A Sign of the Times

Wow! November is already here, as October flew by. It has been a busy month. With Julia gone, the fundraising is being completed entirely by the two of us (with the help of the staff). We are organizing all of the events. This month we had two Bingos, two Flea Markets, Cake Auction, Haunted House, and a Adult Dance. In total we have fundraised more than $3,500 in just 4 weeks.

We welcomed November with a beautiful day. The high was probably around 5 degrees celsius with a wonderful sun. If I had had the grade 9s in the afternoon for gym, we would have gone outside for some baseball. Obviously the weather won't last, but we are enjoying it all the same. The lack of sunlight in the morning is quite annoying. It has been getting hard to get up in the morning with it pitch black outside. The time shifting will help, but it only means we have less sunlight after school. We aren't quite ready for that yet (walking home from school with the sun already set), but you can't have it both ways.


While at the dance someone brought a costume in a bag. It was a basketball that was to be worn like a shirt. I thought the instructions/cover was different. See if you can notice:



I remember the slogan used to say, "One Size Fits All." Apparently all was incorrect. Might sound stupid, but I thought it was a little funny/sad.
