Ya. You are right. She lived and worked in Dubai for a year and a half. Maybe its more for me. We haven't had a lot of moments that we share together. I also feel somewhat guilty for taking her away from her parents. It gives them the piece of mind that we are leaving together.

They are off to Batangas this weekend. I think her family know that it may be a few years before we can get back for a good long vacation.
Yeah, I want to experience landing with my guy too.. the first moments off the plane. But I can't even afford HIS ticket let alone my own.. so I will be waiting on the other side of the glass. I have big decisions to make. Embarrassing sign? Balloons? A Dancing Bear? Flowers?

You can never go wrong with a dancing bear, :) but if need a dancing mascot on a budget, I hear Fin, the Canucks dancing Orca mascot is looking for work too ;)

I was hoping for a PPR too damn it! No love from Jason Kenney, maybe he didn't like my comment on his FB page? Would explain the black helicopters circling the house the last couple of days :)

I hear Jeep Guy is available for angry email tutelage. You should really have PPR by now! I would check with your MP to make sure they didn't screw up your email address.
