It has now been a month that I moved from my place in Glendale. It feels so long ago. But then again, major change always seems to affect time like that. It is now September 1 and I am on my way to Edmonton. I have no regrets of my decision and surprisingly have not been homesick at all. I guess I just have not been gone long enough to miss it.

For the past month (August) I lived with my Mom in Claremont. It took a bit of adjustment, but in many respects my life there was better than it had been. Mom and I frequently went on morning walks and stopped for coffee. And we lived and ate meals like a family most of the time. I kept to my regular routine of yoga and often went swimming. I also had a great place to work and had nothing lacking.

Now feeling liberated of material possessions, I am ready to travel! I am currently en route to Edmonton and am accumulating many tales to tell.
