geraldine helen hartman on january 29 2023 2 comments my travel moving update posted today at my poetic path happy week and stay warm my poetic path by way of an update from my earlier holiday moving post below we are still in transit right now but leaning towards alberta as being our new home province at least for now we had hoped to spend some time in mexico before making a firm decision but with all the upheaval and violence down south it didn t seem like the right place to be even for a visit my heart goes out to the people of mexico it s time for that awful cartel situation to end once and for all they ve apparently made big progress in columbia in that regard i hope it is mexico s turn next i will post more when we do get settled for now enjoying some new places people to meet and of course lots of snow love it stay warm and happy february view original post posted in reblogged from wordpress tagged leaving bc mexico mexico violence moving to alberta holiday greetings and leaving bc by geraldine helen hartman on december 12 2022 4 comments hope that you have had a wonderful year in 22 in spite of the craziness going on in the world around us i m convinced now that the best path to real peace and happiness going forward is to carve out a good personal space to dwell in and dwell on not just in the physical sense but mentally too when i get too fixated on the news and in particular some of the very bad decisions being made worldwide by so called leaders it s easy to get discouraged and depressed that will continue to be one of my biggest goals heading into 23 to dwell on what i can change and not nearly so much on what i can t there is still joy goodness beauty kindness integrity all the good things in abundance in this world and all that still gives me reason to have hope and to feel cautiously optimistic right now the packing goes on and on and on as we are preparing to leave bc after living in this province for about 15 years it s time for a big change and bc is not the province that it was even 10 years ago very expensive to live here now and climate change that continues to rear it s ugly head each summer with the wildfires raging for weeks at a time also no incentives or perks from the government to stay here just more ways to gouge us it seems i have some fond memories of bc but not enough to want to stay that s been the case for too many years now we are deciding between northern alberta and mexico to move to how is that for a range of options they both have their pluses and minuses time will tell we plan to check them both out thoroughly and take some time to get a feel for what seems like a good place to really settle down and be at home in the best sense of that term i wish all my blog readers past present and future a very merry christmas and much happiness in the new year here s hoping it s a memorable one for all of us for all the right reasons posted in articles of interest blog movie product book reviews tagged
