I'm not myself!

I'm bored with ranting so although I do have topics to rant about I'll keep them for another time.

There is something funny I realised this week. The time in the UAE made me really chatty. I used to be such a reserved and shy person, unable to talk to strangers and always feeling awkward. Now , I'm still reserved in a sense that I won't start up a conversation with a stranger or even a neighbour but when an unsuspecting soul initiates a polite exchange, beware! I just feel the need to keep going, as if not adding a sentence after theirs would somehow be impolite. I'm sure I freak people out. I need to shut up! LOL

Moving again and again...

We've moved into the temporary flat. I still need to go back to clean and get some last bits and pieces but at least I'm not in someone else's home anymore. Of course moving means sleepless nights until Saboodlette gets used to the new place but it's all good. We have a big park literally across the street with playground for children paddling pool included - perfect as it's supposed to get over 30C this week. The only issue is sockets - in the living room the only socket that fits the adaptor plugs are TV socket so no TV while the laptop is on. Oh well, there is nothing to watch anyway, LOL. The bed is tiny, how on earth two people are supposed to sleep comfortably in this space is beyond me, it's too small for me and Saboodlette.

In two months we're moving again, this time for longer, inshallah.

I don't know, I've never felt so much like an alien before, in any country. I'm used to being a foreigner, I embrace it, even but here I feel alien. It's weird. People are nice and friendly but not overwhelming (best thing about Canada) weather is decent enough, I have a place to live, money to buy what I need, things to do enough not to be bored and still... We'll see.
