April has sped by like a Shinkansen. Let’s check-in, shall we?
- We had our initial meeting with our new lawyer. We’re finalizing our new wills later this week.
- We got our new credit card in the mail (1.5% cash-back on international purchases).
- Sadly removed Sri Lanka from our wish list due to the Easter bombings.
- We talked with the oldest kid’s school about the school board’s “Reach Ahead” program so that he can start grade 9 online courses in grade 8. We really liked the sound of the online courses TVO / ILC provides. The first talk with the guidance counselor ended with a “no.” We’re hoping to meet with the principal later? If it doesn’t work out we may just homeschool over the grade 8 year and do it ourselves. Hack your education!
- I really enjoyed this video from Max Joseph about how to read more books in your lifetime. Lots of sweet bookstore eye candy here!
- I am also very excited about this Fug Girl’s Guide to London.
