At 8:30 this morning a horde of packers will arrive to wrap and pack our house all up.
Okay, well maybe not a horde, but 3 for sure — and amidst that chaos, I shall remember to live within the calm. To not give into the angst and chaos. To not fall into the trap of believing, now is forever and if I don’t get it my way, right now, the world will come to a screeching, crashing, agonizing halt!
Whew! That feels better.
Calm now.
I shall continue on with my day — or rather, the next 3 days as once the packing is over, tomorrow the movers arrive to put it all in their truck and take it away to storage.
As selling this house happened way quicker than we anticipated, last night was our last night in this house. The lovely and loving home that has sheltered and nurtured us for the past 9 years.
I am grateful.
For this home. The memories we created. The good times we shared. The love that grew beneath its roof.
I am grateful.
And now, to breathe again and step back into the chaos of moving dayz!
See you on the other side!
Good luck on the move. We are on the same trajectory. My house just sold. Fast. It’s in escrow with a 15 day closing which means I have to be out of the house the day after Christmas. Ye Gads! How will I do that? I don’t even have a place to go to. Don’t even know what city I want to move to! I will seek that calm place….or else.

What a gift to be aware that each moment is exactly that, a moment, and you are NOT responsible for tomorrow because it doesn’t exist…. you can only be present in the NOW! And just think, part of your home, deck and flowers will go with you and part of your essence will remain… and all is in the flow! You’re on my heart during this time of stretching and growth!

Thank you Steve. I love how you frame the ‘part of…’ this home that stays and comes with us. So true — and in that space, new growth has room to appear and letting go has space to breathe freely. ❤

Sending calming vibes your way Louise! I recall someone saying to me that the energy behind anxiety and excitement is just the same. When we shift our thinking, we can transform it. MAy you wake up in your new home with a smile on your face 💛

That feels so balanced and freeing Val — to know that the energy is just the same, it’s our capacity to shift and transform that creates balance — and smiles! 🙂 Thanks my friend.
