We are moving. Last week we looked at rentals. They are mostly fine. I want something close to town, with light from outside coming in. We found that.
We also had to fortune of finding a house that is not on the market, but needing to be sold, through a friend. It is a good house for us, on 1.6 acres, across the street from 400 acres of state park land. It has fruit trees, 3 bedrooms, an office and open living space. We can afford it, so we are in escrow, closing on the 16th.
I'll be honest when I say that I am less than excited. It meets our needs, and is easy for us, so I am very, very glad. I've packed a lot, so it should be seamless. As nothing is ever seamless, I am holding off on excitement, but it is a happy day. I've found that working hard has little to do with luck.
This week I played badminton for the first time in 21 years. That was exciting and fun, packing boxes and fixing a few problems at the new place is less than fun for me. When we are moved, unpacked, and it feels like home, I'll be excited. It happens for me when I can find my way to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and when I imagine myself, I see myself 'at home'. I'll be excited to go home.
