* You wouldn't believe that I had to actually DUST OFF my laptop before opening it to start writing this post. GASP! (My laptop has never seen such little love.....EVER).
* My exams are marked, my report cards are done, and my classroom is (for the most part) packed up!!! Tomorrow we have an appointment at the new school to see our classrooms, meet some colleagues, and get some transition materials. We can't wait!
* After delaying the shipping appointment an embarrassing number of times, our shipment to Canada was FINALLY picked up yesterday afternoon. We have a shipping allowance from our current school and we thought, what the heck, we might as well use it! Now that we have a house back home (eeeee!!!!!!), we have somewhere to keep all of the random things that accumulated in the past four years.
* We get our new apartment next Sunday. The movers are expected to arrive at 9 a.m. for what is guaranteed to be a fun-filled Father's Day. Haaaa!!!!!!!! (So, so, SO much packing has to be done before this day. Wish us luck. And many kind people who want to help us).
* Steve Jobs was a real A$$. We watched a movie about him the other day and I couldn't believe how much money I've spent on a company led by the world's most insensitive leader. To be honest, I didn't watch the entire movie (after about 45 minutes, I fell asleep). But I'm assuming Mr. Jobs didn't miraculously turn into some grand-O humanitarian who appreciates that everyone is a person. Too bad he produced such quality products. There must have been a kinder way to go about it....
* Mistresses is BACK!!!!!! Another trashy summer tv show to add to the list! YES!
* Sometimes you hear things that make you want to lock your doors and spend EVERY. SINGLE. MOMENT snuggled up with the people you love. It happened this week and one might have thought a cuddle competition was in full swing! I am so grateful for Phil and Nory. And I am so grateful that we get to bring Nory home to visit with all of you again. She's a whole new person (one year later!) and I can't wait for you to get to know her :)
* It's HOT here. When I say it, I think it has a little extra credibility - seeing that I NEVER, EVER say ANYTHING is "too hot". So, I repeat, IT IS HOT HERE. The car said 52 degrees on the drive home....during which time we couldn't really touch anything or breath or do anything but focus on staying conscious. It was awesome. And I'm lying.
* Nory has three adorable new dresses in her wardrobe! Thank you to the Hussain family for the lovely surprise gift this weekend! I can't wait for Nory to wear each one :)
* A new character is debuting on Doc McStuffins next week. Who do you think is most excited about it? If you guessed Nory, you're wrong! Haha.
* 12 days until we fly home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
