My good mood starter is first coffee. Then followed by my daily snuggle with my pup on the couch. First I give him scratches. Then he paws at me to go under the blanket I'm using. It's his way of making me try to stay home all day. He's 60lbs so he takes up most of my part of the couch but it's fine. It brings me so much happiness each morning.

Reply to Just moved down here and wondering if anyone knows any good Family Practices? We are out in Southside. Seems most places are not accepting new patients here, so somewhere in the city or traveling to Short Pump area is not off the table. Thanks! by Majoravonzelda

Welcome!!

https://hcavirginiaphysicians.com/physicians/ After some time on hold today, I was able to get an appt with a doctor at HCA VA Physicians in a few weeks. This was due to a cancellation. You might have some luck! The office staff was very nice and helpful on the phone.

I taught Art. Made 46,500. I averaged about 55-60 hours per week.

Some numbers that made me pause (and find another career path):

-I had to submit 15 grades per student per 9 weeks.

-125 students = 1875 grades in the gradebook per 9 weeks

-If I spent 1 min on each assignment for each student (reviewing, grading, entering in gradebook)= 31.25 hours of grading each 9 weeks. This usually happened outside of school hours and could not be accomplished during my prep time alone.

Now I make $10,000+ more and work 40 hours a week. My soul is so much happier.

*Edit I now have more time to work on my own art which brings me so much happiness and extra cash!
