Technically I don’t own it, but it’s mine. But I happy day it was. I’m sharing my picture which I normally would never do because it’s not a flattering shot at the smile on my face was pure joy. This is my mom and my stepdad with me. They were just as happy. It was exciting to go to the condo with my own set of keys and open the door and see this…. My own blank slate. It was…
You ever have those kind of days where everything falls, things break, or everything just seems to not go right? That’s my day went yesterday. It wasn’t things that I did necessarily. It wasn’t my MS and my hands couldn’t hold something, something that happens often. It was different things around me. It was going to the doctor and having to sit there after they change my appointment from 2:30 to 1:30 and I ended up not being seen until…
This is a sad but beautiful song by the group Red. It’s about anyone you’ve lost. Guess part of packing and seeing old pictures is also realizing all those who have passed on as well. Hymn for the Missing Red LYRICS I tried to walk together But the night was growing dark Thought you were beside me But I reached and you were gone Sometimes I hear you calling From some lost and distant shore I hear you crying softly…
The first piece of me was added to the condo yesterday. My light fixture over my dining room table. This is a terrible picture because it looks gold in this yellowish light but it’s silver. It actually looks like this. In the condo she has these lights with lamp shades makes everything look yellow. Today my step dad and I are going to Home Depot to pick out new door locks and sconces. On a side note yesterday was the…
First, I’m going to update you on my yesterday‘s post regarding my beautiful daughter and her boyfriend, they are back together and all is fine. It’s amazing about these two, as much as I can’t stand the relationship sometimes, they’re perfect for each other in a lot of ways. He’s just as messed up as she is. He truly loves her and she truly loves him. If they can both just grow up and communicate with each other their relationship…
Happy Thanksgiving for those in the US. We have a tradition, started by my sister, that we go around the table to say what we are thankful for each year. This year I decided to blog my list. My daughter. She is and will always be the center of my world. She is the gift I get to keep watching evolve each year and change and become the beautiful picture she is today. She is my proudest moment in any…
I’ve written many posts about my family. I have said many times how much they support me, how amazing they are, and how I truly truly cherish them. I was packing yesterday, and one of my drawers are all these little notes from my dad. There is easily 50 pieces of paper. See every couple of months my dad sends me something and in it he always writes a small note. And every time he writes me, I put the…
Last night I went back to the condo for the first time since we put the offer in, which was back in September. The first question my Mom asked is do you still love it, the answer was absolutely. I’m so excited it is so gorgeous. The first thing I did was walk over to the balcony and look outside and I was not disappointed. The view is even better than my picture show. Her cat was sleeping on one…
My apartment I’m living in has already been rented. A nice woman came yesterday and immediately left a deposit. First person to see the place. No going back now. Well hopefully we close before December 31st otherwise I’m homeless. I know we will but it still made my mother and I a little nervous. This other woman is putting notice on her apartment with her landlord so it’s like a ripple effect. Work done in the condo or not, I…
Now that I’m moving, I have to pack. I went from my house to an apartment. It was a lot of downsizing. Now I’m going from an apartment to a condo. So I have to downsize again. I thought it was hard moving from a three bedroom house with a full dining room, living room, kitchen and den into a two bedroom apartment. Now I have to go from a two bedroom apartment with a huge living room, kitchen, crawlspace,…
