...I am restless. Uneasy. I cant put one foot in front of the other with any sort of confidence. What a difference two weeks can make. My focus has shifted. And even though, it has shifted to two major, important, and now unavoidable things, I cant help but feel that I am neglecting the things I was so driven on just two short weeks ago. I just hope that I can find my way back to that path with the same intense passion and drive I was overflowing with before.

...I am planning. My mind is racing with plans for the new loft. I cannot wait! I am really hoping this move will be a good opportunity for me to practice organization and moderation. In the next two weeks I will be throwing out a lot and bringing in a little. We are trying to find the few key pieces we will be willing to spend a little more on, hoping we will get more out of them. Good plan? I think so.

...I am in love. So in love with my little puppy. Dexter is the best little dog I could have hoped for. He has been so great. He has been sleeping through the night, though he likes to wake up a little earlier than I do. He loves to chew and run and sleep and growl. And he follows me where ever I go. And I love it. I love him.

  5. I'm moving right now too! and it's so weird to have to deal with the urge to just get it done and the want to create a newer better version of home by taking your time!

    I understand your feeling completely.

  6. Restlessness... I sure have dealt with a lot of that too recently. I also agree with Miss Angie, use it to help you take that step forward. Dive in. :)

  7. I know about restlessness, I'm feeling that way right now. Just when I thought I had settled into myself after my accident along comes another period of self-discovery. But this time I'm embracing it.

    Restlessness is good. Although it's unsettling at the time it forces us to ask questions and learn more about ourselves and what we want at this moment in our life.

    I think this will pass and you just may look back and find you learned a few things along the way. It may be a forced break to help you approach those things you hold a passion for from a different angle.

  9. I am in the same boat. It's like so much is going on, it's hard to focus on everything! When something takes a lot of our energy, we can't help but drop the other things just to put out the focus required. But I assure you that you'll be back to where you want to be, I just know it. :)

“But it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.” — American Beauty
