The New Kid graphic novels by @JerryCraft are an essential series for any Y5/6 classroom, tackling themes of friendship, race, and identity, and are fast-paced, relatable, and highly engaging. They're incredibly popular in class, and are rarely on the bookshelves.

Trying to refi w/ @newrezwholesale for over a month. If I have NEVER missed a payment on 2 mortgages, doesn’t it make sense that I will be able to afford to pay LESS money w/ a lower rate? They contacted me but have made it nearly impossible to complete. I even tried to cancel!

In all the airports I’ve ever been in, I’ve never seen a check-in counter with no one behind the desk unless it was really early in the morning. Was just told that no one would be here until 6:30 PM. Luckily my flight isn’t until 8:20 PM.😆 ⁦@jetblue

Went to @Walmart to get canvas prints by 10am the next day. Next morning got a text saying there is a delay & they will let me know ETA. Went there tonight at 7pm & was told “our machine has been broken for 2 weeks?” Then why are you still taking orders? These were Xmas gifts? 🤪
