What is the Inuit word for PITA snow?

[morgaina]

Never being one to leave well enough alone, after numerous attempts with the Iszuzu, I shoveled for awhile and got the Subaru out of the spot it was in and down my road to the highway. All was well, if a terrible drive. But then coming back I had to turn it around a bit to back it into its parking space or I would have had to back it 1/8 mi. through deep snow to get to the highway tomorrow.
So I got stuck, sideways in the road of course.

I have spent most of this afternoon shoveling snow to no avail. I finally phoned AAA who after a tantalizing promise said they couldn't help me get it out because my road hasn't been plowed.
I phoned dancing_guru"s friends to see if they want to help me push it. They generously, generously offered to come when they can although they are going to have to walk a ways or their car will be also SOL in the snow.
The Iszuzu could have made it, but the battery is not working AGAIN. I've had it in 2 different mechanic shops to take care of the problem about 4-5 times now.

No one has to hint to me to move now, I am fully in favor of it.

SINCE THAT TIME
*gasp wheeze*
another concerted ammount of time of shoveling with the help of dancing_guru's friends and it's out of the PITA snow. Plenty of exercise that.
I think my calorie intake deserves to include Baileys in hot chocolate this pm.

I have lots of SPED experience, but not a SPED certificate.
I also really like working with extremely "at risk" students if the administration is good & that's a certainly a growing area.

You should definitely talk to her - she's up on all the teaching requirements for the state and whatnot. I don't know if she's got a Master's or not, but I want to say that it's not *required* for teaching in Washington - you just need a certificate. But I could be making that up.

I know that Seattle Pacific University offers regular qualifications courses over the summer. Seattle University might, too. And Tuireann just did a bunch of stuff at City University, although I *do* think that was an MiT.

At any rate, you know we'll all fall all over ourselves to help make this possible for you. :)

I appreciate the support. My DIL is getting her MAT online, it's still a buncha work she says.
I don't see any movement happening rapidly at any rate, it will definately take a while.
