Thoughts on Moving

  1. I’ve never lived in one place longer than 5 years. ; I like moving for some sick and twisted reason…well not sick and twisted, it just feels normal to me.
  2. The first things I looked up in my new town were grocery stores and Zumba. ; The two things that make me happiest. ; 533349_10151614676075375_868230374_23697431_1258187570_n
  3. My late night reading had been taking up with late night list making. ; I helps me be organized and enjoy the fun before moving.
  4. I’m most worried how Peanut and Leo will adjust to our new area. ; They’re my little fluff balls and are confused when we go on vacation let alone moving completely. ; I think they’ll snuggle through it.IMG_0418
  5. My calendar has exploded with busy days and all I want to do is sleep and spend time with friends. ; It’s almost worth it to pay some to pack, clean and move it all. ; In fact that sounds like an idea.

Last Week’s Goals

  • Pack light. ;I’m so happy I packed light because the women I took packed a month of clothing for a weekend. ; Even better I loved the outfits I took with me and the variety. ; I may be getting the hang of packing super-light. ;
  • Plan fitness fun. I enjoyed the early week workouts and walked around this weekend. ; It prevented the stress of packing gym shoes and workout clothes and trying to fit a workout in a packed schedule. ;
  • Pack a lunch. ;I was so happy to have snacks and lunch with me. ; The only thing between home and the conference was Dunkin Donuts. ; Uh nope. ; So instead I ate my snack and was happy. ;
  • Savor sweets. ; My favorite health food store in town I visited this weekend. ; Fantastic raw chocolate sweets I could not resist. ; And I enjoyed every bite. ;
  • Breathe. Uh decisions were made earlier than I thought so I freaked out for a bit and then had great news. ; Now I need to breathe through the transition.

This Week’s Goals

  • Big To-Do List. ;How else would this girl pack to move to a new house and community…by list only. ; I
  • Party planning. I have Groupons to use; dinners to eat with friends; and our own church farewell picnic to plan. Add that to the list.
  • Closet purge This time for Hunni. #1 on my list is going packing all but the mix & match needed and getting rid of the “well maybe” size & style of clothes we all hold on to.
  • Letter writing campaign. For me a note to say you are cared for and prayed for are some of the best memories. I have to start writing now.

  • BREATHE!!!I need to remind myself daily there are 6 weeks until we move not just 6 weekends.
