The main activity this week for me is the Tour of Sufferlandria and I&#8217;m already a day behind. I&#8217;ll need to do 3 rides today to get back on track. No worries, I&#8217;ve got all day and then the &#8220;gift&#8221; arrives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I get a call from St. Boniface MRI and there has been a cancelation today and can I make a 1pm appointment, which is in 2 hours.  So a quick breakfast\/lunch and off I go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I&#8217;m waiting I hear the receptionist calling to fill other cancelations. Surprisingly, many people turn down the opportunity. Given the typical wait time I&#8217;m not sure why folks are missing out on the opportunity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"700\" data-attachment-id=\"959\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/2021\/02\/14\/my-valentines-day-present\/img_0295\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?fit=1920%2C2560&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1920,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone X&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1613309942&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.16666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"img_0295\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?fit=525%2C700&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-768x1024.jpg?resize=525%2C700\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-959\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bigdadoo.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_0295-scaled.jpg?w=1050&amp;ssl=1 1050w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>The Tube<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re back from Toronto at about 1am and after a snack and some unwinding it&#8217;s 3am before we&#8217;re in bed.
