This Year So Far



Trying to catch up on 9 months of events seems a little challenging, but since it is the busiest time of the year for us I thought it would be a good idea to start right now.





We are in the middle of preparing to leave for the summer, with all the small easy to forget but terribly important jobs to do, like booking our ferry out, mailing our bills...and of course it is the busiest time at school too. We have sports day, three different awards days, grad, a concert, three feasts, and the children's cultural concert. Report cards are due, the classrooms need to be cleaned out, supplies for next year need to be ordered, the house has to be cleaned, they are installing baseboard heaters in our house this week, and I am trying to finish off Angelica's button blanket. And I have to fly out to go to court with Jackie in themiddle of all of this.





But I really want to start a blog.





Moving here was a good idea, most of the time. We really had no choice, as Redstone was sinking and we didn't want to sink with it. Bella Bella was our first choice, the only job Tom applied for, and we were offered it the next day so it seemed like it was meant to be.





The move was difficult, who knew that you couldn't move from Redstone to Bella Coola to Bella Bella, you had to go the other way. Redstone, Vancouver, Bella Bella. But we managed. More or less with all of our belongings. We drove up after them with the two cats and the dog.
