hi cyber-siblings since i presented my 'pickle' problem to the list a while back i felt i'd best let you all have an update in case the suspense was causing too much stress i'm grateful for all the responses and encouragement from my cyber-siblings after mulling over all of it and turning over a few rocks here i have come to the conclusion that the Great White North is to be the beneficiary of my presence in the short term at least so i'll be pursuing my life changes from my sister's headquarters in Almonte Ontario which forms the western end of Canada's 'silicon valley' which terminates its eastern end at Ottawa, the nation's capital so you sibs in the Ottawa Valley, be on guard! i may actually get to meet a real parkie at last! i've decided to head for my sister's home town because i hear 'family' calling me up to this year i thought my family consisted of my sister trish, my niece jillian, and me but, through the wonders of the internet, and after a period of 20 years i've discovered four long lost nieces and nephews [niblings] and their offspring [niblets] and various spouses [spice] this happy finding is tempered by the discovery that our long lost older sister died a couple of years ago in addition, i have made preliminary contact with a long lost daughter whom i haven't seen for 30 years as well as trish's long lost son whom she hasn't seen in 25 years by some odd coincidence all of these niblings are in toronto the city of both my birth and the origin of this list my 'cyber-family' and my 'sanguine-family' all in t.o. ?? yikes maybe this bit of background gives some added perspective as to why discovering this cyber 'family' has been so important to me so for the next little while i won't be able to post as much since i'm getting ready to make the big move out of bermuda [probably three weeks or so] last call for visitors!
