There comes a time in every human project when the person or people involved are ready to stop! It may be a business deal to conclusion, pregnancy to birth, rehearsals to opening night, or moving to settling in. Right now, in my life’s journey it is moving (again) to settling in.
Our house in Tahoe has not sold so we can’t buy another house at a lower elevation in Oregon. Our plan is to sell, buy, and move in. Right now our plan is to store some things, move some things by shipping, and move some things in the car with us. This process is taking forever. I am so ready to be done!
Our present landlord has generously offered to let us rent his out building for storage until we return to this house in November when they move back to Florida. What we are all hoping is that our house in Tahoe sells, we buy this house, and when we move again in November, it is to come to “our” house with our stuff and he and his wife are moving to Arizona.
Right now though - this minute on the 27th of April 2023 - I am over it. I am done. I want to wave my magic wand (or twitch my nose if you are old enough to remember Samantha) and have all the packing, storing, and decision making behind me and be in Southern California.
The truth is - in spite of this rant - we are doing and have done well. All but a few little items are in the out building; UPS has picked up 8 of our 9 boxes to ship; the car top carrier is proving its worth; and we have Amazing helpers: Michelle, Marc and Trinity, and our cleaning company women. A thanks and shout out to all of them. Our 80-year-old legs and arms are grateful for all the help. Two and a half days, and we will be on our way.
