Best of luck to you! It would be great to hear how it goes for you. I am also decreasing my spending similarly, and it was helpful to see your list.

Kids are so smart! That is why I love working with them. They can be so resourceful and think outside the box so easily... while I am supposed to be the teacher, they often teach me more.

Maybe it is just the angle, but why are the kids jumping out those windows and not the ones that seem to be directly over the mattresses? I guess this shows my age: my first reaction was to ensure these kiddos were safe! It does look wicked fun!!

This is correct. This person was not a teacher and makes everything worse for all of us who actually want to encourage and educate young people. I rarely feel anger, but this kind of thing absolutely enrages me. Why would you do this to a child??

If you can't solve that problem, can you solve another slightly easier problem? Sometimes it is the level of difficulty that is too high for the moment, and you have to find something a little less challenging and repeatedly conquer that before you are capable of the more challenging problem. You may also be experiencing some anxiety because you are telling yourself you can't remember it or do it. To work on this you will have to change your attitude toward your ability and working on the easier problems may also help you gain more confidence.

These are just suggestions from a veteran teacher who works with many students with the same issues; these are the things I've seen help the most. I hope they help you!

No, pantyhose should not hurt. If they hurt, they are too small. The problem with pantyhose that don't go up so high is that they end up rolling down and bunching weirdly if they can't anchor themselves high up. They are not as sturdy as leggings, which is why they roll down.

I hope that helps!

Congratulations, Ballshapedman! That takes dedication. It's been fun watching your progress.
