Day 11, 10 and 9

Day 11 on the way to 40! Today was a fun one. My grade 6 year was with Mrs.Murphy and it was a 5/6 split. This was the year I really got to know Brian Dell as a friend. One class presentation I remember was on video games. I got to bring my Intellivision to school and show how video games improves your hand-eye coordination. So today I played some old school video games online. Thanks to everyone who's commented and who's playing along with me remembering the old days. Tomorrow is grade 7 and then after that high school! Cheers!

Day 10! Grade five was Mr.Helm and there was job action with a three day work stoppage. It was a glorious time of bike riding and hanging out with friends. Spelling was very important as it had it's own subject line on my report card. I was not a strong spiller and yet I've turned out ok and one of my jobs is to check spelling now! Today's celebration is to organize and tidy the garage, back yard and deck! Cheers!!

I remember my teacher from grade 3 and 4 was Mrs.Derkatch and she would always talk French to get us to be quiet and sit down. She also had two great memories for me. We deep fried doughnuts one class and she took us to the public library! So today's remembrance was easy. Took the kids to library for Storytime with a stop at Tim Horton's on the way home! Cheers!

I've managed to keep up with the facebook posts and will continue to update this blog as well.
