Summer is Here!!

The school year has ended and Summer has finally flooded in! With it finally the temperature is just above 68 degrees! How I wish it was so much warmer!

I know this weekend my wish will come true! It is supposed to get up to 81 Degrees! Now that is finally reaching temperatures I can handle. I will finally thaw and the moss that takes residence on the north side (you can assume any side you want) will finally disappear. The webbing between toes and fingers will finally disappear as we Seattlites finally get the summer we have so been longing for! Ok...Ok...I have so been longing for it, I am not sure about the rest of Seattle but I know I am not the only one looking forward to it.

With the end of the school year came grades....for both Kirby and myself. I am still waiting for his report card in the mail since school got out just a week ago...My grades came in though much higher than I had anticipated. I won't argue with them but I don't think it is a fair evaluation of how I truly did in one class.

Math 3.4
Psychology 3.8
Economics 3.7

All in all not bad at all! However, I know the economics class was graded on a curve, again I am not arguing, but on all of the assignments given I got a 50% or just above on each of them. Having earned a 3.7 in the class I must have been at the high end of the learning curve. Midterm and final I was above a 50% on both but again I must have been at the high end of the curve having earning a 3.7 in the course. The comprehension is what I am most concerned about. I think I am going t0 take some time over the course of the summer and re read the book so I have a head start in the fall.

I know Kirby passed, but still I am anxious as a parent to see how he fared.

It's the waiting game all over again.
