Happy New Year!

So I totally disappeared for the rest of the month.

It was just crazy.  After my last post, I got hit with a really bad sinus infection.  My doctor is the other side of the city, and so I went to a walk in clinic.  It was a huge fight to get medicine, the first doctor wouldn't give me any, saying that antibiotics wouldn't help because the infection wasn't bacterial (but that's what a sinus infection is), and that I need to open my windows and keep my bedroom at 8 degrees Celcius with a towel by my head. I went back to a different doctor the next day, as I've had enough of these to know that this one wasn't going away on its own, despite my best efforts.  I finally, FINALLY got some antibiotics, and pain killers to deal with the pain.  Yes, it was that painful.  Stephan came home from his last shift to me crying on the couch. 

So THAT is how my holidays started. 

I had the week off of work of Christmas, and Stephan was home from work for 2 weeks, so I just to an absence from blogging to spend some much needed time with him.  He's on the road so often, so just two weeks of relaxing with him (ok, I still worked the 2nd week, but it was quiet) was absolutely wonderful.

I had a wonderful Christmas, we stayed in Calgary and went over to our Calgary family on Christmas day.  And New Years was quiet, just me and Stephan.  We went out for a nice dinner, and then spent the night cuddled up on the couch.

So, Stephan has gone back to work as of yesterday, and life is back to normal. 

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!
