I cleaned out my hall closet today.
I haven't touched it in atleast 4 years.
I found a journal I kept from when I was going through my divorce. I took a peek, even though I was apprehensive about doing so....There was sadness, confusion, and pain in my writings but what was also there, (and I must say it surprised me) was an over riding expression of hope.
Also in the closet was a little pair of black paten leather shoes that my daughter wore one year for Easter, and an itty bitty pair of snow boots from when she was maybe 4 or 5 years old. It made me smile to see these things. :O)
let's see.....I also found a couple rolls of Christmas wrapping paper, an old pair of draperies, a couple snow coats,a black leather jacket, gloves, and hats......4 or 5 old purses, plumbing fixtures, a Barbie suitcase, a pair of rollar blades, and a bunch of crumbled up papers.
I threw everything away(it feels so good to purge) except for the shoes, snow boots, barbie suitcase,plumbing fixtures, and my journal.
My living room is filled with boxes and bags of crap from my bedroom closet. I need to go through it all, throw stuff out, repack the important stuff, and put it in the hall closet. My bedroom closet will be empty except for clothes, shoes and hand bags.Yay!
My x-love from PA is moving to Arizona, Saturday. He interviewed for a job there on Tuesday, accepted the job, found an apartment, will move Saturday, and start the new job on Monday. I think it's neat that some people can just pick up and move....follow their hearts desire. If it was in me to just pick up and move, I'd move to the Keys. I'd live as simple a life as possible.......I might be happy in a little shack (so long as it was clean)if it was in the Keys, and I'd get a job at Fishermans Hosp. in billing or dietarty, or the gift shop....anything but nursing...
My x-husband the kids and I spent many summers in the Keys. Our Latin friends would come down to the Keys from Miami on the weekend to party....lots of great music, food, dancing, and people. I miss it, and it's where I'd want to live.
