    More Than I Deserve 

    It’s Saturday morning and I’m sitting here at Steve’s amazed at all I’ve been blessed with. The new apartment is like a breath of fresh air on our lives. It’s taking shape and looking more and more like a real home. I don’t feel like I’m waiting to start my life. The lighting in it is inspiring and gets my creative juices flowing. The office feels like a classic study. The quietness of the new place is partly peaceful and a bit errie all rolled into one. I feel blessed beyond what I deserve. The wait to move felt like torture and now that we’re in it feels like we’ve already lived there a week and it’s only our second full day of being residents.

    Today is going to be filled with a big grocery shop and finishing beautifying the old place. Tonight will consist of popcorn and a movie. Even though I’m tired and sore from the move it’s a good sore. It’s a feeling of accomplishment and peace.

    Morning of the move. Sitting at Steve’s Espresso relaxing till it’s time. Hard to relax. Antsy to get the keys and get started.

    Last Minute Things 

    Tonight went out with my husband to celebrate our last night in our ‘old’ apartment.  We went for a nice dinner at a new place we discovered called Lucky Lou’s. It’s a small sports bar that has a nice atmosphere and delicious food for a good price.  After we ate we then went on a  walk around the park that’s across from our new home.  I love the lighting in the early evening.   The trees seem to take on this magical glow.  Now we’re at home and getting last-minute things situated before morning.      It’s hard to believe we’re finally moving to a new place.  Living in the same apartment for five years feels like eternity, but when you find a place you truly like then five years isn’t going to feel long at all.

    I’m looking forward to going to Steve’s for a mocha in the morning to help wake me up since I know tomorrow will be a long day, but a great one.  I’m excited my mom is going to be coming over to help me shelf paper in the morning.  It will be nice to have some mother/daughter bonding time while prepping the apartment.  It will be fun to decorate and organize again.

    I’m actually looking forward to going back to work Monday.  I like time off, but I’m so used to working a lot tha

    t having a week off feels like a long time.  Crazy sounding I know! :)   Of course it will be nice to have only 4 day work weeks for the next two weeks.

    I can’t believe Christmas is a week from tomorrow.  This whole year has just flown by.  I remember when the year 2000 felt so futuristic and now it will be 2010.  It’s going to be weird to write that down. I’m looking forward to a new year, a new place to live and endless possibilities.

      Good luck with the move! Moving can be so rewarding and fun. I went the whole house route rather than apt or renting route..but man oh man..it is a ton of work and sometimes I wonder if I would rather rent. haha!

    Cleaning the kitchen is going well. Nearing the end. Waiting for the floor to dry, then going to have some lunch. I can’t believe tomorrow is the day. This week is sure going by quick. Looking forward to unpacking and decorating tomorrow. Excited that the movers bumped up their arrival time.
