Daily Notes

I sold some more NVDA in my ROTH (33 shares at $1,145.01 each for a total of $37,784.26), so with the $14,000 Cash I already had in the account, I now have a little over $50,000 US available as well for future needs.

I had a great nap and meditation this afternoon. My comfy bed and the nice cool air coming in from my window helps, I think. I woke up with two “Actionable Thoughts”, which were:

  • When you are meditating think of yourself in a cocoon. You are safe and secure and the “Universe” is dealing with everything outside of it, and you will find that all your problems have resolved themselves when you emerge.
  • Upon rising, your #1 task of the day should be, “What will bring me the most pleasure today”.

We are having problems getting money from our US Bank Accounts into Canadian Bank Accounts in order to pay for the mortgage for our new home. Rather than get “too stressed out” about it, my wife did a quick 108 second meditation and visualization (see above) to put ourselves in a positive frame of mind…

We needed to print out a two page form to start the process rolling. We don’t have a printer, but Amanda’s real estate office offered to print it out, so Katie and I drove there this afternoon to pick it up. As a side note, I had problems providing Jodie (the real estate agent who will be handling our transactions while Amanda is away) with a valid identification via an app and my passport, but Scott (who showed us the Wayfair house) was at the office and helped me out.

We were able to “initiate” the transfer of funds from our US bank account to our CDN bank account today. Let’s hope that everything is in place soon so that we can close on this mortgage issue once and for all! It should go out tomorrow morning.

Now that they money is “hopefully” on the way, my wife wanted to take a drive. Katie came with us, but soon developed a headache, and Bobby opted to stay at home. First we went to see the property we almost bought at 3511 Burns Road. We then drove to Goose Spit to see the wharf and bay, and then home.

On the drive home we stopped off at the “Courtenay Country Market” at 5352 N Island Hwy. My wife picked up some Borscht (see photo to the right). I got a bag of ketchup chips (which I hadn’t had in a while, and Katie hated). There were two older ladies minding the cash register area. One was scanning the joint looking for shop lifters, and the other was upset that I dinged the bell on the counter for her assistance.

This evening my wife and I watched this W5 Episode about a house in Hampton, NS which is indispute by two owners.
