And on the home front ... tomorrow ...

Claire is due home from her trip to Valcartier!

Kev is due home from his last hospital stay ... hurray!

Alison is staying home all day, so she will be helping Dad settle in and "home-schooling" for the day (and she is saying "hurray!")

I'll be driving Kev to Kingston on Monday for a follow-up/stitches out appointment with his ortho. surgeon. I feel an odd undercurrent ... will they keep him once again?

It looks like Kev will be off until the end of February. He'll be able to return to some of his HR duties online from home, but the office is not wheelchair/crutch accessible in the least.

Oh, and I neglected to mention one more incredible "coincidence" re: these last couple of weeks. Since we've been back to Canada, we have not had extra health insurance. For my American friends, the basics are covered by provincial health care in Canada. Emergency hospitalization, doctors visits, etc. Supplemental health care, such as dental, sometimes glasses, drug coverage, physio, better hospital rooms, etc. , can only be had by having extra health insurance. For five years, we had no supplemental coverage ... and no major illness. Our extra benefits package (a very, very good one) kicked in December 1st. Kev was hospitalized (for the first time) January 9.

Hmmm. :-).
