The Week of the Move

It's the week of the move and we're knee deep in boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape. It's quite exhausting no doubt, but we're thankful. It's great that before taking the next step on our journey we're being slimmed down even further. It's kind of a natural process I guess, and i really like it. Throwing stuff away we haven't used in 4 years, we have used but won't need anymore, and stuff that's just that....stuff, and we don't need it! It's a great feeling and the load is getting lighter by the second.

But then there are things we're having to do which feel crazy. Like the fact that we're moving into a 2 bedroom apartment while Kell goes for her masters! And the fact that I won't have a garage to work in (that is until He provides one), and the fact that I had to throw away a bunch of wood yesterday that we won't have room for in storage which could've been turned into furniture. We're not sure where Kelly will have room to sew. And income, yeah I'll get back to you on that. That's to name a few.

But yet, it's all right. You know? All right. It doesn't feel wrong, just crazy. We asked for this and we're getting it. There will be twists and turns and bumps, smooth sailing, and rough waters. And we're in it. Enjoying the ride. Embracing the adventure. Everything we need will come if it's not already sitting in our lap. And really i'm coming to learn that all the stuff we can't see....that's the easy part. He's got that. It's what we can see that's difficult. That person in the mirror who wants to know the answers. 

Well the answers will come.  In the meantime, time to finish up packing the kitchen.  Going to get the moving truck tomorrow!  Blogging will certainly be sporadic over the next week or so, but I look forward to giving details when I can!
