End of my 1st semester and Shannon's 2nd

Well I’m finished with my first semester of college minus the final exams I’ll have to take on April 21st & 23rd for English and Math. The courses didn’t seem to hard which was good considering it’s been almost 11 years since I was last in school, I’m just glad to be done with school until May 5th when round two starts. I’ll be taking Math Essentials English 20-1 (grade 11) and Science 14.

Shannon will be taking some more math next semester and she hopes to start her nursing program at Mount Royal College in January.

As far as what else is going on with us it’s really a whole lot of nothing! We both just seem to work and go to school not really having much time to do much else. Although they had the Juno Awards the Canadian version of the Grammy awards here in Calgary a couple of weeks ago and we went to a free concert the city put on downtown with some really cool Canadian artists.

I’m hoping the warm weather starts up soon the 32-45 degree weather everyday and snow is really starting to get old!! Last Thursday was the worst snow I’ve seen yet we had 8 inches of snow fall by noon it was the largest snow fall in such a short period since 1920. You could not see anything the snow was coming down so fast they call it a “white-out” Shannon and I actually stayed home that day the weather was so bad. It was probably a good thing we did stay home as I’ve been sick with Pneumonia for over a week now ( so not fun)

We are planning on coming home to San Diego for a visit at Thanksgiving time again and I’m really excited to see everyone and the Charger schedule just came out and they play a Sunday Night Football game against the Colts on November 23rd and I’m looking into getting tickets so I can go see a game. I really do miss seeing the Chargers play live.
I get all the Padres up here on my computer so I enjoy watching the games everyday, although I wish the Padres would play with some more consistency and start hitting for more power and every time Trevor Hoffman pitches I get so nervous!

Anyway I hope all is well with everyone and miss you all

Josh & Shannon
