So the discussion between my beau and I has reached a point where a decision needs to be made. We have been throwing the idea around of packing up shop and moving to Kamloops, or somewhere in the like... Now, before you get all freaky, and send me e-mails about how Kamloops will kill my spirit, and I thought you moved to Vancouver to get away from small cities, and so on and so forth, hear me out. Now, Jared and I are pretty financially stable, in any sense of the phrase, but what one would consider financially stable in Alberta, is next to peanuts in Vancouver. Here in lies the conundrum. Do I give up the dazzling city scenery, and shopping, and people, and atmosphere that I moved here for, so I can afford to live in a beautiful dream home? Or do I suck it up, and spend the same amount on a crapped out condo in the outskirts of Vancouver? Hmmm.. not too sure where to go with this one. It's not like I have this amazing job, or a tonne of friends keeping me in Vancouver, and it's not like Kamloops is THAT far away (3 hours)... I think it is more the thought of living somewhere that I would never choose to live. (for those of you that are wondering why I'm even considereing this... this is why. Jared is actually full status indian, and he can get a job on reserve in Kamloops doing social work. He would be making about 30% more, and it would all be tax free.)
Speaking of my honey, he is really stressed out, and I'm not sure how to help him. His job is killing him. Imagine having to go to work every morning knowing that you may have to take someones children away? Not a very peachy morning if you ask me. Anyhoo... better get to work.
How do they get the caffeine out of coffee to make it decaf? -discuss...
