Last August we held an event for virtual assistants in Vancouver British Columbia while house sitting in the area. Kathy had found our event online and registered. We’ve kept in touch over the past year by email and calls. Today we received this email from Kathy: Hi Sue & Joel, Just wanted to let you know how appreciative I [...] It’s confirmed. We will be house sitting in August in Ottawa Canada. We’re looking forward to seeing friends in Ottawa and maybe even heading over to Montreal to say hi to some friends. Then there’s other musician friends in Toronto. Should be fun. This house sitting thing is picking up. We’re leaving our current house sitting gig [...] Leaving Sacramento after our daughter’s wedding, Sue pointed out that this was the real beginning of our nomadic life. Up ’til now, everything has either been a dress rehearsal (our month in Vancouver) or a trip (to Montreal) or a temporary holding pattern until we had to go back. We always had to go back. This time, there’s [...] Especially proud of this one. I conceived the a capella intro two weeks ago, recorded it, and then got nothing for almost two weeks. I didn’t know what the song was supposed to be about, except in broad general terms. Then, instead of trying to describe the entirety of our travel in Canada, I chose a single [...] After an event we drove around Lac Davignon. The causeway across the lake, the trees along the shore, the houses reflecting in the rippled surface . . . it’s a memory I wanted to keep. We weren’t talking about anything of consequence so I dropped in three of my songs which almost fit within the 10 [...] Catching up on some more video from our Vancouver trip. Someone told us about this swinging scary bridge 150 above the floor of Lynn Canyon, so of course, we had to go see. Fiona was very brave. I don’t know what Sue was, but she seemed to like it. Here’s proof that I crossed it. Twice. Will I [...] “Snow? In October? Nonsense!”—Cristina Favreau Oh yeah? #gallery-1 { Wanted: window scraper Snow on the bare trees (find the Fleetwood Mac album ‘Bare Trees’; it’s magnificent) Good thing the firewood is covered Snow tops the evergreen hedge The last hangers on, braving the snow The front porch Snow on [...] Now that we’re here in Quebec for four weeks, we’re taking some time to reach out and .connect with virtual assistants in Canada. Cristina (we’re staying here with her and her family) has been a virtual assistant and VA coach. This morning I reconnected via Skype with Roslyn D’Souza, a virtual assistant in Toronto. Our virtual assistant [...] Note to self (#61)—Two weeks is not nearly enough time to cross two countries. Note to self (#62)—When you’re rushing across two countries in only two weeks you have, like, zero time to get to know the amazing, generous, wonderful people who’ve made it possible; not just possible, but heart-filling good. The drive through Montreal was a lot [...] Eric and Heather left for Italy this morning for two weeks. We’re house sitting for them while they’re gone. They have two mini dachshunds, Bob and Bentley, who need Fiona’s special care while Eric and Heather are away. Fiona’s very excited to be taking care of the two dogs, making sure they are fed and get played [...] |
