Well, things are going along. Summer is here and I'm working, but not too much. 12 shifts which is just 1 shift short of normal. Heading to Winnipeg soon for Sarah's wedding. Will try to get to the lake one weekend this summer to visit with friends.
Scott, my youngest, landed a job in England! He's leaving in August to Bicester, 1.5 hours northwest of London. He and 2 friends will work and live in Oxford. Flat will run around 500 pounds ($1100/month) and Scott will commute 30 minutes by train to Bicester. He'll work 1 year and then Devin and he will backpack around Europe for 3 months.
Jason and Shelley are moving to Ottawa. They are both in their final year. Shelley will intern at a clinic/hospital while Jason will finish his dissertation. He landed yet another scholarship so that he won't have to work while he finishes it. After Ottawa, who knows. Jason will have to find a teaching position in some university, while Shelley can put up a 'shingle' anywhere. Both deserve a good clap on the back for all their hard work.
Debbie will spend the summer at the lake. Work a little, tan a lot. She is also planning a bus jaunt to Winnipeg sometime soon with a friend.
All is right in the world.

Not much....
Not much has been going on since my last entry. I did work my very first, second, third and LAST night shifts for the commissionaires. NEVER again. I was physically sick after the first day, so I will not be doing them again. I even gave away 2 of my night shift at month's end.
I took pictures at a friend's wedding on the 17th of May. I was disappointed at some of the results, but I'm going to try to fix that for next time. I will definitely have extra batteries for my flash, as by night's end I was having difficulties with it charging up the flash. My outside shots were much better, so I'm hoping to do more of those in the future.
My friend and I went to Minneapolis for 3 days and watch 3 Blue Jays games. Wow, couldn't have planned it better. The weather going there was crappy. Warm up for our sight seeing day. Used my new 75 x 300 mm lens at some of the players out on the field. Work great! Will have to plan a trip to Seattle next!!
