April draws to a close. Caiti has completed her first year at UBC. She came home on Friday night and will stay until Tuesday or so. She is picking up the van and gathering her summer clothes etc. Darcy helped her and James move into the house. She also got her careaide attendant job as well as assistant store manager for Jacob Jr. So will be juggling 2 jobs over the summer to save for school as well as to enjoy an okanagan summer. It will a little hectic with the shifts at the carehome but for the hourly wage she will be receiving, she won't be complaining at all.
So...yesterday we ran a few errands (like getting her to the dentist) and went for sushi lunch. The weather was beautiful and we also went down to the Annacis/Queensborough outlet centre where its almost as good as going to the USA. The Guess store is identical to the one in Tulalip and in Cdn prices!
Looks like another sunny day today so we have to do a few more things before she leaves. Independance is a beautiful thing and we have to let it happen. Slowly I am warming up to the idea of having an empty nest...in a positive way!
It must be nice to have Caiti home for a few days. I saw her dashing out last night as I walked by with the dog!
