So we move tomorrow. BAH - Move Day has come so quickly. Friday was my "freak out" day where all the anxieties sort of .... exploded. Every move we have (which is often) has one night or day of spazzing out about all the major changes, but oddly enough we wouldn't have it any other way. Mike & I have moved 7 times (this move being our 8th) in the 4 1/2 years we've been together. We just love new adventures and experiences. Mike made a great point the other night explaining that it makes sense this is an extra stressful move as we are changing EVERYTHING all at once: jobs, living space, city we live in, and going back to school. This time it isn't just one or two big changes, but everything - scary!!
I had the greatest conversation with my sister (Laura) today about the types of people we are and it really calmed me of my anxieties. We are both such different women. She lives and makes decisions based on a wonderful plan she has had for her life since she was young. College*House*Marriage*Baby. And I live by no real plan - following my heart wherever it leads me. Of course we are both happy and wouldn't change our lives for anything, but as always we have moments of envy. It helped me to realize 1. I'm making the right decision for our lives 2. I'm not the only person that still thinks "the grass is greener..." every once in awhile and 3. that I found an amazing man who values the same type of lifestyle as I do. Life is truly grand and I really appreciate it - even the tough stuff.
Thanks to those of you who have started to follow this!
