Stuff

Hi folks.

It has been awhile since I talked to you so I thought I would update you on a few things.

Connie and I attended the Hockey Canada Annual General Meeting in Montreal at the end of May and it was a very good weekend. Despite the fact that the weather in Saskatchewan was around 2 degrees and snowing, the weather in Montreal was spectacular with highs of 35 degrees and no wind. For whatever reason I was able to keep my implants set quite low so my speech was actually understandable. But alas, it didn't last and after being home for a few days I had to turn them back up and my voice was back to its old slurring self. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

I think we finally figured out why I have felt so lousy from November through till April. The start of my downward spiral coincided exactly to when I received my H1N1 flu shot and got worse until mid January when I slowly started to pull out of it. One thing I know for sure which has been confirmed, is that I contracted a mild case of bells palsy which fortunately was caught early and treated by my family doctor. Given the number of people who in this area who got sick, some quite seriously as a result of the flu shot, I consider myself lucky.

June has not brought anything to exciting. The weather has finally smartened up so we have been able to spend some time at Herbert Ferry Park. I have a fairly busy summer with Hockey but hopefully we will be able to spend some time at the Lake.

Talk to you all again soon.
