So… I just connected this blog to my different accounts on the internet we’ll see how that works for me.

8 Days left to the next move (from Vancouver Island to The Mainland.) Admittedly not as big a move as from Beijing to the Island was, but it is about time wee get our own place. My children and I are sitting inside the house again, even though it’s a beautiful day. The reason: when we went out to the back yard here the neighbours decided that was the best time to drain their kiddy swimming pools.(Not last night or in the evening) So the entire back yard is flooded with this Algae-filled guck that is not too pleasant to smell. a couple of the neighbouring kids slipped around in it and got soaked….

So we promised that we’d take them around the corner to the park in a bit. (After Laundry was finished).

How does this compare to Beijing? Well the Algae filled back yard isn’t much different, but the fact that it came from a swimming pool some kids played in for a month, while there it’s just from someone (Not necessarily a kid) just squatting and taking a dump in front of the slide or next to the bouncy horses….. Plus the air is nicer, so we can go to the park in a few without the kids developing a bad cough from it.

I have to go to the mainland on Monday to register the kids at their school. unfortunately the funds we have are not enough for the whole family to join me. And after that I’m going to do some leg work for job hunting, as the online applications have not yielded any results yet.

Cheers
