Why My Mom is Moving in with Me

So my mom just sold her house. Which means that moving vans will soon be arriving on my doorstep!

I thought I’d take today and give you all a bit of a personal update into my life.

First, a story from yesterday. My daughter Katie and I have been invited to speak at the Association of Christian Women in Music and Media meeting in Burlington, about 3 hours from where I live–but on the other side of Toronto. Anyone who lives in Ontario will know the significance of that last bit. It means that if you don’t time your drive exactly right, you will end up sitting on the highway, really frustrated with the traffic.

So we left 7 hours early, shopped in Ikea for a while, hung out at a bookstore, had some food, and then went to the event. Only to find out that I got the dates wrong, and it’s actually today. We turned around and drove home (through rush hour) and now have to do it all again today!

Katie made a video about it. I’ll put it up on Facebook this weekend.
