Moving back with the folks + recent scuffles
8 years ago
General
Heyo,
So a few things have been going on lately but I wanted to start with the most pressing one first: a few days ago I got an email from my landlord saying they plan on selling the house we rent from in November. Given that this is Vancouver- one of the most expensive places to live in Canada- and the fact that this place was a steal as it is, I think the only real course of action is to move back in with my folks for the time being instead of raising expenses more. At least not while my backlog is as flooded as it is. Now this is less distressing and more depressing. I spent a lot, went through a lot of stress and got racked with pretty severe homesickness getting here. However, this isn't any kind of desperate announcement. I'll only have to pay for a flight back to Ontario instead of having to make it a round trip and I'll have a big financial burden off my back. So despite the disappointment I will have some time to reevaluate myself, save some money, get my backlog cleared and so on and so forth. I originally thought I'd have the time and energy to do that after I moved out but I suppose that's rent and hindsight for you.
That said, paying for the flight isn't too much of an issue anymore since I already have a little more than it costs for a flight there saved up. I'll just have to pay for rent and food and all that until I go back to my folks in August.
OKAY, sooo the other thing. It may have come to some people's attention that there was a recent scuffle over one of my more recent posts. I just wanted to make it clear that everything has been resolved and that there's no more bad blood between anybody. I can't and won't name anybody specific but those of you who've seen will know what I'm talking about and those of you who haven't can rest assured that what happened has been resolved now.

As for the fight, I have no idea what you're talking about, but I'm glad things worked out for the best.
