Selling the family home of almost 30 years ranks in stress, second only to losing my darling man to ALS..Giving things away, my heart was sad, yet glad to those with great appreciation to funky and practical. I sold almost nothing as I wanted good appreciative homes for my things. I am moving out to a temporary apt this Tuesday until mine is finished.
Evan's 17th birthday was June 28. This past Friday, I celebrated with him and all the family as they came to say goodbye to the home they were raised in, in their formative years.
My downhome and funky label to remind Evan that he is so loved.
I put this in the middle of the backing to ensure Evan has blessings with him.
He even had birthday cake, And, as he works in the pizza restaurant, he made all the pizzas himself.
Saying goodbye with Grandma to the family house.
My DIL said goodbye too...I have known her since she was 20
I am finally packed and ready thanks to marvelous friends who volunteered to help me. I was stunned at the help coming down the pike. Each was able to do something different. I am blessed for sure. I will not feel on my new path until I am gone from here. That will happen on Tuesday with a closing on Thursday Amazing Grace. I tell my husband about this every single night.
Lessening my load with things in my home for 28 years...I loved reading this interesting piece:
Four Thousand Weeks and the Age of Subtraction
