Suddenly Busy

My days are now all filled up with errands and my nights are booked with goodbye dinners. It is only a few more days until I depart this rainy city. I have been a mixed bag of emotions. One the one hand I am so excited to start a new chapter. On the other hand I get very sad when two really good friends decide to go to Portland instead of joining me in the good bye dinner I had planned for that evening. But then again I am glad to have that time that would have been spent with them to do the 900 other errands I need to get done before I leave.

So I am just going to keep focusing on getting my tasks done and seeing what friends I can see before I leave. Just because my life is changing does not mean that change is happening for everyone. And besides, I will be back to Seattle to visit.

I need to rest

Since coming back from the East Coast and realizing that I had big changes ahead of me, I have been fighting from becoming sick. I felt like I had a low level cold for weeks but I had several projects I needed to complete before I could give in and get sick. Yesterday marked the largest project being completed and this morning I woke up sick!

I feel icky. I am not yet panicked by the all loose ends I need to complete before I leave but I am still a little bummed I need to rest. However, I have been reading some really amazing blogs out there in cyber space and it is inspiring me. So even if I am sick and stuck in bed, I am still getting really excited about my new life. I can't wait to start this new chapter in life. After so many years of things not working out it is great to have life starting to become brighter, more positive and much more intention filled.

It is now becoming very real

What once seemed far off and just a dream like situation is now starting to become very real. The studio has officially closed and I am starting to pack up. This whole new adventure is starting to become very real and somewhat scary.

If one year ago someone had told me I would be moving to the Northeast I would have considered them crazy. I have no idea how this all came together but it did. The weather has been very cold in Seattle in preparation for my move. I need to get used to bone cold weather. My back is handling it well. So far so good. I did have to break out the heating pad but that's normal for this time of year.

For the next ten days I will be packing, cleaning and doing all those little errands I need to get done before I leave. Send a prayer out my way that I can get everything done without a total freak out.
