Im sorry Michelle gave up on us due to crocodiles. Because we are probably mostly misfits, she might fit in. But, now that my first year living full time here is over, I must say it has been a challenge. Change is the challenge. Too much, over too short a time, can get you. Maybe she has never considered what she can't live without because she hasn't had to. The full emersion year has told me I like aquafit at the pool better than sandflies that bite me on the beach...still love to look at it from the house or Canucks. You can have granite, stainless, and a garbage disposal, but the cottage cheese is really what you thought was going to be sour cream once you got it home. It's to laugh...and cry...and laugh again. Just make sure to end up laughing. Maybe she would like St. Johns.
