Yes, this will be the first time mentioning a mistake because it's the first time I've seen a mistake on my daughter's paper. The other errors are on papers she sends home to the parents about what will be happening in the classroom. I have spoken to her once about something she did to my...

Kathryn - We've had 8 school days in the past two weeks. In that time, dd's class celebrated the 100th day of school with a giant snack mix filled with junk food, had two birthday celebrations (cupcakes), had a valentine's day party, did a project using conversation hearts which they ate and...

Maybe I can wait until the end of the school year to inform the principal so it doesn't affect my daughter. I can save up a bunch of papers to show it's not an isolated error. Thanks again! Erica

I showed the paper to my three teenage boys and they laughed at what the teacher did. I can't believe this woman is teaching the wrong thing to second graders! :mad: I thought about sending it to the principal, but don't want to get the teacher mad and have her take it out on my daughter...

Thank you! This was actually on a test. This teacher is terrible and it makes me so mad! :mad: I have had to tell my daughter several times this year not to believe what the teacher says and to listen to me. Erica

My daughter (2nd grade) was marked wrong for this: My mom and I ate at Burger King. The teacher wanted it to be written: My Mom and I ate at Burger King. She wanted the m to be capitalized in mom and I don't think that's correct, but wanted to make sure. By the way, we...

Carnie Wilson and Chynna Phillips aren't related, but they both had wacky fathers. Erica

This is off the subject, but why do you think that saying healthy food is too expensive is BS? I believe that healthy food is way more expensive than processed foods and fatty cuts of meat. When my husband was laid off, the first thing I did was change the way my family of 6 ate to save money...

How about those single serve containers of applesauce, pudding, jell-o? I'd suggest some Advil, too. :p Erica

Pam, that is so sweet. Thanks for sharing that story. :) Erica

I did each of the Month 1 workouts 4 times before moving on to Month 2 - I did each of them once a week, so it took 4 weeks. No reason - just thought it would be closer to the suggested rotation. Erica

My favorite is Pure Cardio in Month 1. I like it because each move is just a minute and isn't repeated so I really give each move my all knowing I won't have to do it again and then look forward to the next move. It is tough, though! :) Erica

I have both and would definitely choose Insanity over BBL. I love Insanity and think it's a wonderful program with lots of room to grow. When I'm done with an Insanity workout, I feel like I've worked my core, upper body and lower body and gotten a great cardio workout and it's so challenging...

Maybe you don't see what's happening, but the drama is here for a reason. It's disturbing to me the way that some of the women treat each other on this forum. Erica

I totally agree! Erica

Something else I thought of....years ago, I was anorexic and started to lose control and began binging on refined foods - granola bars, puffed rice, cereal, etc. I was upset about this loss of control and went to my doctor and was prescribed Prozac. The Prozac stopped the cravings very quickly...

Nice job! Erica

Stebby - another problem I find with the kids in school is that they see all the junk that the other kids have and then they want it, too. All of my kids were perfectly happy with their healthy lunches until they saw what other kids brought to school. After that, it always became a battle...

Yes, I was disappointed in these workouts. I expected more intensity and sold all but HiiT (which I do like a lot). I was most excited about the MMA workouts and didn't like any of them at all. But, I got my money back so I'm happy. :) Erica

I've never paid attention to the star ratings. I didn't even know they were there until people started making issues out of them. I've never rated a thread and have no interest in doing so. :p Erica
