Update from Saskatoon

Hi To All!

Just a short update. I've had a swelling in my shoulder/neck area since late July. Ultra sound tests indicated some form of malignant mass in that area. Had a surgical biopsy 2 wks ago. Prognosis is some form of lymphoma. I'll get a more definitive answer next week.

Phyl is well, although her new job is a bit of a bore. Not enough for her to do at present. This should change as the payroll person at the main plant is leaving, and the main payroll function will shift to Saskatoon. Phyl is interviewing candidates for payroll clerk. So far, no good ones have put in applications. Too much economic growth in Saskatoon lately, and good workers are hard to find.

Our garden produced lots of tomatoes, carrots, and potatoes, but very few green and red peppers. Those plants grew very large, but for some reason did not produce much in the way of fruit. Same with the zucchinis and cukes.

Work on the house reno continues inspite of the problems with my shoulder and left arm. Still lots to do to finish the basement bathroom as I have to build a very custom vanity cabinet to suit the space. But, I've got that underway, and hope to have it finished by the 18th as we will have house guests for a week starting on that date.

That's it for now.

Love to all !

Lew
