If you are afraid of gaining weight this year, remember to drink wine before each meal.

This takes away the fear. #wineverse

@IAm_THEPaulina I need more wine in my life.
@amandacsb2 Nah, you don’t. You burn it all with so many workouts throughout the week!
@IAm_THEPaulina I need some more intense workouts. Or ones that last most of the day.
@amandacsb2 @IAm_THEPaulina
You could come here and help shovel snow.
@Dan_Blue_OC2CO @IAm_THEPaulina I do have the boots for it! Lol
@amandacsb2 @IAm_THEPaulina
Good boots are essential.
@IAm_THEPaulina @amandacsb2
Of course! There is plenty of snow
@Dan_Blue_OC2CO @amandacsb2 - oh good, I just don’t go out to shove snow before 7am though 😜 🙃
@IAm_THEPaulina @Dan_Blue_OC2CO let’s wait until 9. Give the snow plow time to come by to move most of it. Lol
@amandacsb2 @Dan_Blue_OC2CO - good - I need my me time in the mornings I normally don’t talk until my first vcall of the day
@IAm_THEPaulina @Dan_Blue_OC2CO kids and I don’t talk in the mornings either. It’s so quiet!
@jaxPYL @IAm_THEPaulina @Dan_Blue_OC2CO they are teenage boys. There’s more grunting and growling happening. Lol
I do get “we are ready” when it’s time to leave for school. 🤣
@amandacsb2 @jaxPYL @IAm_THEPaulina
Many highschool kids grunt and growl in the mornings. Our job is to grunt and growl louder until they start doing their work.
@Dan_Blue_OC2CO @jaxPYL @IAm_THEPaulina 😂😂😂 that’s funny. I’m glad I don’t have to grunt or growl at mine.
@amandacsb2 @jaxPYL @IAm_THEPaulina
There are two kids (the ones battling each other) that come in foul moods every day. We now have strict schedules to separate them as much as possible. Thankfully, the more aggresive one graduates in about 85 days. Not that we're counting.
@Dan_Blue_OC2CO @jaxPYL @IAm_THEPaulina 85 seems like a long time when it’s dealing with a violent kid.
@amandacsb2 @jaxPYL @IAm_THEPaulina
Several of our kids can get violent when they are escalated. These two would get violent with each other daily if they were on their own. Even our SPED teacher that has been doing this for 30 years has never seen anything like it.
@jaxPYL @amandacsb2 @IAm_THEPaulina
It's tough at times. Some of these kids learned that aggression was rewarded with appeasement. There was so much turnover among paras and so few were willing to stand firm, that giving in became the norm.
@amandacsb2 @IAm_THEPaulina
The plows are part of the problem. They only clear a single lane in residential areas and pile snow in front of driveways and curbs.
@IAm_THEPaulina @amandacsb2
It is better to shovel snow in the afternoons. Hopefully, the sun helps and then there's hot cocoa afterwards.
@Dan_Blue_OC2CO @amandacsb2 Problem when you gotta go to work early, isn’t it?
@IAm_THEPaulina @amandacsb2
Not for me. I have all-wheel-drive. I just need to clear it off my car. If there is too much, we all get a snow day.🥳
@Dan_Blue_OC2CO @amandacsb2 my ex had one of those big broncos, it was fun to drive.
@IAm_THEPaulina @amandacsb2
I have a Subaru Outback. I wouldn't call it fun to drive but it does very well in snow.
