Do you have any sense of looking forward to being finished at your work place and free for awhile as you get moved, settled in, and then begin a job search. How you are feeling right now - the exhaustion, and of being overworked or stressed - will probably be with you for another couple of weeks, but I'm hoping that these hard days will fade away pretty quickly once you're on the road, moving into new terrain, walking new streets and seeing new things. That's how it has been for me - the wrapping things up at my old place so that I could go elsewhere. Last summer was truly difficult as you don't just stick a for sale sign on a farm you have been living on for 35 years. The work of getting it ready to put for sale was pretty horrific -- would have been for two of us, but almost impossible to do alone -- but when it was done and the place was sold, I can't really describe the freedom that I felt as I drove away the day after signing off all of the papers at the lawyer's office. I thought I'd feel regret and sadness, but it was just relief. Big sighs of relief. I hope you get to heave a few of those when the time comes.bevhttp://magickcanoe.com/blog11noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-302767455915995629.post-21849875093926980952010-06-26T04:59:15.375-07:002010-06-26T04:59:15.375-07:00it is the uninspired days that seems like the days...it is the uninspired days that seems like the days when you most need to say something. for me it is. but i cannot write. it is all inside me and i cannot put it all together. your goal of writing every day is an awesome one that you have set and you are doing beautifully. simply in telling of your day, the small thoughts of how exhausted you are, say quite a bit. it is simply living with grief while having to live that is the heroic journey. you are continuing to live and not merely exist that makes you who you are. in caring for your children and in searching for a new place for yourself to find peace, you are proof that we can survive deep emotional pain, even if we don't believe we can.<br /><br />peace to you and your children.<br /><br />p.s most old suitcases can be forced open without damage. after my father died i found such an old suitcase that had heavy things in it that banged around. i pried it open and oddly, found his old spurs and branding iron for the ranch i grew up on. the suitcase still closes just fine and i have the spurs and branding iron out to look at.abandonedsoulshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06020499806998154330noreply@blogger.com
