MOVING!
August 5 I went about my routine as usual. August 6 I had an email from my son with the subject: “Here’s a house Susie found for you up here, what do you think?” and a website. From the time I opened that email, went up to see the house–love it–I’ve been on a 24-hour roller coaster from excitement to despair. The work involved in uprooting 51 years here is daunting. I’m not yet to the point where anyone can help me–no one else can look at something and decide what to do with it. So far, all the closets filled to the limit with “stuff” have been emptied and in process of categorizing–donate, trash, keep. They had wanted me to move to Austin ever since they moved there but I didn’t give it serious thought. Now a sequence of circumstances converged in a way that it almost seems to have been eerily ordained. Closing on both houses are being set within days for possession on or before October 1. Back to work!
