It feels like I have been so busy, but what I've really been doing is catching up with myself.
Everything age related has been configured, and all is well in the financial phase of my world.
So...after almost 4 years after I started out with nothing, living on a shoestring budget, doing without or making do, I have been treating myself to some things I couldn't before. I got a new set of sheets, a couple of new pillows, some art supplies, a new cat tree for the boys...just a few little nice things we wanted instead of needed.
I have gone through my closet, and donated a lot of clothes that I can not or will not ever wear again. I put everything that is too big for me now, or stained or ripped in any way, into the rag bag, to be made into rugs this winter.
And...I am putting in a transfer to move to the complex in the town where my sister and son live, about 15 mins away from here.
I was smiling to myself as I made a cup of coffee, feeling grateful for where I was, when a thought came to me, "you are home." My first thought was about moving, but immediately realized that it didn't matter which "place" I was in. It is where I am with my soul that makes it home.
I needed to be here, where I am now, I had to be here on my own, pretty alone, to figure some things out. After lots of thinking, and following my gut, and time, I'm feeling like it is ok for me to go back there now. It was my hometown for over 25 years...I am really looking forward to it.
Next I will be going through my dressers, and I foresee a large addition to my junk jar, and more donations going out the door, The shelf in my closet is another goal.
I've been organizing, so that my upcoming move will be smooth and efficient.
That's it for now. My new tablet came today, and I have 3 - 4 projects I'm working on, so
Play Nice! xxoo
