Sweet peas and other veggies in a raised bed
Fall harvests are unique and special. Our shiitake logs flushed for a 3rd time right before Thanksgiving. I squealed! #gardening

Thank you to the Charlotte Observer for sharing my thoughts on how the ongoing ICE/Border Patrol raids are impacting our students #nced

Thought of you the other day when a student argued why I should allow them to use AI for their unit planning (suggesting I was not with the times) and I sent them your Edutopia article along with the MIT study time.com/7295195/ai-c...
Colorful farmer’s market produce
Doing what we can to support the local economy and farmers and cut plastic waste. How beautiful are these colors?
Rest in peace, Alice.
Long Covid Is Real — And It’s Changing an Entire Generation
Hundreds of thousands of kids in America are struggling with an illness that many doctors and schools refuse to recognize.e

A friend has LC in NC as well. Have you been to the UNC Department of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R)?
Same - got covid in fall 2021 and had phantom cigarette smell 24/7 for about 6 months. Got covid again this year and it’s back. 🫤
Good morning, friend. 🌞

Gifts of #nature. Wild turkey feather, wildflowers, and caterpillar reflect the beauty and cycle of life.
I have to take oral minoxidil for mine brought on by my first infection in 2021. Only thing that worked. It’s not like it was before but much fuller.

PSA: #Costco now has #Novavax in stock in Wilmington, NC. It's on their website and I called the pharmacy to confirm. #COVID
Stanford researchers found that AI-generated "workslop" is actually making people less productive, in part because workers have to correct errors or decode the useful information/intent buried in a flood of auto-generated garbage:
Absolutely gorgeous!
Mom had a stroke and contracted it in ICU and we all got it. I tested positive for just a week. Much easier than my case in 2021. Dad tested + for 8-9 days, negative, then post-Paxlovid rebound like your wife. I think he tested positive over a 2-week window. Hope everyone feels better soon!
We just went through this as well. I didn’t test positive until day 4 of symptoms (4 tests).
Which part? 😭
Beautiful Georgia skies
No words. I’m truly sorry. 😞
I’m truly sorry. It’s enraging.
I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.
I’m really sorry. I know that area well as we used to live in Richmond Hill. We had to drive 2.5 hours to get one in Raleigh. I imagine they won’t be available at all this coming year.
And after years of dangerous, anti-vax rhetoric, there is little demand for covid vaccines at all. Yesterday I got my daughter boosted before going back to school. In a CVS located in a large, urban shopping center, the pharmacist said they’re throwing out more doses than they give.
Sooo time consuming.
Thanks for sharing. We’ve been masking since 2020 & my husband contracted Covid via his eyes when someone blew their nose walking past him 🤢 as he was wearing an N95. I was quarantined in a small hospital room for 10 days with a Covid patient, even sleeping in a mask. Sometimes it’s just bad luck.
