@lahdeehdah oh no, i’m so sorry. Will they rehire him if things are starting to look up again? We’re here if you need to vent/talk/cry.

jewels that sounds like something I could have done too. Glad the kids can go to school! ETA and It just sucks having to overthink every move you make, it’s exhausting.

Fortunately the a/c was an easy fix, the drain line was just backed up, so the guy cleaned it out and cleaned up the mess, no charge.
Hopefully the plumber coming tomorrow is as easy too, although there is no chance it will be no charge.

First day of school is complete. Mine was spent passing out books in the parking lot and calling those who didn’t join my google classroom. DH was in charge of the kids. T hardly has any kids we know in his class and I feel bad because there are only 2 classes and so all his friends are together.

@lahdeehdah oh no, i’m so sorry. Will they rehire him if things are starting to look up again? We’re here if you need to vent/talk/cry. No, it’s not that type of job. His position is usually dictated by whoever the head coach is. The AD seems to have made this call, so we don’t know what is happening there, but something in the water isn’t right. He has ALOT of people and contacts, though, so hopefully something pans out. He even has guys in the military that have been telling him about those jobs for years. If we need him to, he could always do that, too. He has options, but it just sucks that we have to do this again so soon. It is what it is though.

Damn lahdeedah. I'm so sorry. I hope it works out you guys don't have to move. kim22 I'm curious, how bad was the sign up rate for Google classrooms. Just checked Maddie's class and only 13/20 have signed up and school starts tomorrow. 😬

Thanks everyone. We will be fine. We have a hefty savings and he gets paid through mid October, so as long as he has something end year/first of next year we will be in good standing. I have to tighten up though. Lol.
Now I need decide if I cancel my couch delivery or not. 🤔I probably should, but I don’t want to live with my couch until next summer. 😩

inthekitty I’m at 24 out of 33. I sent a lot of emails and made a lot of phone calls. It’s still going to be a while before I track them all down.

I don't even know what to say about it at this point. I hope those parents decided on other options and aren't just letting their kids slip through the cracks.

It's like hell on earth in my hometown. The wildfires are awful this year. The pictures I've seen are insane. The entire sky is red. Last night it was smoky around here but so far fine today. Hope it stays that way.

vino he looks so grown up! As a side note - I love that desk. Where’d you get it? We looked around for desks everywhere with a specific list of things we needed/wanted; whiteboard, place for books since we were getting rid of the bookcase in his room, certain size, at least one drawer and we finally found it at IKEA, it’s the MICKE desk without the door on. We’ve had it for a couple years already and it’s held up really well and he loves it. www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/micke-desk-black-brown-s49926749/

That is pretty much the exact list of what we want, except I was hoping for more than 1 drawer. Hmmmm this might be good enough!
