probably one of the hardest
since operation simplify was initiated
it was probably inevitable
things were going well in my mind
and I was soldiering along
dismantling any obstacle in my way
can't find a short term lease
flirt a little, use those big brown eyes for all they are worth
and secure a 3 month lease for a great price
in an apartment building downtown
can't get any packing done as someone keeps unpacking every box
send him away with his dad for the weekend
and become a packing maniac
enrolling anyone who stops by into your packing marathon
your children throw up roadblocks of why this decision is ruining their life's
walk a fine line of artful negotiator and salesmen of the year
to convince them this is actually a fun adventure
but today
it just came crashing down around me
and I was having serious regrets
that maybe I had indeed ruined my children's mental health
and that moving wasn't actually going to create any sense of simplification
at the end of the day, perhaps this was a colossal disaster of an idea
I may have been living in la la land that it would be possible
to create a more simple life when you live in a fast paced large city.
yep...I was having a big old pity party.
I then received a very thoughtful gift from
my friend and blog follower Lisa today that couldn't
possibly be any more well timed...
~ the words that jumped out at me as soon as I saw it "No Regrets"
Thank you Lisa for the pick me up that was much needed.
I also want to throw out a rather large thank you to my family and friends that have been very supportive and helpful during this time. It has not gone unnoticed and is very much appreciated.
