low?

Wait, what? I like vintage stuff - link, please? (Yep, I'm too lazy to go over to TK & find it.)
