Dear So and So

Sometimes I wish there was a "like" button here! Ditto to what Veronica said.

Some of us are carrying heavy stuff, some of us have lighter loads at the moment, but only a few have nothing weighing on them, I bet. So here's a virtual hug to all my TE friends. You're a consistent inspiration and solace to me.

Like!

Pax and Sky King, thinking of you both during these challenging times.

[Sky King]

Wow, Now I know how special each and everyone who reads and posts to TE really is. Your kinds words really hit home for me today. Thank you. While I am excited to have ALL of my family gathering this weekend I know all of you understand the wee bit of stress that comes with that! Virtual hugs to everyone!

Dear G-d,
I am in Vermont on a bike tour. I do feel a little guilty for scheduling this on Yom Kippur, but instead of being at home and pretending to fast, going to services, and taking a bike ride, hoping that no one I know sees me, I will repent for my sins while riding in gorgeous scenery. Since it's all "already written and decreed," can you please inscribe me in the Book of Life for one more year?
Shana Tova,
Crankin

Crankin,
I would have done the same thing. Hope you Had A Happy New Year.

Well, I feel a little better.

Sky King, that was beautiful. I hope your family has a wonderful visit with your father and he is soon at peace.

MOVING DAY TODAY yippeeeeeeeeee

The actual move is complete now I just have to unpack, wait for ATT tech to show, head to old apartment to grab food from freezer and fridge. My shoulder hirts and am tired but I can see the end of the tunnel...as long as that isn't the headlights of a freight train!

[Owlie]

Oy, unpacking. (Reminds me, there are still two boxes in my living room that I need to deal with, and about 4 small ones in my bedroom. Not counting the winter clothes that I'm not unpacking for a while...)

Look after that shoulder!

[OakLeaf]

Phew.

(... and watch out for that emotional crash ... if it were me I would be having a big one in three ... two ... one ... )

[Crankin]

Good luck in your new place, Catrin.
Moving does take a lot out of you.

Yeah, both shoulders are complaining, throbbing a bit. Tomorrow is a REST day, and perhaps the next day - we shall see. I really would like to ride my bike Monday, and I am off work until Wednesday but we will see. I need to be well rested for my training group Tuesday morning.

Phew.

(... and watch out for that emotional crash ... if it were me I would be having a big one in three ... two ... one ... )

I am a bit concerned about this... I've not been able to slow down since returning to town from my mom's funeral so we will see how the next week goes. I've only had two huge stressors at the same time.

Good luck in your new place, Catrin.

I LOVE the new apartment! I hadn't realized how SMALL the last place was until now. No wonder it felt so confining! All of the boxes are unpacked outside of 3 and most of the empty boxes have been disposed of. All books are in their places (sort of) and all electronics up and running I just finished a beer and hope to get a good night's sleep!

Congratulations on the new digs, Catrin. Hope you feel all settled in soon -- moving is always unsettling for awhile -- and enjoy your new space.

Get some rest!

[Pax]

Congrats Catrin!! We just moved as well, LOVE the new place, feels like a clean slate.
