We moved in my current apartment in May 2004. I was pregnant at the time, due for the first days of September. It was my friend Nathalie (aka Aubrée de Gui in the SCA) who was living here and told me that she was moving in with her beloved.

It was a nice neighborhood when I moved in, the owner was cool and took are of his ( Read more... )

Well!

The two worst Chinese puzzles have untied themselves with very little intervention on my end, and so did the 3rd one!

Current rent lease: SOLVED

My father told me he would take care of my rent in Trois-Rivières if I was hired... That's not something I would have asked him, but that was not negotiable: "You had the wind in your face for so long, ( Read more... )

 My test has been received and forwarded to Anaïs, who was in video conference with us from Oslo. They will review it and Bety should get back to me by Friday next week.

So, that gives me about a week to think further about solutions to the challenges of resettling with my son. Here they are, in no particular order.

Well, the interview day was yesterday. More coincidences kept occurring.

Since Luke and I met, we both experienced a countless amount of coincidences, as if we had finally fell on the track we were meant to be into. There is a definite sense of fate in all this. It kept going likewise yesterday.

For my own sanity, I need beauty-happiness-callitwhatyouwant. I need my daily intake of Vitamin Good. When I can't find any healthy source of Vitamin Good around me, it means things have gone terribly wrong.

Friday, I didn't send my son to school and kept him home until this morning. He caught a particularly nasty cold. Hopefully, he's resilient and he's already feeling a lot better, and he was ready to go to school this morning. Four days in a row home, I know I'll have some catching up to do on stuff I couldn't do while he was around. So be it. For ( Read more... )

Status: slightly zombie, but okay.

I took a nap after my son left for school this morning. He's having a hard time lately, both at school and at home. I don't know exactly how it's happening, so I'm planning on having a chat with Lucie, my son's class teacher, and with Cynthia, the specialized educator and teacher's helper. The daily status ( Read more... )
