A New Nest

May 14th, 2009

I am off the road temporarily as I have finally moved. It was an undertaking to get everything packed up and out of the truck, but amazingly, I have sorted through everything quite quickly. Each item has its place, and compared to my new roommates I have realized how compulsively organized I am. At this point in my life, it gives me a sense of calm and control, or what? I have to stop myself occassionally from organizing each drawer with a theme, putting all the hangers in the same direction, organizing my favorite menu in Explorer...whoa, I didnt realize I was that OCD!

But now I have lots of room to roam around in the backyard, patio, sunny front porch. I feel completely comfortable and welcome, which lets me know I made the right choice despite being so ambivelant about things. Each day is another step, another layer, another increment of time that is moving me away from the things that made me unhappy, and towards the life I want. I feel really good about that.
