My life is a roller coaster lately
Since I last wrote here I've started a new business, which is off to an expected slow yet steady start; so far so good
Watched my son get his associates degree, and helped him plan his future path to success. It ends with me being able to say, "My son the Doctor...." How cool is that? I can't wait to rub that in some relatives faces who told me my kid would be shit because I dared be a single mom. My kid is doing better then any of theirs! Not to gloat or anything ;o) LOL
And now the big one for us personally. We're moving in January!
Gulp! That's the first time I've actually said our intentions to anyone besides immediate family. lol Makes it seem more real somehow.
My dad has gotten a lot worse lately, fast. It's becoming too much for me to keep driving back and forth out there, and he really needs someone there at night now. Plus he asked, and that's HUGE! My father never asks for anything. He's old school; the parents provide everything, are always the wiser, etc.
He bought a new house last year, and I think he was already thinking of this because the house he bought has a complete apartment downstairs. He made me help him remodel his kitchen cuz he said I was inheriting the house so it should be the way I want it. I figured it made sense since I'm the only one who actually cooks in it! LOL Unless you count microwave meals....Yuck!
Anyways the plan is to move in with him in January (Why did he have to ask in the dead of winter? LOL) and slowly clean this place out, and fix it up to rent out.
So the bad news is we'll have less privacy, the good news is we have an entire huge beautiful new house to take pics in!
We'll make it work, I'm sure.
I think the move itself will do wonders for me. There is nothing like looking at every item you own, and determining what really matters to you. I think it will be cathartic and am looking forward to a very good and deep de-cluttering of both the stuff, and the brain
We've been here over 14 years now, raised two babies here; we've accumulated a lot of crap! lol
Looking forward to the future.........
