Another week has passed on the shore of Lake Superior in my hometown. The weather has been sunny, but not very warm, so we haven't manage to melt off much snow. Still, the drifts are disappearing and the lawns and fairways are starting to appear. I've been back at bus driving, and that continues to go well. In between trips, I've been working on the investments, and I had a very good week there, earning more than a 1% gain. I've also been cheering on Amber Holland at the women's world curling championships in Denmark. She has had an up and down week, but mostly up. After losing to Denmark in the round-robin, she defeated Switzerland, Denmark and China in the playoffs and has advanced to the final tomorrow against Olympic Gold medalist, Sweden. We'll be cheering! We've been looking at upgrading our main vehicle, and have been looking around the car lots. It seems our car got in a snit about it and quit this week. Fortunately, our mechanic was able to track down the problem, and we're back running again sans a fair amount of cash!
Wendy has been busy with work, and working around our vehicle problems. She has also been doing further consulting over her medical issues, especially her feet. At this point, she has decided to upgrade her footwear and add orthotics to support her better. We hope this will relieve her pain and give her greater mobility.
Erin and Kristian continue with their usual roles. Kristian is showing a great love and interest in learning. Last night he even insisted on shutting down the TV so he could work on his letters! Yikes! That's a little too serious!
Trav is getting geared up for the Stanley Cup playoffs. There remain a few games while teams continue to struggle for playoff spots, but he's mainly hoping Crosby will complete his recovery and be able to get back playing in time for his Penguins to make a long playoff run. In the meantime, he's continuing with work and photography projects. Joanna is taking her written and practical exams. She is not enjoying that, but is really looking forward to being finished.
