What do your schools do for attendance incentives? Personal, class, school? Thanks in advance for ideas.

I thought a) we weren't talking about grit anymore and b) St. Patrick's Day, I know it's been coopted but it IS a Saint's day...

I don't understand how if we go back to school the week BEFORE Labor Day our last day of school is still June 13. It doesn't seem right.

Question about being in the hospital last week. There has been no follow up. Is that normal? My true follow up appointment is 2/28. But...nothing? And a million tests in my chart...nothing? Maybe this is just medicine these days? #hospital #MultipleSclerosis

What questions should I ask my doctor at the first follow up appointment? @mssociety #MultipleSclerosis

I am heading towards a medical diagnosis that will involve appointments etc for the rest of my life. I need all the suggestions of ways you take notes at the doctor etc AND also, do you use a favorite notebook? #MultipleSclerosis

How early before a meeting do you think you should be notified? Particularly for a group that is supposed to meet every month...

If T doesn't get on the ballot in some states, can he be a write in? if he is written in does it count? Thanks

Two things: 1) hand warmers are a game changer for bus duty. 2) Apparently if you wish kindergarteners Happy New Year when they get off the bus they respond! (they don't always to good morning) and have huge smiles!

Any high school teachers, parents, librarians have book ideas for two young women? Senior and junior (maybe sophmore)? Thanks!

Talk to me about handwarmers. I want them for bus duty- yep, am and pm every day. Do I want rechargable ones? I don't have to do anything with my hands save for use the walkie talkie. Or do I want the old school disposable ones? Thanks

Replying to @chevrolet
@chevrolet My friend recently had her car at the shop (a local chevy dealer) for 1 month. Then she got a new engine, a 12K repair. She drove it the next day and it was shaking and the check engine light went on. Scary, she was on the highway. Now it's back at the dealer 1/2

What would be a good gift for my SIL who is the principal of a K-5 school? I don't know her well but gift cards are so impersonal and she does a great job buying for me...

This is for sure a first world problem but can anyone share what room type they've liked best when going on an island vacation? Do I want a walkout pool? An ocean front walk out? Something else? @SandalsResorts

Are there Springsteen songs that bring you to tears immediately? Or is it just me. “Jack of all trades” did it to me on the way home today. #springsteen
