Greetings and Salutations,
Well I have been making steady progress. I have had various helpful hands to get me though different days along the way making this process easier. I am so super grateful for that. This is a lonely and overwhelming process by myself.
It is a journey to learn to be good with where I find myself in the moving process at that moment of anxious awareness. It isn't always where I want to be. Or where I thought I would be. Or working on the tasks in the order I thought I would. I am reminding myself to keep the faith and embrace learning to be in the here and now (and taking LOTS of deep breaths).
Yesterday I took down the curtains in the den and dining room. It really hit home that my house is no longer "my home" and I had to talk myself out of crying. Had no idea it would effect me like that until I looked up when I finished. Isn't it funny curtains were my tipping point? At least I now know the last thing to take down and pack up are the curtains in my bedroom. I won't be able to spend the night in my room after that. Just the thought of it makes me tear up. I really will miss my home.
I am blessed that I have found fantastic renters that have answered my prayers of someone to take care of my house. They really love it and are excited to move in. It is a gross understatement to say I feel relieved.
I have uncovered an unfortunate major road bump with my home owners insurance that I will have to sleep on and do further research to decide how to proceed. I love when the reality of the ways of the world clash with how you thought things work. Its always an interesting lesson when those two lines intersect. I will re-evaluate tomorrow after a few phone calls of fact finding and consultation for advice.
Completed off list:
(1) Renewed SC nursing licence
(2) Appt made for final house repairs (next Thursday)
(3) Secured AC maintenance schedule (1st one in April)
(4) Took care of banking issues
(5) Printed and organized Continuing Ed certificates (for nursing licence)
(6) Set appt for IRA/Roth updating and rollover paperwork (from old job)
(7) Scheduled POD pickup date (March 31st)
(8) Today I found a great home for my wicker childhood bedroom furniture. Major relief and guilt free
----and of course packing up more "stuff". POD is almost 1/2 way filled.
Here is to tomorrow being another productive day. I struck 8 items off my list of 14 (all the room I had on my dry erase board). More to add to the list but I'm getting there for sure. I think I can, I think I can.
Tootles :)
