No Sunday!
It's been a very long time since I wrote anything in my journal. We've been very busy at school and Facebook is way to easy, so it makes entering stuff in this format seem very difficult. Which it isn't really, it just seems that way.
I'm at home working...and posting to Live Journal! :) At least it isn't Sunday again, which is when I usually have time to write.
Tonight, eveyone is coming over for the wedding rehearsal. Meg took some photos of Trav and me in the garden on Saturday to practice and they are pretty funny. She posted them on Facebook, so you should check them out. What a hoot! I only hope it's as sunny on Saturday as it is today! Sue keeps dooming and glooming and saying it's supposed to rain, but hey -- who knows? Certainly not the weather people!
Em had two exams today (and lots of essays!) so she'll probably be bagged tonight. She had one yesterday, too. Friday is her one and only provincial of the semester and it's in Social Studies. She did very well on awards night! She got the top award for Literature 12, which really mattered to her; English 11, which was good but she kind of expected it; Service , which she didn't care at all about; and Scholastic, for having a 5.0 GPA all year. She was pleased with that one, because that was her goal for the year. So well done, Em! Of course, I enjoy the event even more than she does. So many of my Selkirk kids are on the podium, time after time, and it makes me feel very good to be part of such a wonderful school!! Anyway, at least someone's happy!!
I can't wait for the end of school. It's been a hard year. I'm looking forward to swapping war stories with Muff over the summer! I am looking forward to lounging around, eating cherry bon bons and relaxing!! No travel this summer. Em is working (I think at Victorian Epicure) so we won't be going too far from home.
Sue is home sick with the flu today, poor thing. She looks quite ill. Very achy, etc. I hope she's better for Saturday!!
Well, I had better head out to the bank and to get Emily from school. Lots of love and I'll try to get back here sooner next time!
