K started his new semester yesterday. He made friends with an identical twin last semester and it seems the other twin will be in one of his classes this semester. I laughed when he said it will be pretty much like having the other one in his class. This one is apparently more reserved with strangers, but he felt that wouldn't be a problem as he already knows him. It's also time to start registration for his grade 10 courses next year. Interestingly, he wants to be in co-ed gym next year!
L's school is supporting an Olympic athlete and they are planning to sell ice cream sundaes as one way to raise money for the athlete. L's tennis arm has been bothering her and the doctor said it's a sprain, that she has to rest it for a week. Well, I'm glad it wasn't a tendon.
I was at the bank yesterday getting a money order for a birthday gift. I asked the teller how those email money transfers work. She thought they worked quite well and thought all you need is the other person's email id. It might be something to try one of these days, particularly as I get a free one per month on my banking plan.

I would want to be very careful with the email money order thing. I would want to use someone PayPal just incase I got the wrong info and someone got the money and not the intended (which is something I would so do)
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to make friend with twins...sometime identical but different character.
ReplyDeleteRoxi has two sets of twins in her grade this year! There was one set last year. I think twins are awesome :-)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about L, but yes, glad it's not worse. Hope she feels better soon.
SoccerMom, thanks for the warning, you're right, I won't rush into this one before knowing more about how it works, maybe that's why I haven't done it all these years.
ReplyDeletePete, I've never really known twins personally that I can remember
Japra, 2 sets, wow. There's always something happening with L, but thanks. M gave her a hat to wear around the house last night as she's been itching her head due to the stress of all her undertakings.
