Through Laura’s medical situation we have discovered that this and every community needs more nurses and home health workers. Our kids need to be made aware of these options because they will always have work because people get sick and need to get well all the time. It would be awesome to see more of our high school grads pursuing these occupations.

Returning To Work
Back to work, remotely. Thanks to my Blood Assurance team for being flexible to let me care for Laura and work from home. I haven’t forgotten how to make calls and talk to people.
Twenty Years With WordPress.com. How Can That Be?
How can it be that I’ve been with WordPress.com for twenty years? Now, I haven’t posted here for twenty straight years. I was posting elsewhere like Tumblr and Google’s Blogger platform among others. To everyone who has visited here, read my posts, interacted with me, and shared their stories I thank you. This is a great community. Blogging is very much alive in the hearts and minds of those who believe in its power to tell a better story and share more.
Keep on Blogging Good People!
A Saturday Morning Breakfast
This Saturday morning required pancakes, sausage and Tim Hortons coffee. It was a great way to start the day. Have a great day good people.
Welcome The Weekend
The weekend is here and I am glad. This feels like a weekend because I am scheduled to return to work remotely on Monday. I hope I remember how to do my job after a month away on family medical leave for my wife’s health scare. Let’s make it a good one good people.
Hi There! I Am Alive and Well
Friends, it’s been awhile since my last post. I have been taking care of my wife who had emergency surgery on April 18th to deal with a serious infection that was life-threatening. She had 3 surgeries to be sure all the infection and affected tissue was removed.
After her hospital stay she went to a physical and occupational rehabilitation hospital to heal and get stronger. I can say she is doing much better. Thank goodness for family, friends, work and insurance.
I have been her caretaker throughout all of this. This is what you do for someone you love. Taking care of wounds is a new skill I have. You know it may come in handy again sometime in the future.
This is an update that will mean the resumption of more regular posts. I have missed blogging, but other things have had my attention. My hope is that things will continue to get better, and we return to some sort of normalcy. I feel a Wordless Wednesday coming on tomorrow.
