And so am I still around......

I'm still here and trying to keep warm.  I expect you folks are glad to shove some of your frigid weather our way. And there is Pati and Dave headed soon for the warmth and comfort of the tropics. Good on you....
We went to Huntsville today to do our 'rounds" and then visit Phyllis, our elderly lady friend at the Home. She is in bed last two days - has open wounds on both legs and now coccyx.  They have ordered a swing back wheelchair for her, to relieve the pressure on her coccyx, but she isn't eating well. Without proper nutrition, she'll never heal. Her daughter Carolyn is gong to take some nutritional supplements next visit and try to fool Phyllis into thinking she has a milkshake. She said she was able to fool her when she lived with them, but I think not likely to work again.
I had a Tim's coffee, and toasted four cheeses bagel with cream cheese for lunch at the food court in the Mall, and thought of you both. I even secretly toasted to us all as I took a sip of my Dark Roast coffee! Sometimes you just have to do, what you want to do right? haha!  
Tomorrow we go to North Bay and this time we shall be going to McDonalds! (only the best restaurants for us) Actually it is family day at Erin's restaurant, and we were invited for Angus Burgers for 5 pm. On Thursday they "go live" with the launch of their new delivery service options, and we will be the ginny pigs for the new chefs to make- to- order burgers that we have ordered ourselves on touch screens inside the restaurant. Then they will serve us our order at our table. It should be fun - this McDonalds is the first in the North to switch to this new approach and Erin was given the task to get it all organized which included attending courses in Toronto, hiring new staff and orienting them, and setting up the restaurant with all the new equipment. So I hope it goes well for her sake.
Time for bed - must rest up for another exciting day tomorrow....Take care
