How do you spell tranquility?
Quack!
How about a cabin on a lake, with ducklings…….
wait up, quit quacking around,
and of course Canadian goslings…..it’s Canada after all!
What could possibly be more calming,
than a peaceful lake,
with paddling ducks,
on a sunny day,
in Canada?
Cheers to you from all the Canadian quackers!
Yes, all the little gooslings around here have also hatched and it’s lovely and tranquil watching them waddle along the waterways and across the streets. Have a wonderful week!

Thank you, my friend. I had 2 big breaks yesterday in pursuing advanced health care for Tom. He’s very ill and I’ve been away from the blogging world trying to stay above water. Yesterday was indeed a great day. NIH has agreed his medical care is so complex they are willing to send 2 physicians to consult on the case and then perhaps actually take Tom on as a patient. I have high hopes.

Excellent news, due I might add, to your diligent efforts as an effective advocate. Once he gets in treatment is there a possibility for a vacation for yourself? You my dear are due from some major TLC and pampering~
