Bonnieville is only I think an hour and a half from me...that's cool!
And I have family that live in Cold Lake, too.
Anyhow, I know it's hard to make a big move like that, especially when it sounds like you just did! But, Alberta is a nice place to live, and depending on WHERE in Saskatchewan you are, you may find it's not as expensive as you think. Gas and food is cheaper here than it is where my parents live (small town SK). Rent is probably higher, unless you live in a city right now, then you'll find it is cheaper probably. Our school system is better (believe me, I went to school in both AB and SK...AB is definitely better).
Alberta is booming right now and there is lots of work...I don't know if you want to work, but it's SO easy for women (even those that have been SAHM's for years) to find work right now if you're willing to work service industry jobs - especially fast food restaurants. They're closing them down and closing early because they don't have the staff to fill them, all because everyone's heading to the big jobs where they can make the "real" money. But, I know at my McD's, if you're older and willing to work, you'll make more than the store's minimum wage (which is higher than the province's minimum wage). These places are literally CRYING for people to come work for them!
Anyhow, just wanted to pipe in that Alberta's not that bad...and I hope that you like Bonnieville...I've only been there a couple times, usually just passing through.
