My work for the day is FINALLY done. I am exhausted. My head is full of numbers and my soul is full of gratitude. My heart if halfway between overjoyed and heavy. This move is going to happen.
On a day when one of the most unhappy women I have ever known posted a photo of me that she probably thought would piss me off I have the date for my trip to go to Florida and rent my apartment planned, all the money is lined up to do it, the date is set and my POD reserved to move. I gotta tell you, it's kinda scary. Still, it's the right thing for me. Someone asked me the other day what the worst case scenario is; overall, it would be staying in Greensboro - I guess. Second worst case scenario? Living in Florida close to the beach, knowing no one, and picking up tar balls every day. That is one of my two dreams come true (the living in Florida part). All in all that's not bad. And I bet doing that I could meet some people interested in keeping the environment protected, at least. Who knows? That would help more dreams come true....
I want to continue to remember to turn away hate and wrath and passive aggression with love and understanding - and a sense of humor about myself. I also hope that I meet some people with values that are a bit closer to mine than what I have found here. Oh UuuuuuNIVERSE - here's my order. Fulfill that, please. Completion date must be by August 18th, 2010. Thanks.

ReplyDeleteAs it has been written, so shall it be done!
So Deb, go out there and show us (as well as yourself) that you are a "CAN DO" gal! It'll all happen as you wish it to, just set your mind to it - one day at a time! Youse can do it!
Trust me :-)
When you arrive, could you please stand at the ocean edge and give out a big HAYHELLO to my gorgeous blue waters! I miss the ocean terribly. Best of Luck with your move and do keep us updated. Tazzy
ReplyDeleteRob - it SHALL be done. Who am I to disobey the Universe? LOL
ReplyDeleteAnd Taz, my dear soul sister, you can trust that the very first thing I will be doing is standing on the beach - whether it be 4 AM or 4 PM - staring out onto the horizon shedding a tear in gratitude for the kindnesses and hard work on my behalf that got me there. In the midst of those tears you will hear your shout out. :)
I don't have a laptop to send updates everyday during my apartment hunt, so I don't know how often I'll be able to post on the road, but I'll do the best I can. A lot of hotels have computers so we'll see. And maybe the apartment complex where I rent will have a business center I can use before my POD gets there. I can be very resourceful. :D
I hope all is well for you and you are finding your peace. I'm so glad to have found your blog. There is a kinship here... I feel it. Blessings to you in all you do. Tazzy
