News Catch-Up!

Sorry, still no photos downloaded as Paul just finished his last two essays for his OPME course on military history today. Now he's done! (and I get to nag him about downloading photos, lol!)

In our news:

1) Milena's CT scan was completely normal with no loss of cerebellum. A big relief, as there's no tumour behind her bad eye, just the retinal disease to worry about. :)
2) Nathan had his CT scan Friday 20th, and after they gassed him they were finally able to get the IV in. We'll find out about his report in a week or so. He's going for another EEG in Regina General Hospital May 15th, as his one in Moose Jaw showed "some abnormalities" but the neurologist couldn't determine what they were.
3) The CMHA in Winnipeg is "tentatively" holding the 4 bdrm house we want at 277 Ubique Cres. It has a nice yard and garage, which we have to have for the bike, etc. However, if another family is set to move in May or June they have first dibs. The CMHA told Paul they'd phone him if that happens and see if we want to pay rent on it early, in order to hold it. Plse pray that doesn't have to happen! We'd really like that house.
4) We've finally got some weekend respite at a group home in Regina. Only 3 weekends of it before we move, but hey, it's better than nothing! :) The kids will get to go swimming, to the movies, the parks, etc. so they'll be nice and busy.
5) I'm working away on rewriting my "biker book", which I hope to have done in June and queries out to agents during the last two weeks of June. I'm turning it into a romantic suspense/mainstream book instead of the "category" Harlequin way I had to write it before. (only to be rejected)
6) Paul has his french course till May llth, and we're hoping his oral and written exam go well. He's worked really hard, and this "standard" of his bilingualism will stand for the next five years.

Loved the new pics on Kev & Becky's blog! So nice to see more of Eva, too. That's what this family blogging is all about - keeping in touch.

love to all,
Laurie
