I liked the questions this week, so joining up with the Tuesday 4 gang to answer a few how? questions on this beautiful March morning. (They’re all beautiful, because every day is a step closer to spring.)
1. How did you end up in the place where you are living?
My family moved from Saskatchewan to British Columbia when I was about 13-years-old. It broke my heart and I always longed to return to this land that was my heart’s home. Fast forward fifty-plus years, and my dream came true when my husband and I decided to make the move back to my home town. Not everyone understood the attraction of the prairie province over B.C., but those who know, know. Once a prairie girl, always a prairie girl.
2. How did you end up with the job you have/had?
I’m retired from my corporate career, so it to careful planning and hard work to get here! I went back to school when my youngest started first grade and studied computer systems, operations and management. I was a computer programmer turned business analyst for 25 years, (mostly) loved the work I did, but was grateful to be able to retire early.
3. How do you end up with your life partner?
We lived in the same city and our boys were the same age so we were aware of one another. When life took a turn for both of us and we were both partner-less, we connected at Bible study and the rest is history.
Here’s a photo of us taken at Butchart Gardens on our honeymoon twenty-seven years ago. Crazy kids. 😊
4. How did your weekend go and how is the week ahead looking?
I was under the weather, so the weekend was slow. This week, I’m raring to go and have a couple of seasonal projects. Methinks spring fever is starting to kick in.
This was a fun post, taking me down a few old memory lanes.
