Big Change

 Today's song is: Change by Taylor

The first time we came to Canada on Thavorn's PR we stayed in a AirBnB for 6 months. We lived downtown and we could walk to everything and did not need a car. We quite enjoyed it!

At the end of that stay my son Jordan and his GF suggested we look for a house together to share. I thought, good all around, as I could help them with a mortgage. We found a beautiful house on 2 acres out in the country with 6 bedrooms, 4 car garage, etc.

When we arrived back in Canada we moved in on March 2nd, 2020, just over 2 years ago. Apart from continual construction, things went pretty well and I invested in a treadmill and a new motorcycle, as well as a car.

However, covid struck and we had online schooling for the first year and a heavy dose of cabin fever, but things were okay, not ideal, but what the heck, we were helping my son out.

However, covid was not kind to their relationship and they are splitting and we move out on May 1st. Back to my original plan, we are renting a luxury 2 bedroom, 2 bath, stacked townhouse in Barrhaven. Hooray, we can now walk to most things and drive to everywhere else in 5 mins or less. Jaidan will probably change schools in September but that is still to be decided.

Change has never really bothered me and it is through change that we grow. I had to sell my motorcycle as we will not have a garage. I am still undecided on selling the treadmill, but it may not be needed as we will be walking a lot more.

There will certainly be a lot more kids on the street for Jaidan to disvover new friends.

Thankfully, I am a minimalist and the move will be easy! My son moves out the same day so this time around we will share a truck. :-)
