Let's take it.
Finding Home Again
One day last month I woke up and realized I was home. This house, this town, this pace. It's not a home with my family, but it's my home. I've settled in and have a routine. I'm wearing a familiar path through the days and have begun falling in love with things that are uniquely this place. The church bells that chime the hour from 7am to 9pm. Using regular time instead of military time like normal people (my old job used the 24 hour model). Having to "go to town" if I want to find a Target.
So many things still need work, but I'm feeling up for the challenge. Loads of wallpaper to strip, windows to replace, trim to replace, and paint. So. Much. paint. Building shelves in my attic and setting up a craft space are first up.
One thing about the last couple of years I've really missed is my garden. I plan to start small, but my small is always too big, so we shall see.
Finding your place in the space you are is so important. Stand in the place where you are...

What do you need?
The doors of the world have started to creak open. We tiptoe out of our houses and dunk our toes in the water. It feels so good, but it's still a little chilly for me. I'll stay on the dock for a while longer. It's what I need and that's ok.
What do you do when you start to struggle? When I feel like I'm drowning, I lay back and float until the feeling passes.
