It's May! · May 4, 09:20 PMI’ve been quite bad at updating these past few months — I guess because I’ve been so diligent about posting my daily photo. Anyway, the last couple weeks have been fairly relaxing. It was Colin’s birthday on April 18, and we had a little party for him that weekend. Michelle came out, and we had Lara and Aaron, Kirstyn and Chris, and Ryan and Art over for dinner and games. Good times. The following weekend I went to Courtenay to visit my sister and to hang out with my parents. They flew in on the Saturday and stayed until the Wednesday. It was a pretty terrible weekend though, unfortunately, due mostly to the insane upstairs tenant at the duplex. The weather also sucked, and the suite Michelle’s in was still not really finished. Anyway, at least we got a brief visit and had a nice dinner together on the Saturday night. Last week I discovered that I’ll be getting very few hours of work this semester (four per week), so I had a bit of a panic attack. I came up with the idea of teaching a course on photography for scrapbookers at my favourite scrapbooking store, Clipper Street Scrapbooking Company. I went in to pitch the idea and they LOVED it. Too bad the May/June schedule of classes is already set. I won’t get to start teaching until July, but I’m really looking forward to it! A great way to make some extra money and have some fun too. This weekend was really fun. My sister came out again and we went to Golden Ears Provincial Park for a tent trailer weekend. Julie and Jess joined us on Friday night with their tent trailer and we had a wonderful weekend in the wilderness. It’s a beautiful place to spend a few days, and today was so sunny and warm that it made spending the afternoon at the beach a real treat. It finally feels like summer might actually show its face around here. And tomorrow is Monday, and the start of the semester at SFU. Too bad I’ll only be working two days a week. It’s going to be a tight few months. I hope the sun shines a lot to make up for it! This coming weekend we’ll be driving to Salmon Arm for Matt and Lee’s wedding, which should be a very nice time. The next weekend we may head down to Seattle to spend a couple days with Julie and Jess and to go see Blue Rodeo with them — exciting prospect since it’s been literally years since I saw a concert! And the next weekend we may take the tent trailer down to Deception Pass again for another wonderful weekend of outdoor adventure. Anyway, I’m tired after my big weekend, so I’m off to the bath and bed. I’ve posted an album from this weekend, so enjoy! |
