Good morning, everyone!!
I hope everyone enjoyed their Father's Day. My dad was at the cottage all day, so I was unable to speak to him. We usually only speak a couple times a month and he was here as early as last Monday. I am sure that he's all right. My younger side got the best of me at a party on Saturday and I was paying for it yesterday. I must realize that mixing beer and liquor is a very bad idea. At least I experienced it before I am in Prague and Amsterdam. I'd hate to feel as bad as I did yesterday when I'm not at home.
Overall, it was a great weekend. The weather was absolutely beautiful. Sunny and hot. It rained for a bit on Saturday, but nothing too major... Just enough for Kim and I to cancel our apartment hunt. If you ask me, the rain was a sign. Another apartment opened at the building Kim and I viewed on Wednesday. We were hesitant to take the other apartment because it was a corner unit and the second bedroom was missing a few feet of room. This would not have been fair for Mike, especially since we are going into the hunt with the mindset as if I will be in North Bay for 6 out of 8 months of the upcoming school year. Anyway, we received an email from the building supervisor on Friday night about the other unit. She really wants us to move there! Kim was hesitant at first, but she is now realizing that there is no place that we will be receiving such a deal for an apartment in the heart of downtown Ottawa. Kim phoned the apartment last night and they will be phoning us back sometime today with a time to view. All three of us are excited about the prospect of moving! Of course, I will move back in full-time when I have completed Teachers College in April.
Plenty of excitement going on here. This is my last full week of work until July 19th. In less than 10 days, I will be on a flight to Prague. My bosses seem very excited about my trip. It's great to work in a place where they are so interested in my vacation. Ten days until Prague but only five days until the half way mark? Wow! We are nearing the top of the climb toward Christmas. We can only how that the descend will be just as smooth!!
Happy Summer Solstice to all! I look forward to this day each and every year. I like summer. Well, I like all seasons, but I'm always fascinated when the sun is at its high and low points for the year. In only six months, we will be celebrating the shortest day of the year - of course, with Christmas in mind! For today, however, it will be nice outside on the evening of the longest day of the year.
Another work week has begun. Soon enough, we will be reaching that half way milestone and enjoying another weekend! Have a great Monday, everyone!!!
