New news, anyone?...

Thursday, April 20, 2006

I spoke on the phone with my brother today, and he sounds great. He may get out of the hospital soon, sooner than expected. I will be going to see him for his birthday in a couple of weeks. Even better than the physical recovery, he is meeting with a psychologist, which I think is great and will help him immensely.

I have been up to my ears hiring summer researchers and filling out paperwork. Blech blech blech, but it will be a great thing once we are all working away on projects this spring and summer.

The weather is still cold and rainy. It actually snowed a bit yesterday morning and might again tomorrow (nothing that stuck to the ground). Seeing flurries, even if they are simply swirling in the sky this late in the season, is horrible. At the same time, I can hear the spring peepers chirping away, heralding the arrival of new frogs :)

Now, I have three hours of housework to cram into ten minutes, before Survivor begins...

    Hey Cathy,

    I'm glad to hear your brother is getting better.

    I think you're getting the April snows Calgary normally gets. Meanwhile, we are basking in 20C weather.

    Ah, sunshine and blue skies.
