It's very sad how children are treated in these country's ... instead of fighting for Oil Rights in the middle East this is what we should be fighting against....

ya know what happens if ya play a country song backwards???
The guy gets his truck back, his trailor back, his job back, his wife back, his boat back & his dog back !
LOL
I am not much into country. Those patriotic songs make me ill... although I did cry after 9/11 when I saw the big flag going up at one of the car dealers here and town to Bruce Springsteen's Born In The USA...
I also like John Mellencamp Cougar what ever is name is now Rocking In The USA. and of course the old Grand Funk Railroad song redone by Lenny Cravitz American Woman....

I'm working my dream job.
I am a state preschool teacher. I LOVE IT. I love going to work in the morning, getting the classroom prepared, being with my awesome co workers, seeing the childrens smiles when they come in, watching their faces light up when they make something or write their name, watching them laugh so hard when I dress up or say something funny, taking them on trips, watch their faces as they eat something they are unsure of, I love it when they are sad and just want a big hug, when all I have to do is kiss their boo boo and all is okay.
I can go on forever about how much I love my job. I have been doing this for five years now ... and trust me something happens everyday when I say "this is why I love my job".
Is this in the middle East? Wish we had State Preschool's here in the US. I don't know about anywhere else in the US ,but the pay stinks in Arizona. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education.. I wish they told us in college after 15 years of work experience you will still only be making $10 an hour..... I know it could just be the center I am working for, but if I quit and go to another center I will probably only be making $8 max as a new employee, plus I know what garbage goes on at my center with politics in the upper management.
My dream job would be to own my own big house with a room for a preschool and take care of children at the house and maybe have a few of my own before the biological clock runs down...
But... I work 4 jobs and don't think a kid of my own would be good since I am taking care of one big kid now called The Husband.
Another dream job I would like to have is to be a travel documentary guide like Rick Steve's or Globe Trekker.
Another dream job would be to work as a personal trainer. I work at the YMCA once a week teaching body conditioning now, but would like to go into full time.
I would like to be working in the media arts too, but for now until this AOS is over I will be slaving to get a paycheck, maybe when Anton gets his EAD he will be able to work and I ease off the work and go back to school.
Thanks for listening to my rant,

I don't think Adam was responsible. He knew the conscequence of eating the apple, and was told not too. He made a poor choice . He knew what he was doing and didnt' care. Why are women usually right because we think through our actions before doing them ,hopefully anyway....

It doesn't work for me, I guess it's my math dyslexia....

In the sentiment's of a bumper sticker I saw the other day:
THE ONLY BUSH I TRUST IS MY OWN!

Sorry you are down in the dumps... My husband is too. I don't know what's up with him. He started obsessing about money again, which he constantly obsesses about, he's the one without the job being the AOS'er.. I think he's bummed out about jobs too. I haven't gotten two words out of him all day.
British TV rocks, I like to watch the oldies on PBS: Are you Being Served, As Time Goes By, and Coupling..
I have always loved Benny Hill and Monty Python as well.
Try to find some things to do around the house, maybe write a few letters,ect....
Time will pass and things will get better.
Here too! LOL

My TV still works from the 80's . I bought a used flat screen last year from a friend and it died, so it's back to the old TV with the dial and no remote.
Things were built to last back then.
Also no cable, we can get enough TV channels here in Tucson to not have cable. If I had cable I'd be watching old sit coms like Gilligan's Island and MASH all day.
I don't have an I POD since Cd's are fine with me, and I still have dial up internet, although I think I would like high speed internet just don't have the extra bucks for it.
I have a cell phone although it's considered out of date, but if I can receive and make calls in an emergency what else do I need.

Happy Saint Patty's Day. Tucson was founded by an Irish Mercenary in the Spanish Army way back when so you can go to a Mexican Resturant and order Green Beer today!!!!

Isn't it weird, you spend months away pineing for the day when you will be married and together , finally the day arrives and then he has to go away for a day or two.
Anton is building a house out in the desert and I work in town so we spend one or two nights away from each other each week. It was weird a couple of weeks ago on a Friday night I went out with a girlfriend to a concert and she brought her boyfriend after I thought it would be a girl's night out. Usually when Anton's gone I don't eat or I eat cereal for dinner.
I hate being alone at night ,although lately I have been dogsitting across town and Anton has been staying either at the land or here at my house so I haven't seen him much this whole week.
Have you seen the Motorcycle Diaries, that's a good one and of course Sideways is good.
Wish we lived in the same neighborhood I would come over and watch movies with you...

From the Arizona Daily Star- By Becky Pallack
A U.S. Border Patrol agent died in the line of duty Tuesday evening when a car he was in slammed into a cow in Western Pima County, an official said Weds.
Senior Patrol Agent Nicholas Greenig, a four year agent from Montana, and another agent were on duty in a plainclothes patrolling a section of Arizona 86 near Why, 110 miles west of Tucson when the accident occurred around 8 PM said Gustavo Soto, a spokesman for the Border Patrol's Tucson Sector.
The other agent suffered minor injuries and was recovering at a hospital. That agent's name was not released. Officials couldn't say which agent was driving, but said both were wearing seat belts.
The Tohono O' odham Police Dept. is investigating the accident....
Moondancer's comment.
For those not familiar with this area, this a large expanse of desert with free range cow. 1 cow per 5 acres. Not so easy to hit into a cow, unless the agents were speeding at high speeds, drinking or doing other activities.

The moon was full last night and sopposedly eclipsed in some parts of the world/US? Unfortunately, Tucson was cloudy last night and I couldn't tell if it was eclipsed or not.
Anyone see anything worth reporting?

I haven't heard about the co-sponsor not being able to help out, but the sponsorship level is 125% above the poverty level, so for a family of 2 you and your fiance'.. it will be about $16,030 .
You are required to be a sponsor for three years and sign an affidavit of support stating that your fiance' will not accept government help and you will be responsible for this person while they are in the US...
Hopes this helps,

This is the way I was taught too, breaking kids up into small groups is the only way I can think of to keep the teacher from going crazy...
I even do it with my kindergarteners.
-
The Leperchaun Trap, the kindergarteners were doing it at our school. I like your idea...
I am sorry to hear about your frustration with Nick's reading. It's not right that they have taken him out of the remedial reading when he's not ready and I am sure you are trying to help him out as much as possible.
I have worked in childcare 18+ years and I know how teachers have to deal with all sorts of stuff.
My only suggestions are to keep on working with him at home, have him read easy readers to you at night, read, read, read to him, have him read cereal boxes at breakfast, billboards while driving, make it fun and a game and just keep on encouraging him with the other subjects that he excels at..
Good Luck,

I have no fear!!
Anton is a tight wad with $. He has to justify every penny spent and he seems to think I spend too much money. I had to get a new crown the other day and he was upset, why don't I just get the tooth pulled.
I said, I take care of myself, if you choose to get your teeth pulled well that's up to you. I will pay the $ to keep my health.
He also buys the cheapest of everything in the grocery store and reads the grams and compares prices to the point I do not shop with him anymore.
Other than that he's a great guy...

We just sent copies of the passport pages that pertained to our RFE which was for evidence of Relationship.
These pages showed when Anton arrived in the US and left the US.
No more hassles after that.

Right after we got married we went over to the court house and got a certified copy of our marriage certificate.
The county clerk noterized and stamped it as official.
Don't know how it works in Texas.
This is Pima County, Tucson Arizona.
Go to the court house and ask for a certified copy.
good luck,
