Teachers, I'm done with draft 1 of I Survived 22 & want to share chapters 1-2 with students. I'll choose two classes/schools for 30-minute zooms. Eager to share, get feedback, and discuss writing with your young critics! Best for grades 3-8. RT to enter. I will notify by 2/14.

@kidlitjenny I just read Above the Rim with kindergartners and it was a blast!

@GovPhilScott ...starts process to move family out of Vermont.

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

For what it's worth I'd take consistency over normalcy right now.

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

@JaneLindholm Omg.

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

When this many kids can't come to school, sure feels like a state of emergency, no?

@DeeleyVt @EDUCarboNEK Reporting is a-ok, but stay away from commenting and engaging, right.

@ChristieNold I just saw the app headspace now has a show on Netflix. I don't know much about it, just that it popped up on my For You page. 🥱

@mrbgilson Forgot to say, I was 8 months pregnant.

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

@mrbgilson I am so thankful I got to teach remotely in between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. I felt extreme guilt until I thought...would the people judging me trade places with me? Noooope.

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

Paid family leave, please.

The way you spend your time changes significantly when you have a baby (especially if you're a woman who decides to breastfeed). I think this is best explained visually. Here's what my time looks like before and after:

Why on earth would you need to bring a firearm, but not a mask, to a Covid testing site?

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

It's a weird feeling. And now when I picture myself finally on a date I know this will be all I think about, at least for a little while.Anyway, it's all connected and you can be happy and excited but sometimes there isn't a "feel better" button.Restaurants aren't even that great

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

waiting for hours for my husband to be "cleared" to come support me. In between moments when I was trying to avoid conflict, stay calm and not be a burden I do remember thinking there were people eating unmasked, with their friends and family in restaurants at the exact same time

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

@DrMarinaHarris Pregnancy is such a complicated and personal thing! I hate that some people see my fertility as small talk. It's odd to me.

[Bridget Carbonetti @kingdmlibrarian]

Thought we wanted to attract young people to our state.

@gglibrarian @UPS @USPS We've had to use this store multiple times and it's been an issue. There are no other options.
