I'll add my sympathies, a virtual beer of choice and
add a signed excuse from ever having to visit Canada
in the heart of winter (suitable for framing if
desired). Hey, you're going to at least end up with a
large collection of excuses!

On the other side, Nyssa got her marks yesterday and
will be repeating her Grade 12 Math class again next
year in the hopes of getting her mark up (she had a
50% this time - not good enough to get her into
university and not helping her grade average). Am I
going to kill her? No, we both know math is her not
her forte. She should have recognised that she needed
a tutor and asked the school for help. I leave these
things to her. She's old enough to know if she needs
help. My mother completely disagrees with this
philosophy, but it's worked well so far. I may cut
back her social life a bit at the beginning of next
school year, at least until we see a progress report
(mid-October), but other than that, it's up to her.
She knows she wants to go to university and what it
will take to get there. 

Sheryll, rambling horribly but at least not worrying
about the fact that one of my MCs for Sunday has
suddenly cancelled!
