Good morning all - It sure is cool today! It reached freezing last night. We were hoping to work on the pond today but it's awfully cold for that kind of work. I don't suppose its going to get any better though. We'll have to see. Jim says he doesn't feel great today anyway and is planning to go down for a couple of hours nap.
Tara called to tell me that Kyle has been suspended again today! Apparently the teacher told the kids to get out their French papers and he couldn't find his. She said it had to be in his desk and he said he already looked and it wasn't there. She stomped over to his desk and emptied it out and sure enough, the paper was not there. Kyle said I told you and she sent him to the office for being smart-mouthed. Someone in the office suspended him on the spot and Tara got a call to come and get him.
This teacher of his has no tolerance for him at all and seems to actively dislike him. The slightest thing sets her off. Kyle said why do I have to go to the office? She said because you're rude and disrespectful. The office must be getting tired of the situation because they didn't even talk to anyone about it - just suspended him. Kyle is really upset because he says he didn't even do anything this time. Tara is at the end of her rope and doesn't know what to do now. What point is there in trying to talk to anyone at the school to get Kyle back in, when this teacher is just going to keep booting him out?
I told her to forget it and find him a different school somewhere in the area. I don't know if that will even do any good because he is 12 years old and his hormones are probably raging. Perhaps a male teacher would be more tolerant? I don't know. Kyle will most likely fight against a new school because all of his friends are in this one. They seem to be the most important thing to him right now.
Any other ideas out there? Take care all and keep safe.

Marsha - Yes the guys got the 2 different feeders set up and so far, the squirrels haven't figured them out yet. I wonder how long it will take them? (lol)
