... could suck when you are hardly able to drag yourself from bed each and every day… How soul destroying the constant pain could be and how emotionally debilitating the whole gloomy picture looked!!

So keeping most of the specialists spinning their wheels I was left month after month to slowly fade (2 years and 10 months to date!!)… In a not too quiet a manner I might add!! … I really understand now why Patrick Swayze was still ...

... seat at the end of the table, her red setter, Shaylee, decided to partake - she quickly scoffed some food from Inie's plate. Everyone's attention turned to the end of the table - perfect opportunity Chester the basset hound must have said to himself because he promptly attacked Chases's pancake. Amazing how these two animals divide and conquer!! The kids went out with their dad to play baseball and I decided to tag along. Both Jr. and ...

... just went home, leaving Steve and I totally bored for the rest of the day. We called up Alan, then walked around Kensington Market, stopping at his friend's book store where I bought a funny little comic for Rosemary and Dan. Then, the rest of the day was spent meandering. Alan spontaneously decided to cover his apartment walls with old kitschy records, so we went rifling through some discount racks and found him some goodies. At one point, I saw ...

... were supposed to be in the air at this point but our plane was late returning due to a medical emergency so we ended up boarding late and thus arriving late.

... breakfast. We came out to walk amongst the falling snowflakes, which soon turned to an irritating rain which continued the entire day. We had a look at the CN Tower (the tallest man made free standing structure in the world) [wow, a long tall building, now that's something you don't see everyday!], the Skydome, the Canadian version of stars on the pavement and various other buildings. By this time we were pretty wet, so we decided to head into a shopping mall on Yonge ...

... I'll be in the Middle East! Alone! I may or may not be adventurous there, but I'll assess the situation when I'm there, meaning I'll see how bored I am when I'm sitting at the airport for 5 hours or so. Ahh!

... well-known sites around Toronto. The city is home to the world’s tallest free-standing tower (553.33 metres or 1,815 ft., 5 inches) and when it’s a clear day, from the top of the CN Tower you really CAN see forever. A busload of Choir baseball fans were in the bleachers as the Toronto Blue Jays hosted the Los Angeles Dodgers for a night baseball game. Toronto boasts ownership of several other pro sports teams (Maple Leafs, Raptors ...
