Just a quick post to introduce my most recent YouTube video. This one describes the vocal cord surgery I recently had done, and gives you a chance to hear whether my voice has changed at all.

Another post, and so soon! Well, lots has happened.
Our spring came quite quickly this year with temperatures heading to 20+C a few days. The crocuses came up and bloomed last week and the daffodils just yesterday.
Wendy got her first vaccine dose recently - they are pushing to get those working in hospitals done. Seemed to go well.
After a long COVID delay in receiving some new doors for our house (front screen and main door, plus one going into our garage), they finally arrived this week. Parker approved wholeheartedly with the grey colour (his favourite). Below are the old doors mostly dating from 1964 (the screen door was from the late 1990s).

Wendy did another time lapse puzzle and beat her record for a 500-piece puzzle!

With everything else going on, I also got my surgery booked for an injection medialization of my left vocal cord. It is permanently paralyzed due to the nerve being lost during my tumour surgery in October 2019, so we finally got around to dealing with my difficulty speaking. The same surgeon (a grad of the BHSc program!) did this procedure yesterday. I have to not talk for about 5 days (not as easy as I thought!), then will see next week what is different with my voice. I started a before/after video about this procedure this week, but will wait for my voice to be regained and will put it together and post here.
