Rest of May thoughts:- We had a mini heatwave (2-3 days of 30+ weather) and then right back to a normal spring of cool sunny days sprinkled in between lots of cold rainy ones. Kinda wish the warmth had stayed, but normal weather patterns are good!
- Walking to Nova Youth one of those hot days, Aiden and I saw this little family of ducklings right beside the road. Hopefully the duck pair on our pond at home have managed to hatch and protect their young from the resident mink as well.
- We've appropriated a square of dock pulled up on the shore near us for our picnic spot. No one from the near by restaurant or boat club is bothering us about doing so, so we're happy to have such a lovely spot: we even get to watch the sailing club sometimes.
- Mom had her birthday lunch there, but then we also had a mini mini party on Friday: a few friends over to eat mini cakes, pies, and rolls and play mini Quirkle.
- Aiden has finished off one more course of grade 12 and has just two more to close out the year.
- How quickly it's June already!
- Jasmin took her final exams this last weekend and now only has a few assignments to finish! Then, after all our travels, she can take the certification exam to be a professional trainer.
- OneCon weekend for Aiden: youth conference in Moncton. He went last year, but this year his sisters aren't going so he's "flying solo."
- We're planning for two more birthdays this month
- We're finally settled enough to focus on getting into smooth routines of healthy habits, filling up for our later travels in July: daily walks discovering local neighbourhoods after lunch, more regular mealtimes and bedtimes, etc. Here's hoping for 3 weks of quiet routine normalacy (with birthdays!) before we leave on our travels!
