Very soon I will be moving from my own apartment to a house with a large Labrador Retriever and a roommate! I'll no longer have the pleasure of walking to work, leaving my car protected in a carport (and not having to drive it to work in the winter after spending time cleaning snow off of it - oh how I wish that I lived in Arizona), staying up late on the couch, and all the kinds of things that one does when one does not have a roomie.
However, I am SO looking forward to living in a house, having the company of another person (and cooking for more than just me - booorrring), an excited dog to greet me when I come home, a place to decorate (I have visions of bright blue paint in the laundry room), and most of all getting bills paid and living on a better budget!
The hardest part for me is letting go of "stuff" which is a good thing! I have too much stuff!
I'm sick of seeing said stuff everywhere ... and packing it up. LOL! It's getting to be crunch time and I've called in some assistance. Thank God for my good friend who is so willing to help me out.
Soon I hope to be back to posting more interesting content and pretty pictures! Spring is coming and I'm getting excited for all the possibilities that a new season in life brings.
p.s. isn't she cute? :)

Hang in there Angela! Look at it as a new adventure in your life. Imagine the possibilities...Less stress over bills,hopefully no noisy neighbors,you can get a pet too,cooking for someone who appreciates the effort you put in! Put a positive twist on it! Looking forward to some pretty Spring pictures from you. Hugs,Auntie G.
ReplyDeleteAngela that sounds like a positive move, the dog will for sure keep a smile on your face. It will be fun to come home to home with more going on for you. Congratulations, and good luck getting rid of stuff thats always hard! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteI am excited for you! Miss you yoo :)
ReplyDeleteThat's exciting news! I hope your move goes well!
ReplyDeleteI was just at Rockbrook on Wednesday and thought of you. I'd love to run into you again! : )
It's ok that you spelled my name wrong I'm just glad you visited! Sometimes it takes a while to load :( I should do something about that!
ReplyDeleteAnd about the "stuff" I am in the same boat! My husband thinks its ridiculous all the stuff I save for "sentimental reasons"... thankfully we are moving and I have to get rid of most of it...which means that in 15 yrs I won't be featured on an episode of Hoarders!
Enjoy your new life:)...love the polka dots on your page...happy dots they are!
