For a bit of good news, son K has secured another field placement starting in September. Fingers crossed this one will be better than the last one which did not work out. Time will tell if he is meant to graduate with a full college diploma next year. He already qualifies for a certificate.
In the news, the Toronto library is rolling out book machines at Union Station, a major transportation hub.
And there is a tadpole disease threatening frogs. The frog population has been in decline for years and according to the article, some think we are in a mass extinction of animals and amphibians similar to the dinosaur age.
Glad your son has got a second chance, hope his placement works well this time. Not good about those tadpoles though, it would be awful if all the amphibians died out. Valerie
ReplyDeleteKeeping my fingers crossed for K. I've read somewhere that frogs are the canary in a mine. They are the warning of environmental danger.
ReplyDeleteLove that Minion quote :))

Have a beautiful day Christine!

ReplyDeletesad about the toads, wow,
Best of luck to your son. Tell him not to give up, but to keep plugging along. Good things will happen, you wait and see.
ReplyDeleteFrogs existed before the dinosaurs, if they die, I can only think mankind is responsible
