News Update

Another week has passed on the shore of Lake Superior in my home town. The weather has returned to mild, and the snow is disappearing. I have had a busy week watching curling as the men's national championship continues. Two of my favourites made the playoffs; Kevin Koe won the semi-final and will play in the final tomorrow. Jamie Koe will play in the bronze medal game. It has been a no-good-very-bad week on the markets, and I'm down a bit. Wendy is still in Regina where she and her dad celebrated birthdays this week. I had another visit with my denturist and my new partial plate is almost ready. I even had one day back driving school bus, as a regular driver took some time off. Now we're into Daylight Saving Time and Spring Break here. However, being retired, I do not get any holidays or even time off! 

Eric/A and crew are carrying on with their usual activities this week, but are off for a week of tropical holidays in Mexico over Spring Break. They are enjoying their new CRV, and wondering why it took them so long to upgrade. Eric is trying to negotiate some driving privileges; so far, he is allowed to drive slowly on the driveway, and never NEVER on a Monday. Haaken & Liam are glad to have a week off school. We hope they have a good time in Mexico with not too much heat! 

Erin and Kristian continue with their usual routines. Kristian enjoyed snowshoeing at school this week. He's continuing to progress well. He enjoys helping Grandpa make muffins and cookies, but doesn't keep up on the eating end of the program! His favourites so far have been bran muffins and banana muffins. 

Trav and Joanna keep busy with work. Trav's team is in the playoffs now, but due to finishing on top of the league had a bye in the first round. Still no action on establishing his office, although he has a pretty good set up at home. 

And that's about it for this week.
