Another week has passed on the shore of Lake Superior in my hometown. The weather has been mixed including some more dumps of fluffy white rain, but it disappeared again in the sunshine today. We keep hoping that Spring will finally establish itself. The markets continued to be miserable here while US markets continued upward, but I had a good week anyway. Canada lost the men's curling final game to Sweden—it was an impressive display by Sweden. The Canadian women lost the world hockey championship to the USA; we settled for a couple of silver medals this week. Michigan lost the NCAA basketball final, a third defeat for my choices this week. The dealer contacted us on Tuesday and accepted our offer. Now, we're waiting for them to complete the repairs and upgrades we asked them to do. Wendy had X-rays of her arm and leg; they revealed that nothing was broken, so she looks to some continued therapy to restore full function.
Erica and the boys continue with life in Parksville. Haaken enjoyed a trip to Vancouver to take in a concert by a new band, and see how they combined their instrumentation from various eras. Liam has started Spring football league and is enjoying learning to hit people. Eric has pumped up his counselling hours and only has 31.25 left to go. Erica presented her latest draft on the budget realizing about one million is savings and was unimpressed with their lack of exuberance over her efforts! The Mazda car has fallen on bad times issuing steam and spewing green gunk on the roadway. Erica thinks they may have run over or ingested an alien! They are assessing the situation!
Erin and Kristian have been fighting some health issues recently. Kristian, in particular, has been hacking. They continue to enjoy a snowy winter in Regina. It appears planting season will be delayed on the prairies. Erin is particularly interested in having the Blue Jays get their season going!
Trav bought a new car; he received delivery on Friday. Joanna has started a new job. Gemma is starting a new year as she hits thirteen on Monday. Andrew has recovered from his leg injury.
And that's about it for this week.
