Happy Easter 08!

I am sorely falling behind in my commitment to blog daily. A couple of barriers: I've take a job so time is of the essence, and my service provider's service has been "tetchy" to say the least.

The job: am now working for the Canadian Association for Independent Living, a non-profit organization which seeks to provide the ways and means for disabled people to fully participate in life. They're a national organization serving as the hub for a series of 28 independent living resource centres across Canada. Be sure to visit their CAILC site and learn more!

We were happily surprised yesterday when Jan and the twins dropped in on their way to visit Jan's sister in Ottawa! The boys are taller than ever with feet the size of snowshoes! Unfortunately, Jesse had to work so he wasn't with them. We had a lovely visit and learned that Jan will be taking the boys to Cuba next year!

We dined with Lyn and Paul then while the guys reclined, Lyn and I got her laptop connected to her service provider so she could retrieve her email. We ended up consulting some teckies in Delhi who are wonderfully helpful once you get past their accented English and the phone line cutting in and out. E-mail will likely become Paul's job and I can envisage him sitting at the kitchen table, emailing the world and laughing maniacally at the all the jokes his extended family (most notably Jack and Sybil) will be sending. Welcome to the e-world, Lyn and Paul!
