Exams Are Done!

Well, not quite but tomorrow is the grade twelve physics exam and that is the last one I have to worry about. I have one more lesson and then I am on summer holidays!

Sorry about the long absence but this time of year it seems my life is consumed by students and exams. I rather enjoy this time of year but something tells me if you were to talk to my students they might disagree. Just a hunch.

Thursday I am off to study art in Montreal but I am hoping to find a computer somewhere that I can email and post from. Rumour has it that McGill will let out of towners on their computers. Hey, Evelyne do you know if this is true or not? Well, I'll figure something out.

Hey Kelly this little critter is for you!


My iris phase is over and done with, at least until next year's crop, but now I am into roses. You can blame my rain drenched flower fetish on a link that Deb gave in a previous post of an amazing photographer from Montanta.








Sure hope everyone is well and enjoying the start of the summer. Take care and I will try and get around to you all in the next day and a half to catch up on what everyone has been up to.
Cheers!

Deb said...

Yea, you're back!!! We've missed you around this place. Take care on your way to Montreal and try hard to keep in touch. Be safe my friend. ;)

hmmm....cats or squirrels which to choose from

Toccata said...

Deb, I will definitely try to keep in touch. In this day and age there has to be some computer somewhere I can use!

Kelly, don't worry cat pictures later today!

I miss you already! Oh wait, I still have leftover missing you from the exam crunch.

You are going to have such a wonderful summer. I sure hope you can get onto the computers to keep in touch. Be sure to take tonnes of pictures!

Good to see you back. That squirrel reminds me of a video I saw where one was attacking a guy in his yard. Or maybe it was a commercial. Anyway, I look at them differently now. Ha.

Nice flowers.

Evelyne said...

You're back!

I don't know about the McGill access. But the libraries are open and there are computers there and you can login using the guest account, but I don't know if you have access to internet when using the guest account. But maybe that there is a deal between the place where you'll study art and McGill. Otherwise, I think that there are other libraries in Montreal where you have access to internet. I'll e-mail you about that.

Have a boffo time in Montreal, and take lots of pictures :) Hey, by the time you're back perhaps 668 will be done her recap on her Toronto trip, then you can start one for Montreal :)

Toccata said...

Barbara, now that I'm back I don't want to leave blogland again so soon. But, I have a couple of good lines on computers to access!

Busterp, just thinking about that video makes me smile.

Evelyne, just read your email. I will email you later tonight. Thanks for the info!

Allison, I'm thinking about stealing 668's idea of a stand in! That Lucifer was too funny.

Boo, squirrels love to destroy gardens Grr! Are you taking grade twelve physics now? If so I wish you the best of luck with it.

668 aka neighbour of the beast said...

Toccata what is this thing with black squirrels on the net? I'd never seen one before until I saw a youtube of a black one...it's on my random blog now... hope all's well with you the WEEKEND IS UPON US (well practically)... I'm exhausted... been trying to tell my lifestory in daily posts :: not easy... hope your cats properly better now

take it e.z.

Toccata said...

668, well the good news I have found a computer I can use. The bad news is the time limit. That`s probably a good thing but it sure makes getting around the blogosphere nearly impossible.

Gledwood, my cat is back in fine form again. He`s no doubt being spoiled rotten as I write by his two summer fulltime babysitters. I will try and catch up with your posts. Between exams and now being away for the summer I`m turning into a terrible blogging buddy. Hang in there I`ll be back to blogging `fulltime`when I return in August.
