MOVING REQUIRES SO MANY DECISIONS

My Brain Is Tired Tonight. I Need A Hug.

DECISIONS

My mom is moving out of her house and I am moving into the house. She has worked on that house for over two years. Many of the items can be left with the house because they were purchased to finish the house. So, the questions kept coming today regarding items that I may need or want. How can I possibly know what I am going to need in the next three years as we work on this house?

UNKNOWNS

There are so many things I just don’t have answers to yet. We don’t even know where to put the water heater. Upstairs where she had us move it months ago for her to install? Or maybe we will decide it needs to go downstairs instead. It must get installed in the next three weeks so we can live in the house. She lived in her RV while she worked on the house. We don’t have any option but to live in the house.

FURNITURE

Some of the furniture in the house is stuff she wants to leave, but I don’t want or need it. So, where do we put it until the June yard sale when she is back in town? Good question. Having to make those decisions today was overwhelming. There are a few other items like books, dishes, trash cans, brooms and a swiffer to decide about also. I don’t want to keep anything we don’t need. I don’t want to regret saying we don’t need something either. We finally came up with a solution. Her RV will be parked outside until she returns from her trip. We can put anything we don’t need into the RV and she will decide if she wants to keep it or sell it in the June yard sale. Getting to the point where we decided all of that was draining.

HUGS

Tonight I need a hug. Actually a couple hugs. Hugs make my brain decompress. My energy changes. My body relaxes. The stress in my brain just seems to go away. I am so grateful I can ask for a hug when I need one. My mom gives good hugs. My husband gives good hugs. It has been a tough, productive day and I am grateful this day has finished.
