The next chapter

I've taken a bit of a break from blogging. But I'm back!

You see, I figured that closing on our house sale, packing, moving out of state, quitting the job I've had for six and a half years, and training for a half marathon were enough to fill my plate. Ha!

Actually, I'm a little surprised that I am still somewhat sane.

Not that I haven't been acting a little crazy... I've felt such a mix of emotions - happy/sad, excited/worried, optimistic/pessimistic, hopeful/sorrowful... Everything.

We made it to Oklahoma, though... I keep telling myself that the hard part is over. Right?

Maybe.

But it hasn't been easy. Actually, since we pulled the extra-large Uhaul into my in-laws' driveway last Thursday night, it's been a bit harder than I had been expecting.

But I can't help but be hopeful. I know there are silver linings, even if I can't see them yet. There are many perks of the move, and I know I have to relax and let everything fall into place.

Go with the flow, I guess.

Easier said than done, especially for a control-freak like me.

Wish us luck, y'all.

  1. It's a big change, remember when you moved to Nashville, that was a huge change also. Like you said, relax a little!!

    Need a break, come to Kansas City for a short weekend 3.5 hrs ;)

  2. I'm still in the same place if you need to chat! I always tell Austin we're going on an "adventure," and that seems to make it more exciting, even if it is just to the gas station. Have fun on your adventure! :)
