Cory's Getting an Academic Letter

We got a letter from the school recently. They're having a ceremony to award academic letters to the students who have earned them. It's nice that you don't have to be a sports star to earn a school letter, that they recognize high academic achievement, too. After all, that's why these kids are going to school - to get an education. We were watching Coach Carter this weekend and just shaking our heads at the fact that even the parents didn't get it. They'd rather have their boys play basketball than get an education and do well in school?

I'm going to have to miss the letter awards because it's the third Tuesday of the month. That means I've got a Library Board meeting at the same time, so Jeffrey will have to take him. Right now I'm supposed to be typing up the minute's from last month's meeting. Every month I say I'm going to get it done right away, but every month I wait until the last minute. Then I'm looking over my notes trying to figure out what I wrote and what it means. What is that? Share a Mizuno golf? What does that have to do with the library? Oh wait - I think it's Mystery book. That was it, that share a mystery book night that I missed.

Wish me luck. Hopefully these minutes will be halfway readable.
