It’s my little sister's birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sage! It’s days like this that remind me why I can’t wait to move. I have missed out on so much in my family’s lives that I really don’t want to miss any more. Sometimes I have to remind myself of this as I look at ALL of our stuff and what we need to do!
Also…REMY GOT THE JOB! We are so excited. It’s for the summer and he will be working on an organic farm. He starts work on Monday! We went for a nice celebratory dinner. Although I am so happy and excited (I can’t stress that enough) it’s also just a little bit sad that Remy will be gone three days a week. We are so blessed that he has gotten this job but I have gotten used to us being together 24/7 for the last year and a bit. Now I just have to hear back from some of the jobs I have applied to so I won’t be so lonely. Although with all of this stuff to do I might not have time to be lonely! Cedar Farms (where he will be working) has said that if I want I can come volunteer so that might be an awesome experience.
Last night I didn’t get to the books like I wanted to but I did today. It was like saying goodbye to good friends and all you readers out there probably know exactly what I mean. We are slowly getting the storage and our front room done but I need to get some boxes to put everything.
Research:
We have been looking at ways to get there and just for fun we were looking at the price difference between flying and doing greyhound. It’s about a $200 price difference but a 3 day and 8 hour ride. I am pretty sure NO ONE would want to be on a bus with me after about day 1 let alone sit next to me. So although it would be an awesome option for the budget we just aren’t that insane.
I also just want to thank everyone for reading my blog. I honestly wasn’t sure if people would even be interested so it’s exciting to know some of you are actually reading. AND if anyone is reading and knows how to make our blog actually look nice I would LOVE your help!
well i jsut visited your blog and wow chelsea, you are a great writer too!.
ReplyDeletemoving is confusing isnt it. you just have to bite the bullet. change can be a very good thing. i wish it was'nt as far away for me! but i understand. i have heard good things about london. and 5 hours really isnt bad. close enough to visit, but far enough you dont rely on them too much. it will be an adventure. great for remy finally getting some work! and if it is only a summer job it will help you out a bit and you dont have to feel bad about leaving. kind of convenient i'ld say. as for parting with so much. it is hard, but after awhile that goes away. after all it is the past, and you have your whole future ahead of you. although i would try to keep at least a shoebox of you memorabelia. anyway i look forward to keeping up to date with whats going on. love you both and it was so awesome to see you. one day it will be some one on one time. i would enjoy that.
Thanks for reading! I just thought it would be a great way for us to keep our families updated who we don't get a chance to talk with on a regular bases. Thank you very much for the compliment I used to write all the time and now that I know people are reading I might make it a bit more interesting. :D 5 hours isn't bad at all and my family is so thrilled to have us. His job did work out so perfectly we really are blessed. I am glad we got to visit although I am sad I was so sick most of the time. We will be back for another visit for sure!
ReplyDeleteChelsea, you silly goose, I would LOVE to sit next to you on a Greyhound!!! Do you know how much FUN That would be?!?!?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteThat's a LONG trip though...on one hand, you'd see a lot of Canada, but then again...it's such a long time to be sitting in a bus!
