Betty Ann I've wondered also. I believe that at one point she was having technology and equipment challenges.

Message to Chloe

Hi Chloe--I went to your chloeknits site and your latest post, after more than 24 hours, still says "loading."

Are you OK? What's happening in your family? Wishing you only the best.

Chloe It's fixed, I think. There for a while, everything I typed
came out backwards. It was a dyslexic's nightmare.

Thinks are fine---choatic, problematic, but fine. One of
my houses burned down; dealing with insurance. Bad tenant

Selling your teaching materials

by Flacka

Jul 4, 2015

If you have teaching materials that you are interested in selling, there is a new FB site that has been a gold mine for me. I have barely scratched the surface of the 3 car loads of stuff I brought home when I retired last month and I have made about $300. The followers are mostly elementary teachers but occasionally there is something for older gr...See More

They were mentioned on the Main Chatboard. Anyone interested in doing another after all this time?

Down-sized from k-sized to Queen bed

by VET

Jun 22, 2015

When we remodeled a few years ago, we went from a full to king sized bed and redid most of the master.

Mr. VET has sleep apnea and had a very loud CPAP machine, so a little space was welcome;

Now, his new CPAP is very quiet and it was very difficult to get out of the high bed. Our solution was to get anew Tempera pedic(?) bed w/ a...See More

VET You are right, Betty Ann. We could have rented out the middle 1/3(plus) of the king-sized bed.

The 2 sons of the young couple love the new bed, too.

Thank you for the response, Betty Ann.

LT retired on Friday.

by Novel

Jun 1, 2015

He just became too stressed and low to continue in his post. The doctor signed him off for three weeks, which left him with one day to actually work, but he had so many holidays still owed, that he took one of those. Two weeks ago, he popped in at the weekend to drop off cakes and messages. Not one person has contacted him, not one. No wonder he wa...See More

Alison/Aus ((((((((((((Novel and LT)))))))))))) Oh how horrible. Hopefully he can take the time to destress and have the best possible response to that situation by absolutely flying from here on in.

My husband turned 60 last month. 2 days later they called him in and said "thank you for 28 years of service, but we now longer need you." So...See More

Bev Well. Congratulations to him in the long run. It's difficult when one is not recognized for one's contributions. Something I suppose his co-workers will notice once he's gone very long term.

But. After the initial sting has worn off, hopefully he will move on. And find something more meaningful to do.

Moving on is a good thing. I...See More

How is your son doing these days? From what I have been told it is better if a couple do not retire at the same time. The adjustment period is better.

He will start in January 2016 and finish in April 2016. I hope he has his head about him this time. He failed one of the courses a few time. Right now I am the only...See More
