Day 79 - Breathe

Today we made an offer an a house.  A house that needs some work on 6.5 beautiful park like acres.  A pond.  A garage apartment.

Part of me wants to act like we already have it.  We don't.  But already, even before the offer, Bob and I talked about everything we would do.  And then would catch ourselves and remind ourselves that we don't own it.

And then I would think about leaving our house and that would take my breath away.  I love our house and its character.  We have a lot of memories here.  If we leave, it will be hard.

I keep thinking its silly to have something that may or may not happen occupy so much of my thought before it happens.  At the same time, if it wasn't popping into my mind so frequently, it probably is not the right place.

So we will see what happens.  In the meantime, normal life will resume tomorrow and my attentions will be otherwise occupied, at least for the daytime.
