Almost Here!!!!


It's almost move in day!!!! I know it has been awhile since I have last posted anything on this site. But life for me has been crazy. Both personally and professionally. Since Lowak I have had my heart severally broken to the point of question if it would ever be whole again. I lost a very dear friend this past winter and his death has made me appreciate every person that is in my life as well as live with no regrets. I had an aunt diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time and cousin, who I am extremely close to, experienced a scare with breast cancer. After these past five months I wonder how it is that I have faith at all because believe me - my faith these past couple of months has really been tested. I keep wondering will when the testing stop? But maybe that is a test as well. Moving in to this house is going to be bitter sweet. When I first received news that I was going to get a house I pictured myself moving in with my family. Maybe that is to come later. Who knows?
But here is the most recent phote (I took it this morning) my house. As you can tell it has windows, doors, and is bricked. And now I have grass!!!!!! I have a lawn!!!! It has taking many months to get to this point. This process has been long but very much appreciated and I can not wait to move in. I have been going back and forth on ways to decorate, what colors am I going to use in the bedroom, living room and the kitchen? How am I going to decorate my bathroom, my dinning room, or spare room? It has been overwhelming at times. But, I have made a few decisions. My master bath and bedroom will have the colors of Chocolate and Tiffany Blue (how can a girl not like the color of a Tiffany's box!). My kitchen and dinning room will reflect Tuscany and a vineyard so there will be grapevines, sunflowers, rustic colors of yellow (burnt yellow) and burgundy. There will also be copper and weathered wood blended in here and there. My living room I'm still pondering. I want it to be welcoming because I plan to have many family moments in this room. I will eventually be painting the walls in these room but only when I am able to. That will be a whole new overwhelming issue for me to get through.
Even though life has happened to me these past months doesn't mean that some good hasn't come out of it. Because it has. I'm looking at it as a new chapter in my life that has started. It's like I have a clean slate but this time I decide what is written on it. This time I keep close watch over my life and not let others direct me. I've learned to try and not hold anger towards those who have hurt or angered me because that just makes me an angry and bitter person. And I don't want to look at what happened in the past. I want to move forward and what better way to do that than to move to a new address.
