Wow. For a Monday, it was quite a day. Actually, it wasn?t much of a day until I got home. Class was about the same as always with a minor annoyance in the afternoon but nothing too serious. But then I came home, expecting to crawl into the tub and relax, when I opened the mailbox and found a letter from my dad.
For those of you who may not be aware of this, my dad lives out in Edmonton Alberta which is of course where I was born. My mom and my dad split up when I was a kid and in 1985, me and mom moved here to Moncton. I?ve since been in touch with my dad on and off and have gone out to see him a few times. In fact, me and Tamara were planning on going to visit him this September. But now, plans may change.
Turns out, my dad wants to move to NB. After having lived in Edmonton for almost 55 years, he decided for some reason, that he wants to haul his ass to this side of the country and basically live out the rest of his days down here. Talk about surprise the hell out of me.
It?s basically thrown me for quite a loop as this is something I never expected. It boils down to the fact that dad wants to move here, live with me and Tamara for a little while, then he?ll get his own place here in town and live here. VERY weird to be thinking about this kind of thing.
So now I am kind of wondering what I really want to do and have sort of decided to mull it over for the next day or two even though I already know what I want to do, but I do want to take a day or so to really make sure it?s what I absolutely want, and then let him know.
Wow. Talk about a huge surprise.
