Slowing Down, Moving On

Went to IKEA the other day. Took the girls, had lunch (salmon, mmmm) and looked around.



And bought: Nothing. Not one thing.

Which means we are getting ready to go. This house is over; time to focus on the new one.

But I'm not buying stuff in anticipation of the new place, which I could be doing. Because we'll be doing some work - significant work - we are waiting.

It will be different than this move, where we moved into a house that was completely done; all we had to do was unpack and we were good to go. This time, we'll be moving into a place that is not even ready (with the exception of the living room and third-floor game roome and pool) - nearly every other room will be undergoing some sort of transformation, some big, some small.

Sounds like stress. But I'll have friends around to help with that part. We are ready.
