Walking Back and Forth, Back and Forth

We are both walking into new chapters of our lives.

MOVING OUT

We just bought my mom’s house. So, I am helping her move out so we can move in. She never thought she would move out. It’s bittersweet. She had so many dreams for this house but working on it has been a long and tedious process. She’s getting more excited as we get her belongings moved from the house. The burden of finishing the house is lifting from her shoulders and she is ready to be free.

PRODUCTIVE

Moving box after box after box. We walked and walked and walked. Packing boxes into the trailers from the house is getting old. It’s productive and rewarding in it’s own way though. We will finish moving her stuff in the next two days.

YUCKY

The weather has been so random. Yesterday it rained off and on. Today it snowed and rained with some dry times mixed between them. The weather doesn’t check in with our schedule, it doesn’t care. It was fun to see the snow flurries. It’s probably going to be one of the last snow days of the year. It didn’t stick. It was just wet and beautiful. And the ground was a bit muddy. The entryway is muddy and will need to be cleaned. I’m waiting until we finish moving her stuff until I clean the floors.

IMPROVEMENTS AND TIME

I am grateful for the time I have and the exercise I’m getting while I help my mom. I am grateful we have this opportunity to buy a home inexpensively, it needs a lot of work. My hubby thinks it will take about three years to finish the house. I hope we can live in it for at least ten years while we pay the loan off. We’d like to live in it forever, but we are realistic about its limitations as we age. It is designed for young bodies, not old bodies with limitations. We don’t know what our limitations will be in the future.

OLD DREAM, NEW DREAM

I am grateful my mom gets to follow her next dream with her honey, while I follow her old dream with my honey. It should be interesting to see how we change the house. I hope she likes it when we are finished. It won’t be the same as the dream she had. It will have become our dream. And in the process we are both getting a lot of walking into our days along with time spent together as we both start new chapters in our lives. Healthy bodies, healthier relationship.
