Hey there. I'm in the Knoxville, TN area and it has been raining all day. Which is good I guess since we've been in such a drought. But now they are saying it is going to get colder tonight and we'll maybe get ice. Now...down here there is rarely snow or ice...so everyone is FREAKING out. My DH, DS, and I are from Indiana and so this isn't anything to us...LOL Ah well....maybe they'll call everything off tomorrow and I can sleep in. *dreaming*

Oh...and I just pulled my son's second lost tooth.....talk about trauma. Usually my DH does the weird stuff like that, but his hand is too big to get in my son's mouth. LOL

I'm so glad to be part of this forum now. I joined a couple of years ago, but never posted for some reason. I forgot I had joined! But I recently discovered the forum again and have actually been posting, yay! I have a love for message boards. I have been a member of an X-Files message board for, goodness, I can't even remember how long - about 6 years, I think. And it's like my home away from home...at home on the internet, lol. So I'm glad to have another message board to go to!

ok then I'll introduce myself! My name is Lisa and I think I'm one of the few Iowa Coach lovers on this board! I work at an elementary school with autistic kids as well as gen ed kids and I love my job!

That's awesome! I'm an education major planning on teaching kindergarten. I am in general ed but find special ed fascinating and they make sure to keep us informed in areas that benefit students who may have special needs because of inclusion and it is very likely we will have children with special needs in our general ed classroom. I also work at my university's daycare center and in one of the older classrooms, there is a little boy with Asperger's...he's awesome!

ETA: Oh, yeah, my name is Aja. I am named after an album by the jazz group Steely Dan. There is also a song called "Aja."

That is very cool! I wish more education majors took interest in special ed! I work one on one with a boy in the primary autism room during the day, and am the assistant director in the before/after school program where I hang out with the gen ed kids.

I've never heard of your name before! Do you pronounce it AH-ja?

I'm interested in anything that will benefit my future students. I'm also getting ESL certified as my minor. I will be a general ed teacher but I want to have all the resources to be able to reach out to all children no matter who they are or where they come from or what they have.

As for Aja - it's actually said like the continent, lol. I found the song on YouTube. They say it in the song - you can skip ahead to 0:54 to hear it.

Why quit?? Coffee is actually good for you in many ways...they have even done some research and found it can help you ward off Alzheimer's! Coffee gets a bad rap. Just don't drink too many cups a day..a couple...and enjoy!!
It's one of the great pleasures in life: that first cup of hot coffee in the morning!

[TygerKitty]

OMG yay! Hopefully extra chatter will be contained here; it's so nice to be able to talk to the coachies!

Hi coachies!!!! Someone kick me if I try to buy something, okay!? lol

Thanks for the coffee info! I drink at least three cups of coffee a day. Alzheimer's runs in my family–my mom is now in a nursing home with it and my grandma had it too.
