Tomorrow’s just a day away
This time tomorrow I will be high above the clouds on the first leg of my journey to AB. It seems so long ago that J began the same journey and it’s not until today, after I checked-in, did it start to feel real. Like it was happening. Now I don’t know what to do with myself. Such a bag of mixed emotions. Sad to leave. Happy to see J. Excited about new beginnings. Apprehensive about the ol’West. Did I mention I’m excited to see J. hehe I honestly can’t believe that this time tomorrow, I’m gone. I’m outta here. Wow. It’s starting to feel all too real now. But…

Last afternoon in the PC
In a few short hours, I will be driving away from the place I’ve always known as home to the place that is going to become my new home with J. The past few days have been pretty good. I’ve got to do almost everything I wanted to do but of course, life had other plans in mind. I did manage to get to Dad’s and I was going to go to the beach one final time with Mom but ‘Charles’ had another thing in mind. I couldn’t escape the Maritimes without Jeep troubles. One for the road I guess. Charles had different plans and it wouldn’t have been the…

Life’s a beach
…Melmerby Beach. Such an awesome place. No wonder I fell in love with it many moons ago. The offshore breeze. The sun. The children’s laughter all around. The crashing of the waves. The wind whistling through the dunes. It’s perfection. I didn’t know how I’d feel going to the beach alone but I loved it. Popped in the mp3 player and read a book. And oh yea, I did one sudoku. But I turned it in after a few hours because I would have read all of my book and I need that on the plane to keep me sane. I forgot how quickly I read. Half way through my…

THIS Friday
My last week as a Maritimer has begun. By the end of the week I will be a Maritime transplant in the big ol’province of AB. It seems so far away but I know it’s not. The weather channel tells me so because the day I’m leaving is part of the forecast. So I know it’s close. The weather looks like it’s going to be decent on Friday, not that it matters though. But what does matter is the weather this week and it’s going to be beautiful. Sun, sun, sun and more sun. The heat is going to be around as well. Mother Nature must be aware of my…

Just my luck
Well, I sit here on the verge of my last week with things about to get busy. And guess what. I blew something out in my back. And it hurts. A LOT. I bent down to pick up my cosmetic bag in the bathroom yesterday afternoon and crack. Ouch. Let’s just say it took me 20 or so minutes to figure a way out of bed this a.m. I’m not even standing straight. My whole body is leaning to the right and I can’t seem to fix it. I’m hoping it’s just going to pop back into place on it’s own and I can continue with all that I had…
