Exam Week
We have had to enforce stricter bedtimes, quiet times, respect for others... because it is exam week for the high school students. Zoe has three exams and Amelia has two. They are both finished by Thursday.
It looks like Amelia is planning to continue working during the summer (at Loblaws) -- she had been threatening to quit because it's "boring", but I guess she likes money. Hurray! Our secret plot to addict her to money has worked.
We are encouraging Zoe to work part-time this summer - either babysitting or gardening. She will be 15 in July, and so could maybe get a crappy job at a fast food restaurant, but that wouldn't be much fun.
Dorothy is also panicking as she has a small essay due by Monday. Oh the joy of summer university courses!
