Graduation-- again--



This afternoon is Lisbon's graduation ceremony. I'm actually attending this year, and I hope it goes without a hitch. There's already one small issue, but no one else is likely to notice. Their class quote is attributed to Abraham Lincoln, but it is not his words-- and I let their advisers know this. However, the banner was already at the printer's, so-- yeah. All those months and years of "check your sources" comes down to a quick Google search by a few and they didn't do their due diligence. O well. Likely, I will be the only person who is annoyed by the fact that they didn't verify it. I only reviewed one of the speeches-- not the valedictory or salutatory-- so I have no idea what we are in for. They will be fine, if not memorable, as these things go. The one I did see, I helped with a little, and it will be short and to the point (it's the "thanks for coming" one). I don't know what songs they chose, but I assume they will be typical/ sort of okay. Leaving so many details to the students means it always seems a little ragged, but it works for them. There is, once again, no guest speaker, so we don't have to worry about that. 

Honestly, I'm just glad they all made it to this day, and we'll be able to wish them well. 

I also plan, after the event, to get my herbs and the last of the tomatoes planted. I hope, anyhow. If not, there will be tomorrow. 

I hope you have a good day,

C
