Insomnia Blues

That is where I am tonight.  Can't sleep and don't want to hit the Xanax bottle. I think it is the stress of getting this move done.  The rent check just cleared at the bank and I have the new house key on my ring. It's official.  I love the new place, but as usual change is scary to me, whether good or bad.  It's change.  I wonder why so many people are afraid of change?  I hear everyone mention that.  It's like being in a situation that you can take or leave, just being stagnant.  When an opportunity comes along to improve your quality of life you hem and haw.  Thankfully this change is being forced upon us, and I know it's for the best.  I am now officially broke, but my money all went for positive things.  There are so many things I want to get for the new place.  I can't wait for the yard sales to start.  One man's junk....

I just want to thank everyone who has been reading me for quite awhile and the newer folks who just started.  I value your comments and look forward to reading everyone's life journey's daily.  It makes me feel that I am not alone in my struggle to move forward in my life, no matter how many obstacles are thrown in the way.  So thank you everyone for all the support you have given me through the years.  It really does make a difference.  Be well and keep rowing that boat..You will reach your destiny soon enough.  Peace!

You're definitely not alone in your struggle to move forward ;-). I'm a bit stagnant at the minute . . . I would love to move house, just so I would be forced to have a massive clear out.
I think I will pretend that I'm m oving house for a few days . . . then pretend that it fell through. Yes, that should do it. Now I've just gotta convince myself.
It's not so bad being broke when the money has gone on positive things is it? That's pretty much where I am too.
Hope you got some sleep as "rowing that boat" is not so tiring after a good sleep. Take care . . . I'm being dragged away (as usual)

Lori I think you have reasons enough to have a SLIGHT fear of change. You have been through so many these past few years but the thing is you always came through the dark spots with your dignity and grace intact. That is to your credit, your strength that the appreciation goes.

You know how to settle into a house and make it a home. Be well yourself as you settle in. Have a peace filled Sunday.

I'm glad you didn't reach for the X-bottle. Life is good, all on its own. Even the bad times should be experienced with a clear head...

It's all good, Lori. Breathe deep, and enjoy.

We will meet someday, I KNOW it! When we do, we will grab Mark, the Walking Man, and make him buy us a coffee!

Change is inevitable, by definition.
Your new digs are welcome, I am sure, to you.
Some gardening and flowers are in order now . . .

Glad that all is going well with the impending move. No need to reach for a bottle of pills. It is all good, no matter what.
