Thursday, March 11th
JB did an online questionnaire the day before. He usually does one there - as he is part of a study. I packed my water, book, laptop, phone. Last time it took about 15 minutes for JB to get through the COVID screening line at the hospital main entrance.
08:13 – Off we went for the hospital visit. There was rain on the way, but it was quite balmy. It was 9 C. when we arose, and went up to 14 C, again. The rain clouds run north east, so Ottawa, our destination, as well as home, would be getting rain. It's much better than snow, truthfully.
It was a messy ride in. It was lovely to see several flocks of geese in V formation. During our trips, we've seen this development from the beginning, now it is expanding. They tore down the forest, burned and removed it.
I like the building on Bank. My youngest lives somewhere around here. I think.
9:45 a.m. – Our usual entrance is strictly for staff. We were there in lots of time, so we drove around the campus. The melt water splashing was horrid, typical spring weather. My parking lot off Lynn Lane wasn't cleaned out, so I parked on the street with all the other caregivers/drivers. There are a lot of us. There is no point paying $13 to park, when you don't know how long you'll be, and have to wait in the car due to COVID–19.
We drive home by the mansions along River Road. There was this house for sale: $4,795,000. It's 3 acres on the river.
12:45 – We stopped at the end of the drive to empty the mailbox. An eagle! (Archive photo!)

That's a long day for your guys. Not fun at all.
Spring has sprung. Don't forget to set your clock on Saturday night.

I haven't dressed up in nearly four months... it's a good thing to do and maybe I ought to give it a go just to make sure I haven't forgotten how!!! We have a return of winter weather at the moment, which doesn't encourage movement. YAM xx
They say cancer can be a full time job. At least there are birds and humor.
A long drive. I know that intersection at Bank Street well, but haven't been down around Billings Bridge in months.
I find that I am very nervous driving in town these days. I cannot imagine a 2 hour trip into a large city.
Wow! Two hours of driving? That must have been so exhausting. What a scary time for JB.
That is a long drive, and tiring too.
All the best Jan
