On paper vs reality

So I am seeing a lot of people say that their hourly rate looks good, but their actual take home does not reflect that. I am in Texas, and I will be graduating soon. How much are y'all actually making vs how much you expected to make? I'm not changing courses, but I am looking to set my expectations. Obviously $35-40+ an hour sounds good, but that should equate to $72k+ a year with full-time hours. Any input is appreciated.

Advice From Texas School-Based SLPs

Hello! I am currently a CSD student, but I am also a parent to a child that receives speech therapy in a clinic. He is starting kindergarten this year at an out-of-district school. I received the approval today. Now I am wondering how to go about requesting an evaluation from the school to see if he will qualify for an IEP. I understand that there is a timeline once a request is received. I am hoping for advice on proper etiquette since we are in the summer now. Should I submit a request now to have ducks in a row before the school year begins? Should I wait? I drive a long way to the clinic for his therapy, and I will have to stop once he starts school. I worry about a lapse in therapy. Thank you for any input.

So I am being given a calf that is 3 months old. He was stepped on at birth. From what I know as of now, he has nursed the whole three months. He stands to nurse, but he spends most of his time laying down. Now his back legs are weak and just staying together mostly. I haven't seen this calf in person yet. The people that had him don't have the time to work with him. My plan, right now, is to get him in a sling and hang him so he can have more time up. Maybe that will help build his legs up. He has not had water or anything besides milk. Since he is 3 months, should I go ahead and introduce him to a calf starter grain and water in between giving him a bottle. Electrolytes? Any advice on nutrition or physical rehab is appreciated. TIA
