-My neighbors that haven't finished their backyard yet. It's been over two years... out some seed down already.
-Kids that don't work and loaf off their parents.
-Door to door sales people... I live in a private, gated community where this is not allowed but those bastards try and do it anyway.
-Marketing calls.... anytime all the time... HATE THEM!!!!
-Junk Mail (yes, I have registered with the post office to stop it but we still get tons)
-Mail that comes to my address for family members that live 400+ miles away and have never lived with me.... EVER!!!!!
-Freaking old lady down the street that keeps stealing my cat because "she was wondering" Holly Crap..... that's what cats do... get your own lady!
-Pictures of food at fast food places. The food never.... ever looks like the pictures. Someone should sue the fast food companies for falsification of truth in advertising.
-The guy that lives in my town with his truck lifted so high it take a ladder for him to get in it. *idiot* go fill er up!
-Noisy neighbors *nuff said*
-People that think they are better than everyone else. News flash these are usually the biggest a$.
-Swim coaches that cannot seem to teach the strokes correctly. Makes me want to freaking dog slap them.
-Overuse of smilies online or on paper. 
.............more to come later but please add yours now. |

I agree totally!!! Although, as a mother of a child in the gifted program....things go sooooo smoothly with all of the teachers. I must admit some disappointment in some of the teachers for my more 'challenged child'. I realized a 'while back' that there will always be people that are good at their position and see the rewards of what they do. Unfortunately there seems to always be a few that will not take the time to learn the individual child, and help them meet the challenge. Its disappointing when you go for a conference and hope to find a teacher that is helpful and encouraging.
Here is the way our kindergarten conf went.....
Teacher: Your 'child' does not top their capital J.
Me: Ok. (I look to child and say....top your J) Problem solved. Yet child still has trouble grasping """""reading"""""". Teacher seemed to be of no help with this.
Husb/Father: Blank look of confusion as to wtf is this teacher talking about. lololol
Here is the way 3 rd grade conf went.....,
Teacher: Your Child does not tie up their Timberland boots.
Me: Ok. They will not wear those shoes to school anymore.
Husb/Father: At home with 'child'....after at least 5 conf with teachers....outside testing of child (initiated by us) Husband knew to just let me handle it. lolol
It is amazing when you can see the system from both sides, a challenged child and a gifted child. Its also amazing to see that some teachers actually realize the impact they are making on EVERY child. Thankfully, I now know which teachers are best for my 'little challenge'......and believe me, they get what they need.
(I intentionally tried not to focus on which of my children was which, due to the fact that i now know......what I type is actually read by them lol. I have a wonderful son and wonderful daughter, I am truly blessed by God to have them.)
