Still In Michigan

I'm still in Michigan. Funny, so is Rebeca! She's off with her Mom who is getting some tests done at the hospital and I'm sitting at home with the dogs (one bitey and one not) and her GrandMom (who is watching the soaps....save me Jeebuz!). The weather has been really crappy, rain and cold. The birds, colourful and plentiful, don't seem to mind the rain much and last night a possum wandered up the driveway and helped himself to the seed and feed fallen from the bird feeders. We spent a large part of yesterday and again today trying to get the wireless rig here to work. It is working now but without security so that's a bit of a problem. I'm not sure how much since we're out in the country and the only people who might use the connection appear to already have one of their own. We did the rounds of the stores in search of hard to find (and cheap) Star Wars crap. I managed to find a few figures but none of the big stuff. I'm on my way back to Ottawa on Thursday, hopefully my new laptop will arrive on Friday (bless employee purchase plans!). Cross your fingers for nice weather for the Memorial Day weekend.
