Moving on Up

Great title...or is it? There are many things in life that we can adjust to and work towards, but one of the many hard things is MOVING. Okay it's not the moving but the packing up, throwing out or just deciding what to keep and what to give away. The last time this happened was in 1997 and we didn't have to do anything as some little juvenile criminals did the damage and our insurance company paid for a company to come in and pack up all of our treasurers and then move us. Now ten years later it's our turn to pack up our belongings and move on to a new chapter in our life.
We don't know where were going or even when.
If we thought that deciding what to pack; what to give-away; and what to throw away was tough, now we need to decide what to live in and then get there. Of course that's the half of it, but we also need to get our current house ready to sell. And anyone that has sold a house knows, there are many little & big things to get done before you can even list it. We have only a few things to fix but it's the de-cluttering that is the challenge. We have things left over from the kids and now we have added baby things again because of the grand kids. So we have an adventure ahead of us. But we know that this will be wonderful, challenging time as we decide on what's best for our future. Being an empty nester has it's rewards and benefits and I love my Life, as ut can't get any better.
