back in the game

So here I am back in Thunder Bay. It was a great summer in Kenora, but it's nice to be home. Let's see, what's new...

Andy moved to TBay to start his masters, which is in prostate cancer research. It's keeping him pretty busy. He started playing hockey in the LU league and that seems pretty fun.

I started playing hockey too. I'm not on the Wolves anymore (actually, most of the Wolves aren't Wolves anymore -- they're Hawks), and since I've been back, my new team (The Wild) is 0-2. But hopefully things will pick up.

And the biggest news... Griffin! He's our new puppy. He's 10 weeks old now, part American Eskimo and part various terrier. Very cute. 7.4 pounds this week, up from 4.6 pounds three weeks ago. Housebreaking is going pretty well, although sometimes late in the evenings he'll run to the door and pee before we get there. Could be worse -- at least it's linoleum. His favourite toy is his rawhide bone, followed closely by his stuffed beaver (read into that what you will). He's learning to play fetch with his ball. Really, he's just adorable.
