They’re Still Surfing
Well, it looks like Couch Surfing was the answer my daughter and her friend were looking for. They are in Calgary, neither of them have any money, they just got jobs (no pay yet) and have no place to live! Good planning, right? After Jon suggested couch surfing, they signed up on the site and found a place to stay for 2 nights and now they are at the second place. Apparently it’s a bunch of young guys sharing a big house together. They have other surfers there as well, and Alison and Janessa are busy making tacos for everyone for dinner right now:-) Alison starts training at her new job on Wednesday, and then she starts working full time a week after that. Who knows how long it’s going to take them to save enough for a month’s rent plus damage deposit to get their own place. Hope they can find enough places to surf till then. I guess it’s an adventure anyway. She sent me a text message today saying “OMG Mom, I have to start eating some veggies”
My guess is that most meals have been consisting of peanut butter on toast or ramen noodles….oh, I remember those days:-)

I'm Helen. I'm a mom of two, wife to my sweetie and I work from home as a telephone advice nurse. 'Triage' is from a french word meaning 'to sort'.
In nursing, it means to determine the level of urgency of care needed- so I'm a sorter of sorts:-)
In my free time, I like to bake and do home projects, like painting (walls, not pictures) My current passion is making handmade soaps and other bath and body goodies.
