Day 44........feeling better
3 Girls and 4 Suitcases
Today has been a lovely day and not a tear shed.
The day began with a trip to Service Canada to get Alison a Social Insurance number (same as our National Insurance) so that she can get the job that she wants, to earn money to buy lots of clothes. I also needed to go there to get a name change on my current SIN....still under my first married name-Wilson.
I had to laugh when the girl behind the desk asked if I'd had lots of name changes-eh? God job that i wasn't sensitive about it. She was lovely but obviously having a wee bit of an 'I hate my job day', especially when the power went off fleetingly and wiped off all the stuff she'd typed into the computer...oops.
Due to the power-off, Ali had to miss her first period, which was really the second period because it was a late start day. To tell the truth, she would have only missed a few minutes but because of that, we decided to go to Tim Hortons for breakkfast. Ali had had breakfast but I hadn't and I discovered a very tasty bacon/egg wrap-yum.
After she headed off to school, I went to buy a pair of tweezers. Since we arrived, we have lost 2 pairs of tweezers...what is that about. Are we meant to have monobrows whilst living here? Today I bought a couple of pairs of brightly coloured ones so that they will hopefully be able to be found in any of our rooms/bags/buckets. Alison has taken care of our eyebrows this evening.
I thought that I would get loads done today but by the time I got home it was nearly 11am.
The house felt very strange when I came in, after being out. It felt sad.....bonkers, eh?
I decided to do an energy clearance, using my singing bowl and my Reiki symbols and it seemed to make a big change in the energy.
I then dusted and swept and before I knew it, it was 2pm and I was hungry. One egg sandwich later and I got a phonecall from Bill, which was fab. Apparently our plan, at home, covers calls to Canada and so we will be speaking often. Why did I not know that, in advance?
When Ali came home from school, I was very proud of myself for accomplishing several bill/banking tasks and the house was sparkling...apart from the bathrooms. That's tomorrows job.
This evening has been relaxing and happy. Ali and I walked to the Wine Store to get me a bottle and then we watched a really cute old-ish movie called 'she's all that'......lovely.
I'm not sure how long we will manage to leave off the heating but for now, we are managing, snuggling under a blanket.
Ali has gone off to bed and I'm watching another 'First kiss' movie.....Never been kissed but I may wimp out before too long.
So, not a huge amount of info. I did have something funny to report, from Ali's mouth but I have forgotten-oops.
Much love to all,
Lxxxxx
