Packing up.. moving on out!

After about a decade 'down on the coast' and with a wonderful addition to our family unit, J and Me are heading with Bean up to Kelowna. Today. The apartment is nearly packed and the vehicles are almost here..

loading up today.. heading up tomorrow.

And then life changes dramatically.

I don't see this as giving up a lot.. Vancouver has grown tiresome and irksome to me. The majority of people (aside from a few small pockets) are concerned with nothing but financial gains. Now, I can't really begrudge them.. life in Vangroovey costs a TON. But, I'm not tied to Van so.. I can leave if I want. And I want Bean to have a better life.

Better because Waldorf costs 10,000$ less in Kelowna than it does in Vancouver
Better because our general monthly cost of living is being cut by more than half off!
Better because it's a gorgeous area that has a wealth of activities.. just not things like Science World, The Aquarium, and Tinseltown, and the Art Gallery. So, rather than being stuck with specific buildings, she'll have to explore different places through various activities. And that's what I want for my girl.

Oh, and better because I can put more attention towards my Project through more affordable work spaces (that'll obviously include production studio spaces for bodypainting, canvass work, printing, and general artistic creationisms.

It's cheaper up there. Sure there's less work for me up there.. but we don't need a LOT just.. to be able to do more than we can here.

So, here's to a surreal weekend ending a seriously deranged decade.
