Changes

Things are kind of insane right now. Within a span of four days, we brought home a foster cat, realized that with two people and two cats we definitely couldn’t keep ‘making do for now’ with the amount of space we have, found a new place via Craigslist, checked it out, and secured it as our own.

We move in August 8.

The new place is warm and bright and we could feel its good vibes immediately. We’ll be doing some major purging as we sort through our collective belongings to pack, ridding ourselves of literal and figurative baggage. I’ve been feeling discombobulated for a long time, having trouble focusing and not feeling like I had the time or mental energy to bring to life the creative things that have been banging around in my head. The thought of starting in a physical, mental, emotional space that’s a fresh and clean slate is so freeing, and this is such a huge step toward making the lives we actually want to live, that when I think about it I get a really strong physical reaction – a nervous energy roiling in my stomach, making me nauseated and giddy at the same time.
