Yes, we're still here

I guess one post per month is about the most I can eke out these days.  The time flies past without even realizing.  No excuses, other than the same ones you've seen before, just too darn busy.  And Twitter has become my big timesuck.

The main reason I logged in today was, I did want to share this article about the health care system in Canada vs. the US.

Aside from that, mainly business as usual.  Kids are OK, business is OK (but never as good as we'd like it to be!) at the store, and we long for leisure time and activities.  We are going to break free and do something fun this weekend for the 4th of July, looking like a two-night stay at the lake, so that should be GREAT!

Brian and Sonya's wedding consumed a lot of last weekend, a great time was had by all - Cosmo and Maureen visiting, me camping with the men bachelor party style in Black Rock country, the Pub and Sub dinner the night before the wedding, the wedding at beautiful Galena Creek park featuring homebrewed hefeweizen by Marc Tiar, and the reception at Brian and Sonya's house afterwards, celebratory as you might expect.  It was truly a fun-filled span of days.

Tasty is now an outdoor cat, venturing out most of the time, overnight even on some occasions, and is no worse for the wear.  Hopefully the time spent outdoors will cut down on cat dander in the house, a potential help for Lola's allergies.  She goes in for her sinus CT scan tomorrow, then back to the ENT a week or so later for assessment.  Hoping for the best.

Also since last post, Morgan and I went to see Mamma Mia, her birthday gift redeemed finally, and we had great time.  I'm not too macho to say I enjoy a good musical.  Sushi dinner before the show didn't hurt.

Well, I suppose that's all I have interesting enough to post for now.  I know I never got those videos posted.  Someday when I have some free time.  Until then, see you next month (easy to say since June ends in about 6 hours!)
