One week until the next adventure begins.
I’m house sitting at the top of the hill. I awoke to the sound of goats baa-ing out my window. My view is rooftops and golden grass and oak trees. one of my favorite landscapes. This is home.
Tonight watching the sunset over the valley, the wind blew softly and I sat, content.
Conversations with Rob this week. Unexpectedly heeling. I feel lighter. I feel free from that weight I had been carrying. Bitterness, anger – Feels so nice to set those down.
Maybe now I can really move on.
I feel almost ready to hop this plane. No freak outs yet. I still have 7 days to go though.. so we shall see. haha…
I started making a list of things that I’ve experienced that have given me inexplicable joy.
I look forward to adding to it. I’ll keep it remind me when I have my sinking moments.
