As I said last post, I started working again this past week. What I didn’t mention is my welcome back gift. In the past, I have received books at one of the district’s workshops. Well, this year I didn’t attend their workshop due to not planning on going back to subbing. I found out later
I was just curious at a picture I saw on the web tonight. My question is why would anybody take a picture of the shoes that the candidates are wearing? I don’t think I can recall any other shoe pictures. I may be wrong, but I remember a lot of Pant Suits, Power Ties, body
