Just called to refill oil at my dadβs house in MA and he usually pays about $300 for 100 gallons. That was the price I paid 2 weeks ago. Today it was $450.

This morning, I qualified to run for the DeKalb County Board of Education, District 4.
I did not plan to run and made my decision yesterday based on the chaotic rollout of redistricting. We need good representation.
PokΓ©mon Go to the polls, yβall.
That was a lot of work for this.
IYKYK.
Really need to figure out how to quit Great League so I can power up some Pokemon for Ultra League & work on that medal.
I need a Jellicent event, stat, for it. Short XL candies.
So many of these same people clutched their pearls when Trump mocked Serge Kovaleski for his disability and are engaging in the same cruelty
Assuming this is DeKalb⦠Especially when they advertise it as FREE at sign up.
We paid 1.5M for elementary athletic uniforms and they barely fit. And we are broke.
There is a reason why most school districts donβt offer elementary athletics.
3. The board is not understanding that any issues are not because of βmisinformation.β The community has rejected it already.
4. There is an abundance of scholarly research on school closures. DeKalb has followed none of it.

Listening to the board retreat on βSAPβ finally.
1. None of the board members are on the same page. Neither is the supt. No one is in charge.
2. There is a board policy on school closures. They need to legally stick to it. βSAPβ is not part of it. Weβll hold the board to following it.

If Dr. Sauce does not want to be superintendent, he does not have to take the job.
Supervising this, and making sure this plan works, is *actually* part of HIS job description & should be his number one responsibility.

Me to the DeKalb Board of Education:
Spotlight hours were my favorite feature. So disappointed.
Also, we canβt do Saturday events this spring due to kid activities. Feels really isolating as I actually like going to events in my community and being able to show up on Sundays was really nice.
Not exactly what you asked, but mad/annoyed Newsom came to Georgia to endorse Bottoms who is the candidate that has been MIA on the ground.
Yeahβ¦ I am still on βwhat an amateur shit showβ as of right now.
I have been deciding whether I should write one myselfβ¦
My pin for the PokemonGo event at the Rose Bowl today.
Leaning into my best cringe wine mom abilities.
"An Associated Press reporter was beaten by the police and detained along with three other journalists on Tuesday in Cameroon while reporting on a secretive Trump administration program to deport migrants to the Central African country, according to two of the people detained." (gift link)
I donβt know if it is more fun, but it has different things (Pixar and Avengers Campus) and because California kids donβt get a Feb break, you can just walk on rides.
Second year in CA for the break and trying something a little different this year.
This is about the ice storm in January.
I know it is a meme, but 1-2 a year, my friends and I would fly to Vegas on a Fri afternoon from NYC, stay up the whole time, take a red eye on Sun night and walk in to work Mon morning, because it was so cheap.
Not me, taking a shower, having shower thoughts⦠and realizing I have a whole platform I had written in my head if I ran for school board.
Our school is on the list and we donβt meet any of the 3 criteria.
I could go on and on about the problems with the process

Making sure my fellow DeKalb parents see this!
One thing that is apparent from ICE & SAVE Act discourse: Republican legislators & executive branch folks, who have staff do everything for them, have no idea what a Real ID is.
It shows how out of touch they are with average Americans.
The Dem candidates have been making their way through our neighborhood through meet & greets at homes. They have all conflicted with my schedule, but I have noticed that Bottoms is very absent from multiple rotations.
I have not been up on this, but the demise of the Factbook has been a big topic of discussion among high school teachers who used it as a teaching tool.
Add The Pitt and you have an excellent workplace show trifecta.
It depends on the doctor. My husbandβs prep was so easy and mine was horrible so I am switching practices when I need my next one. Worth asking what the prep is before booking an appointment!
Headline card with text on top that reads: "Autistic girls are much less likely to be diagnosed than boys are, study says." Below is a photo of a girl sitting at a desk and looking outside.
Boys are up to four times more likely to be diagnosed with autism than girls in childhood, according to a large-scale study.
