American Health Care

Today I had my first check up with my new American doctor.  I was a little confused with the insurance paperwork, the co-pay amounts and the idea of getting a receipt when I left the doctor's office.  But the thing that really shocked me?  They have valet parking at the hospital.

Puxatony Phil was right....

Spring has arrived early in Philadelphia.  Today was a beautiful day, with sunshine and warm temperatures.  Tomorrow they are calling for a high of 20 degrees!  How's the temperature in Canada?

New Car

We bought a new car!  It's a 2010 Ford Fusion.  I took it out for a spin today, and it was great.  However, now I'm nervous about having a shiny new car in a neighbourhood where the 'touch and feel' method of parallel parking is popular.
