I'm still really enjoying living in the van and the dogs are getting so playful, just like puppies again. They sleep really good too. I was even awake before them this morning at 8am lol. Im sticking around Nova Scotia eastern shore right now to make sure everything is working good and safe for me to head west. This is where I'm from so I know ppl that can help with getting things done on my budget which really helps. Im still selling everything I can't use and that's keeping me going right now. The first month is the hardest when your starting from nothing. I'm still learning what I absolutely need and what I can do without. My layout isn't working again so I need to rearrange and try again. I have empty spaces but there are things I still need so they won't be empty for long. My kids are very supportive and excited for me. They are thinking they want to come to so we will see how things progress. There is about a month and a half before I head out for then to decide. Even if they don't come with me they are talking about getting another vehicle they can live in. I think my excitement is rubbing off lol.

Post in the Captains' Logs forum (which should be Captain's lol) when you set out / leave! Would love to follow along!

Actually Captains' logs is technically correct. Captain's is similiar to it's - an abbreviation of it is!

Captains' is possessive.

It has only been in the past couple of decades that the dumbing down of the North American english language that has resulted in the misuse of the apostrophe! Oh and the dropping of the i in similiar...sigh!

 

[CautionToTheWind]

An individual possessive or group possessive?

[don't like to derail a topic but will say] I went to editing school. There are singular and plural nouns. To me, it looks funny because there are singular/individual postings in the forum. So either way works. Just my eyes hurt, that's all.

captain's log - singular
captains' log - plural
