Today

-Today we were supposed to be meeting the movers at our new house to move our stuff in. Instead our stuff is still sitting in storage up in Ohio. Costing us money, every. single. day.

-Today I got the news that it will be next week before I even hear if we are making progress towards closing on the house.

-Today I got flowers from my realtor in Ohio (thanks Tiffany) and I almost started to cry.

-Today I want my old house back. I want my old life back.

-Wednesdays at 3:30 was Blake’s guitar lessons. It’s 3:19 and my heart sank just thinking how he hasn’t touched his guitar since we moved.

-Austin would be in the middle of hell week for lacrosse.

-Today I would be cooking dinner in a kitchen big enough to put more than one pot on the counter. I wouldn’t be snapping at Eva ever time she walks into the kitchen (I step on her constantly because I turn around and there she is and there just isn’t room for two people- no matter how short!)

-Today I would go back.

-Today I am frantically typing before Blake gets off the bus and pretends to not see my cry. Because he knows why.

-Today I just want a home. To start our new life.

-Today I have begun looking for bigger rentals as a back-up plan. Our lease here is up at the end of March.

-Today I am just feeling a little sorry for myself.

    So sorry you are having a rough day. When all this is in the past you will look back and realize this is just a little bump in the road to your beautiful new adventure in life. Hang in there:)

    So, where do you want me to build the fence on Spring Break. If you don’t tell me where to put the fence I will simply build it wherever I like. Maybe on Briar Hill Road… By the way, one of the big tractors is gone, and one of the Zero-Turn mowers left today.

    Today you have a lot of people thinking about you & hoping that it is giving you some extra strength. It is not easy to do what you are doing. There are so many struggles & frustrations. Just remember that it won’t be long before you are into a new routine & loving your new space. May today just be a bump in the road & tomorrow there be sunshine to brighten your day.

    I am so sorry Elisa. Really…so sorry. It’s so good to voice it though. I send you a big blog hug.

    Sending good thoughts your way! Everything will fall into place, and you will have your own bigger space soon. It is frustrating when things don’t go the way we want, but it will all be okay. It is okay to be sad and cry about things you miss, they are a part of who you are!

    I hate that you are having a bad day…or week. It’s got to be driving you crazy to be in limbo land. I’m praying that whatever is the hold up gets cleared out soon. Just hang on to the fact that this was an answered prayer and it’s all good. One way or the other…it’s all good.

    Sorry I haven’t been around. I got sick after Sophia did and it kicked my butt for almost a full week. I stink at being sick. Thankfully, I’m all better now 🙂 I hope you feel better tomorrow in the sun shine too.

    Deep breaths. Things will work out. Maybe not as quickly as you would like but they will. It will all be okay soon. Soon you will have all new routines that make up your world. And you’re entitled to feel sorry for yourself every once in a while! If it helps, you have my sympathy. 🙂
