Venting...like an Alaskan Volcano

"Never plan ahead more than, oh, 6 months."
"Okay, sounds like a plan."

"Training will cost us, oh, roughly $13,000 for that one teacher."

"It'll be worth it. She'll be a powerhouse for us, moving mountains and setting interventions into play that will rock the frickin' educational world. The people she will have to deal with may be difficult, but she'll manage to find a way to get things rolling..."

Fast forward approximately 2 years:

"You seem unhappy with your job, so we want to move you somewhere you'll be happy."

"I'm not unhappy. What makes you think that?"

"Well, you said things aren't going well in several areas at your school."

"I'm not unhappy. I am looking for support."

"Yes, that's why we're moving you..."


Fuck!

Springing Spring Springs to Life!

The Galaxy Magnolia goes insane! The False Spirea is crazy bloomin'!
The front bed is exploding with joy!
The camillia is bursting out of its Winter darkness.
