There's a first time for everything....

As you can see from my country, I'm Canadian. That is to say, I live and work in Canada....for now. In April of 2008 my daughter and I will be moving to Viareggio, LU, Italy to be with my 'husband'. I use the term in quotes since we're not married, but having a child together makes 'boyfriend' or 'girlfriend' seem somewhat inadequate. Besides, I feel like I have to qualify the exact definition of the relationship whenever I say 'boyfriend, but he's Ada's daddy....etc etc etc' so the quotes will do for now.

I hope to use this blog as a tool to keep in touch with family and friends instead of having to email everyone since I invariably forget someone and then spend the next day or so promising myself to create a master distribution group of everyone who wants updates on my life...then never get around to it until the next time that I get an email from someone who has had an email forwarded to them from someone fortunate enough to be on the original email...it's a vicious cycle really....

Anyways, I wanted to write my very first post and as for how long this lasts, I guess you'll have to check this out every now and then to see!
