This has been one of the toughest weeks of my life, and this morning I truly did not know how I was going to make it, but by the Grace of God.
In 1st block, one of my freshman started digging in her bookbag, then handed me a small sticker:"Here Ms. F- I brought you a sticker!" π₯Ήπ

This mini-forest, like many across the globe, follows the Miyawaki Method of densely planting specific native species to jump-start forest development.
"As whale populations continue to struggle, a decline in whale falls is reported to haveΒ reduced the biodiversityΒ of deep sea ecosystems β and has likely contributed to the extinction of species before we ever knew of their existence." @kathla.bsky.social

This is a great little sci-fi, fantasy, horror con in the fall in Georgia.
Yes, I am biased. I am Co-director for the WRITE track.
But, it's also a great place to start. Never been a guest at a Con before? Multiverse is VERY supportive & loves bringing in new voices.
DM me if you have questions!
Oh good, I definitely wanted to wake up with a low blood sugar this morning.
Two scientists look at a monitor attached to a large apparatus consisting of pipes, tanks, vessels and hoses. The first scientist says "I don't get it. The reaction is running perfectly, but we can't account for 7% of the heat." The other says "Have you Asked the Professor?" The first replies "We're not supposed To disturb him when He's in his office." On the other side of the apparatus, one of the pipes goes through a wall into another room where it warms the water for a hot tub in which the professor relaxes.

A photo of a Pallas cat peering up at the viewer. It has a grayish coat of fluffy fur, long whiskers, and bright greenish eyes.
Caturday Mood? Pallas' cat. Found in parts of Asia, it lives a primarily solitary life & only seeks out company during mating season. A female Pallasβ cat produces a litter of one to six kittens, and by just 5 months old, they disperse to set out on their own!

The Atlantic Ocean, from the shoreline. Tide is going out while the waves roll in.
Drove to the ocean yesterday for a few hours (I'm only 2 hrs inland).
Petted 5 dogs, all good puppers.
Slightly toasted by the sun, even through sunscreen.
Caught in the crush of 4-6pm traffic on the way back.
10000/10 would recommend.

A photo of a hippo standing on dry grassy terrain, staring at the viewer. The animal is enormous, with a bulky round body and short legs. It has massive lower tusks which protrude out from its slightly open mouth.
Hip hip hooray, itβs World Hippo Day! Hippos are one of the largest living land animals. Full-grown adults can reach weights of up to 7,055 lbs (3,200 kg)! These large herbivores live in Africa & have one of the strongest bites in the animal kingdom!

I would really appreciate it if companies would actually deduct things automatically as they said they would.
π§ When you find the museum quite π§πππππ©ing.
I frequently tell my students that professionalism has nothing to do with appearance except personal hygiene, and everything to do with behavior.
I wish I could also give this PSA to many adults.

Best chalk ever. #edusky #HagoromoChalk #teacher #hsEnglish
Ok, so I'm a relatively tall female at 5'8", but I usually wear shoes with cushion and therefore extra height.
One of my freshmen today: "Ms. F, you don't have your Booster 3000s on today!"
He was talking about my platform Crocs. π€¦π»ββοΈπ€£π

A photo of a purple frog on a rock in shallow water. The animal is inflated like a balloon, and purple in color. It has a drooping proboscis and tiny eyes.
The purple frog, also known as the pig-nosed frog, might be spotted along Indiaβs Western Ghats mountains. It uses its sensitive snout to sniff out snacks, like termites, and then scoops them out with its fluted tongue!
