I may be writing this too soon after waking up from a nap, or the cold that I came down with this weekend is affecting my state of mind, or it really is that my head is is up in the clouds further than it has ever been before, but it’s true…my mind has officially detached itself from my body and up and left me for good [or so it feels]. It should also be worth noting that I just drank iced tea which had a huge ball of mold or something floating in it that I didn’t notice until the last minute so there is a good chance I am dying and my brain is just saying peace out. Regardless, for the last several days my mind has been like a game of Scrabble–pieces here, there, and everywhere. The leading contributing factor of this has to be the whole moving of houses situation–any type of big change always feels weird for a period of time in my head. I don’t think I have much anxiety or doubts over the situation as I am trusting what we are doing is the best thing for us at this time, however saying good-bye to what you are used to is always a tad bit bittersweet and confusing. When I can’t 100% picture myself in an environment it makes it all feel strange and like it’s not really happening [think leaving on vacation]. I also don’t believe having one million and ten decisions to make on the new house is making my mind any clearer. Whoever said choosing paint colors, kitchen counters, style of cabinets, etc is easy is lying and should ask for forgiveness immediately. I know once we actually get in there and our thoughts of “we have to do this! and that! and that too!” turn into “that’s done now, and so is that, and look it’s all done!” will make me feel a lot bit better but until we get to that point, don’t be surprised if I answer “bronze please” to your question of “how are you doing?” or “paint sprayer” to “what did you have for dinner last night?” It’s all a little messy up in there.
Point number three in today’s post–I wrote two blog posts over the weekend which is absurd and unheard of. You can read about why I don’t enjoy my blog anymore here and how dreams do come true here.
Annnnnd last but certainly not least, it’s time for the final group giveaway here on LIY. Being that it’s the last one, I wanted to ensure it would be good. As you will see below, it is exactly that.
