Stopped by Bings for breakfast and swung by Town Hall to make an appointment with the mayor regarding my ongoing liaison duties, and then went wandering a bit.

Then I visited Blings ‘N Things.  I am trying to invade my own life, which is …interesting….  and it involves first of all deciding where to move.  That part is iffy; the rents in Ontario seem a lot more reasonable than any of the ones in Edmonton, and I’ll be perfectly honest when I say that I DON’T want to move back to Edmonton.  So, while looking, I may as well window shop/buy stuff for when I do find a place.

So far, I’m just window shopping, but it does give me things to daydream about while I work on quitting smoking and get a budget going.

I dropped by Erin Babcock’s office today.  She is the MLA for Stony Plain.  She wasn’t in today, but I did talk to her assistant about what kind of social programs might be available in Stony Plain, and I expressed my concerns regarding water quality in Alberta and mental health with her.

She suggested that I contact the FCSS, or Family and Community Support Services in town, which I actually used to volunteer for briefly when I was in High School for help getting established as a bonafide person.

I actually plan to give them a call after I give myself a bit of a lunch break.

After I stopped by the MLA’s office, I went for a bit of a walk and looked at one of the apartments that are available for rent; I’ll have to call and find out what they’re asking for and if they take pets.

I also decided while on my walk to make my Instagram account public.
