Come visit me in Vancouver. We can eat sushi all night long! I know what you mean by missing home. I moved across the country for my husband that passed away and it was SO hard to do. Not to mention I moved to a town way up north by the polar bears in Canada. The only store was a Walmart. It was so hard to be alone.
Thank god we have the internet right? This is one of the best ways we get to communicate with loved ones, and people we miss. Kudos to you for writing your feelings
Wow Samantha Mae, we have so much in common. I moved to CA from MI to pursue my ex-husband’s career in entertainment. Now I someone to visit in Canada opposed to crossing the Ambassador Bridge from Detroit to just hang out. Sushi for everyone! BTW, do you go by “Sam”?
Hi Melissa,
Yes I go by Sam
And yes you definitely have someone to visit in Canada. Vancouver has the most sushi and Starbucks per capita than anywhere else in the world (my idea of heaven).
I read your other post about being fired today. Pardon my french but that’s bullsh*t. They had no right. I work in a law firm and I think you should go see an employment lawyer. Did they give you severance pay too? They better have. I’m with you about keeping the twins in preschool. It’s so important. My daughter was in last year but I had to keep her out this year due to money issues. She’s starting K this september and I’m happy she’ll be socializing again.
I hope you have a wonderful Friday night Melissa (or Mel?) and I’ll talk to you soon!
Sam
