"Takin' Care of Business"






A "short & sweet" entry before bed to take care of a few items ...

The Home Stretch

We survived another "monsoon" weekend and tomorrow is Day 1 of Dane's final week of DI. We are officially in the home stretch and counting down his treatments. It's been a long and intense eight months and a few week break before Maintenance starts will be a treat.

As promised in last week's entry, I've posted a couple of new photos. We tested the self-timer feature on our new camera to snap the first shot and the other is Clare at three months.
Dragon Boating for Dane

Dirk and I will be paddling our hearts out the weekend of September 12 & 13 at the Manitoba Dragon Boat Festival. This is an annual event and a MAJOR fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society. We are part of the Paddlestar Galactica team and have created a personal fundraising page to collect online pledges. If you are interested, please follow these five easy steps ...
1. Click on the link below
2. Select Pledge a Participant
3. Search by our last name - Hantscher
4. Read our personal page
5. Follow the online pledge instructions

I will provide more race details (date, time and heats) as Sept 12 & 13 draws closer. We are hoping for a BIG turnout to watch our team race - if you have never been to the Forks that weekend, it's an amazing experience!!!
Have a good week everyone.
Take care ... Janie and Dirk

  1. ok I did it, and it was a sucessful donation I think!!! Here is to maintenance Dane, and a smoother fall/winter. Ok so now THIS picture finds Miss Clare looking more unique again, and actually a little like Dirk's big sis Dagmar. Uncle Terry thinks she looks just like him. hmmmmm..... It will be interesting to see who she resembles, but non the less a cute family.
