Hey Kelly:
Thanks to you! You sound like you're feeling better. Have you been writing? I saw your posts about civility and Dr Bob's interventions, and see you've posted again to PB Admin regarding this...
It is difficult, and when in hypomanic mode, I too could get awfully worked up over these things on the board. And then I just said to myself: hey, aren't there enough stressors in daily life, that I have to go to PB & PSB to get some more??? Argghhh...
BTW, I promised many moons ago to send you some info on teaching in NY state. Here is the url:
http://www.highered.nysed.gov/tcert/
Also check with your local BOCES (Board of Cooperative Educational Services), who generally have a resource person to help people with credentials, and actually send them to the state for you...
I have found the system Byzantine, to say the least, but the web site looks like it's been re-vamped, maybe there is more/better info. My problem is that I have a master's degree, but lack any education credits, so I have to take 18 credit hrs. of ed courses, then take the exams... How I pay for the classes is a big question... the state needs teachers, and it does nothing to support people like me in career change mode. So I get frustrated...
Ayway, I asked Dr Bob on the Admin site what Sal's new name was, but he might not answer (what is it??) Would love to see him in action again...
Also: please see my Provigil question on regular PB, an add-on to your exchange with IsoM...
later,
Wendy
> that was a great post. good luck with everything and please do look for support during this hectic time. :)

> i like your straightforward approach re: just posting, making mistakes sometimes and being called for it, then continuing to post and try to make it better. i think perhaps some, including myself, need to give dr. bob more room and not question how he is handling every "uncivil" remark.
