Before you read what I write. Read who I am.

Originally from Alberta and in the last number of years having been living in Vancouver, British Columbia. We are now living in Woolwich, London where we inhabit a wonderful little 2 floor flat in the Royal Arsenal. The family has grown over the years from being just my wife and I to the family of four we are now. My work has brought us to London for the next two years where for the first time in ages we will live in the same house for more than a birthday. The experience is written below from then till now. With a view of the Thames from our windows and boat ride to work the new life begins.

Why oh Why Delilah.....

OK It's been over a month since my last post. What's gone on? Lots.

JnR (the folks we lived with) turned out to be the biggest losers I ever came across. They smoke so much pot and are such burnouts I don't know why we couldn't see it before we moved in. Watching them go about their lives makes me shudder, the thought of them having anything to do with me any longer makes me kinda sick.

However we have now moved to our own place. This is the first time in Two years we have lived alone and the first time in Seb's life that we have not had someone else around. It's really nice.

The apartment we got is much bigger than we thought and we are constantly suprised by how much space there is. We moved in on Friday and on Monday I left for Kelowna. I'm there now but flying to Edmonton in a few hours... Then to Calgary... Then to Winnipeg.... then home on the 27th of July. 3 weeks away from this new house... with most of the stuff left packed. We had intended to unpack everything but it just couldn't happen.

Kate and Seb are coming to Edmonton and Calgary with me and I am quite looking forward to the trip. We get to see all our family and we also get to pawn the kid off for a few hours here and there and have some time to ourselves.

Life otherwise has been hard as usual. Low money, no money but some days are really good. We rented a little Toyota Yaris for a few days around our move and have decided that we really like it. It's fun and there is more storage than you can even find, I kept touching areas and the panel would flip up and there is a storage spot. It's neat.

This Job with HSBC is coming to a close now and I need to find something else to do. I don't know what to go on to but I would really like to find something full-time. School was my main option but we can't do it either. Kate thinks she might get a startbucks job and let me be unemployed for a few months to take care of Seb and I think that this is a wonderful idea. It would give me time to hang out with the boy and get to know him better, and vice-versa.

All in all there is lots going on.
