Welcome to 2007
Well, the holiday season is now officially all over. I've had a whole week back at work, and Mike gets home from Ontario tonight. I got to go to Edmonton with my dad and Janice this last weekend to visit the grandparents. Got to eat lots of great food, and made it home with a lot. Pasta sauce, jams, frozen home grown veggies, more potatoes than one person really ever needs, bread, cookies... the list could go on, but I'm getting full just thinking about it. Happily, my grandparents are doing well, and it's always nice to see them. We didn't do any other visiting this time, since we were only actually in town for 1.5 days in all.
In other news, the braces are getting less annoying by the day. My teeth seem to be moving very quickly, and I'm hoping they're doing better than the orthodontist would have expected so that the process will go more quickly. I finally get to meet the surgeon who will be cutting up my jaw in March. These guys are darn near impossible to get meetings with. I got to set up the meeting in mid December, and March was the earliest it got. At least I'll get to find out then exactly what he wants to do, how much it'll cost me, and whether my insurance company will pay for any of it... Here's hoping.
What other news is there? We're currently working on deciding what trips to do this year. Right now it's looking like Nova Scotia and Ontario in the summer. I've never been to Nova Scotia, but seem to know a lot of people who live/lived out there, and would love to see it. Ontario would be nice since it would be another week at the cottage, last year was lots of fun. Other thoughts are trying to plan a trip for Mike's spring break in April. I don't know where, but he has a whole week off, and it would be a great time to travel, not high season like summer and Christmas. Hopefully lots of camping/hiking/canoeing/backpacking will happen this summer to round it out.
