Good morning from the wet coast of Canada!
I have been busy trying to help the wife out as much as possible, as she tends to lead a very active life and on top of that we have at least two huge Christmas gatherings at our place we are starting to prepare for. She had surgery on her hand that she broke two fingers on and dislocated a third. The hand Doc said the Emergency Doc did a great job setting them all back into place, however, the fact she is so active and won't behave herself meant it was not stable enough to let heal without being pinned. So, as a result, she has what looks like a bunch of big turkey skewers sticking out of her hand pointing in all directions. I am enjoying keeping my pliers at the ready for the day they get removed.
Apparently, they just pull them out without a local or anything else, as it is not suppose to hurt at all. I think a good stiff drink would be required before the procedure at least. 
The kid was asked for an on-camera interview for his bit he did for X-Men Legion. It was only a minor part, though he did spend a day with Dan Stevens shooting the part. He had a lot of good laughs with him that day. He has turned down a part in the show "Once Upon A Time" as it interfered with school. I was proud of him for having his priorities straight. They even offered to try and be flexible in their schedule for him, but it was still a time commitment he didn't want to make. I think he is in for making some serious money in the movie/TV industry next summer before he goes off to Law school. That'll pay a few bills.
The kid dislocated his shoulder last Friday playing Hockey. We got to the ER at 2200hrs and left at 0800hrs. They had a heck of a time getting it to go back in. Last time he did the other side and we were in and out of the hospital in no time. They did eventually got it in and we went home. I am tooooo old to be pulling all nighters. To think I use to work all night and go skiing or play a round of golf before hittin the hay. Now the thought of having to do something like that makes me think that I could have never have been that same guy.
Well, I got my turntable out of the box before I was summoned by the boss. I try to get to her aid as quick as I can, or she will do it herself. Doctors make the worst patients, don't ya know. At least I got something done in the last week. 
All the best to all!
