Happy New Year!

Welcome to 2012 folks, we're almost half way through the first month, hope new years was good to all of you. We had a low key New Years Eve, as we have the last few years. Breanna was out babysitting and we had Josh, Alyson and the baby here with us. We wanted to ring in the new year with some fire works but it was a rotten, rainy, foggy night so we had to pass on the fire works.







We got Doug's Dad settled in his new home, down in Lunenburg, he seems to like it so far but it will be nice when they have a place for him in the home here, much better than 45 minutes away. Doug's Mom hasn't been doing too well and is back in the hospital for probably the 4th time in the last couple months. She's been diagnosed with the same thing as Dad, Parkinson's and dementia, strange eh? 2 parents, same diagnoses within 7 months. So needless to say, sooner or later Mom is going to have to go in to a home too. The Dr. wants to talk to us on Monday and I have a feeling this is one of the things he'll want to talk about.






So I finally got a call to book my surgery...again. Feb. 15th will be the day that. Not looking forward to it at all. I know it's supposed to help but knowing I'll be out of commission for about the next 6 months sucks. My niece is getting married in June in Cape Breton so that will be an interesting drive, think it will take all day so we can make lots of stops so I can get out and move around. Breanna is going to be in the wedding as a brides maid and is very excited about it, we've been looking for dresses on line and have it narrowed down to a few.






Anyway, I should go throw the laundry in, the never ending job around here. Have a good one!
