Thinking about submitting a proposal for BCCE next summer (submissions open Aug 1). Something related to chemistry for all? (I teach to untracked 9th grade) Modeling related? Biochem? What's everyone else thinking? #iteachchemistry #chemed

@theoreticalfun.bsky.social so glad to hear from you at @chemed2025co.bsky.social today. I'm teaching an environmental Microbiology class in HS this year, so this was particularly "just in time" as I think about what to incorporate in my class this year. Thank you!

I did a Europe tour in college, so one of those, but it was 2000 so I don't remember specifically which was longest. Lol

When did you have a bad experience in KC? Since the new terminal opened? (Curious, as my experience with the new terminal was great - was I just lucky? Lol)

Today is the 3rd anniversary of my husband's passing. It's complicated. There were good times, but neither of us were emotionally healthy for much of our marriage. I have done a lot of work through therapy. But days like this are still hard to navigate.

What the actual fuck? I'm so sorry that happened.

I've had one for almost a year now. I love it, but admittedly I'm a data nerd. 😆 What do you want to know?

❤️. How you enjoyed some quality family time and are able to get some rest!

We had family conferences yesterday and today. Tomorrow is a much needed spa day with the boyfriend.

Needed a good binge watch. Decided to try out Nobody Wants This. While it was only 10 30-min episodes (so not a long binge), it definitely hit the spot. So glad season 2 is happening...

Kara @karalu.bsky.social · 26/11/2024
Oh no! I hope you feel better very soon!

So annoying! I hope you find it!

I feel this deep in my soul. I need a week to sleep, rest, and renew.

This was how I was feeling this time last week (flew to Anaheim early Thursday for ##NABT2024). Wishing you rest for today and energy to get it all done tomorrow. ❤️

It's been awhile since I've checked in over here. Should I be checking in more frequently now? 😂

One of my first 9th-grade students just posted a photo of her oldest child's first day of middle school. Monday would be Joey's 18th birthday. I think I might be old.

This morning I got 20k in. 5k more than last week, and still kept my same pace. Definitely going to meet my time goal. Will you help me meet my fundraising goal? Let's kick cancer to the curb together. mobileacs.org/3qzf9g

Support my fundraising for 2023 Bank of America Chicago Marathon
I’m supporting the American Cancer Society to honor those touched by cancer by raising funds for groundbreaking research. Support me.

It was already too humid/hot for my planned workout this morning. I still ran intervals, but not at the pace originally scheduled. I'll still be better because of it. #everyrunhasapurpose #chicagomarathontraining
