TIME TO MOVE
Well I finally made the big decision to move and I am actually acting on it. Okay, not the biggest move...it's only to a city 2 hours away, but it's a start. I am just thrilled to be making a change at this time. They say a change is as good as a rest right? By the way, I always wondered...who is "They" anyway??? Do they poll people to get all these creative, thought provoking sayings? Send in your own inspiring and motivating saying and you too can be considered one of "They"....hmmmm.
Moving to a bigger city will at least give me more access to centers and organizations where I will hopefully be able to promote my artwork on a larger scale. There are definately drawbacks to being in a small Northern community so I am excited at the possibilities.
I am also excited because I will be sharing the apartment with my 22 year old daughter. No, I am not crazy...we actually get along great and each have our separate lives and activities and we truly enjoy each others company. We are excited about fixing up our apartment all "Girlie". Don't laugh...okay, you can chuckle...but haven't any of you women always wanted to fix up your very own place that you don't have to share with any male? After 22 years of marriage and now my 2 sons are raised and on their own I have to admit, the idea of having a feminine 'girlie' bathroom with the seat lid always down...is pretty exciting to me.
As I write this I look around me and see all the work I have ahead of me. Condensing what use to be a house of 4 down into a two bedroom apartment. Time to purge and downsize and believe me that is not something I am good at. Okay, no more procrastinating. I wonder if "They" have a saying for that too??
