Happier than happy…is that possible?
I am in my new place! It’s a beautiful two story home with no ghosts attached to it. No tears, all laughter!
Last week, Lester’s daughter Ashley helped move nearly ALL the big furniture in. For a little thing, that girl can move some stuff and inspire others around her to get shit done.
On the other days, I had Lester and Kara’s boyfriend, Patrick moving in the boxes.
This weekend a few skydiving friends came and moved the remaining stuff out. The garage was packed full of stuff I didn’t need anymore and was having hauled off.
This weekend we spent in the new house, slowly going through and unpacking the essentials.
At one point this weekend I had one of those awesome and amazing moments where I looked around and said, “this is where I live now…and I finally feel right about it!”
I stood there looking over the landing from the second floor down at the living room where my kids were watching TV and laughing at each other. I turned around and saw my daughter in her room unpacking and making her space her own. In my room, my boyfriend napped sideways across the bed. This is my life now, and it is so beyond good that I wonder what I did right to deserve such happiness after letting go of something that I loved so much.
Makes me wonder if I loved it or I just wanted to hold on to it because I didn’t want to fail. Probably a little of both. Just another lesson that I will take with me into the future.
For as much stuff that I had, most of it is already unpacked. The silverware was FINALLY located last night!
