It's Moving Time

This past Tuesday, I signed a lease for a new residence for the girls and myself.  We will be moving in a few weeks.  When I was at the leasing office last Saturday and the leasing agent  asked me if I was ready to fill out the rental application, I just broke down in tears.  I didn't know where it came from because I hadn't felt like I needed to cry but apparently I did.  I have been a home owner for almost 20 years and even at one time 2 homes during that time period.   The marriage, the move, it all just came to a head.  I felt so much better after letting it all out.  My aunt was with me and she said to me, "How much water can you pour in a bucket before it starts to over flow? " Perfect analogy !

I have grown and am continuing to grow during this transition in my life.  This is the first time ever that I will have a place of my own.  The lease only has my name on it.  Yes, it is great to have the assistance of a husband but I did this on my own.  I was approved based on my credit alone!  Twenty years ago, I got married and left my mother's house and moved in with the man I thought I would be with for the rest of my life.  I never had the experience of living on my own.  I am excited to be able to experience this with my children and they are excited as well.  

When the time is right, I will be married again and purchase another home. Until that time comes, I will continue to be the best woman and mother I can be, make improvements (spiritually,physically,and mentally),stay positive and MOVE FORWARD!

  1. I am inspired by your strength and continue to pray for you and the girls as you transition forward. Stay focused and things will be great. Also it is good to shed tears at different steps on your journey. It is a release and will make you feel better afterwards. #mondawminlove
