Ever So Slightly...

I'm feeling back into the movement. Several thoughts dawned on me today, such as, "Wow! These moving boxes I'm packing have been reused and reused and reused through how many different moves now?" which left me feeling like I've been doing more of "my part" than I've maybe realized.

Today was also a productive day. I finished almost all of my packing this morning and did three loads of wash. Then I spent the day accomplishing a lot of the last minute things I had on my list. I took care of my last duty for my boss, I printed out and mailed in another component for the new job I'm applying for, I picked up the written prescription I have so I can fill it after moving, I got my hair trimmed, I enjoyed a late spicy lunch and spent some final quality time with a gal pal of mine, and I stopped at a store and picked up some breakfast goods for my final days and a few items that aren't as readily available in the south.

As things are dying down, my mood is constantly improving. Just another demonstration that streamlining one's life can be helpful, and something I need to keep in mind for future reference. In going through my stack of accumulated magazines, I've discovered that the magazine I've been receiving as a gift, Body & Soul, is a real gem. It also has gotten me back to thinking on a more simple and healthy mindedness path.

In a search of Louisiana the other day, I did discover a fairly organic farm with u-pick produce not too far from where we will be located, so things are looking up on that level as well!

In the last few days I've been doing some thinking of everything that has happened this year. It's pretty amazing of all that has been accomplished and enjoyed, but it feels that so much of it has gone so fast! However I also realize that I have much to be thankful for and much to look forward to....and much I should give. I'm sure these final few days before hitting the road will be a blur and I'm thinking Friday may be more emotional than I have anticipated, but I'm hopeful to maintain this positive, simplistic, and healthy outlook throughout the rest of this transition period.

And luckily internet is already set-up down south in the house, so hopefully I'll get into the habit right away of posting more frequently! Best to everyone!
