And it’s over!

Nothing drastic, just the weekend.  And it was a good one – for the most part.  Unfortunately, Jean got laid off on Friday afternoon, so he must resume looking for work on Monday morning (please keep him in your prayers!).  But we took the news well, all things considered!  Finding steady, stable work in this town is not easy… at least now he just has to find something until his school starts – did we tell you that Jean’s seriously considering going back to school?  He wants to take the AME program (Aircraft Maintenance Engineering) beginning in September.  He’d be going to school full time for 17 months, then working in the field for two and a half years, after which he’ll be certified!  It’s something that he can use anywhere in the world, and he’ll graduate before I do!  LOL  I’m so super excited for him, it’s an amazing opportunity.

As for me, I’m back to school tomorrow morning.  Sometimes it’s a bit of a drag, I feel like I’m back in high school – only worrying about exams and papers and homework, but I keep telling myself that it’ll be worth it when it’s all over.  And if I get selected for that program in Quebec this summer, I’m going to be SO excited!!!  What a privilege to study French in Quebec!!!

This weekend was a relaxing one – yesterday we spent time with friends at CRASH (the small group that we meet with on Saturday afternoons) and then spent the evening with a couple that we met last summer.  We had a blast as usual, playing some game or other – last night it was “Who, What, Where”, have you ever played that game?  It’s so much fun – you have to describe the different things on the card, and the more things you describe, the more spaces you move.  We played it twice!  LOL

Today  we spent at Mom and Dad’s, we had dinner there and took some long-overdue family pictures.  They turned out pretty good actually – as soon as I get them from Mom I’ll post them on Flickr for you all to see   We also played games after (it was the first time I’ve played Uno in years!!!) .  Tonight Jean and I used our free credit on Shaw-on-Demand to rent Julie and Julie – at was a really sweet movie, and it totally made us want to cook!  Unfortunately, our cupboards are a little on the empty side until Wednesday, and it’s 9:30 at night!  Haha not a convenient time to cook!

So tomorrow is Monday, and it’s back to reality.  Papers due, want ads to comb through, and a puppy to walk.  Might I see you here again soon?
