I like to move it, move it

It's moving month! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Soon, soon, sooooooon, Cory and I will be rid of our terrible landlord situation at the Alki house. Ugh, this patience thing is finally paying off (not that I've really been terribly patient). I'm tired of whining about it, and I think peeps might be tired of hearing about it.

After much searching-much comical and annoying searching-Cory and I found a GREAT house in Greenwood and we've already started moving in. This house just feels so great--the best energy. I'm excited to be there when I get home at night. Yes, part of that is because it's new. But, the space is just so much better for us, and it's just so much more house than we had before--for LESS MONEY! I am finally feeling like I can see a light at the end of this "waiting in limbo" tunnel. Not just the obvious waiting to get into a new place, but I can feel my energy and spirits starting to lift which will just make other parts of life flow better.

I'm looking forward to this weekend when we move our furniture in and we can just spend some time geetting settled. Looking forward to the new sites and exploring Greenwood. Looking forward to seeing my Dad (who is so generously coming over with his truck to help with furniture), and my sister and nephew! Looking forward to entertaining friends and family in our new space. And so happy to be moving forward.

It's Fall--a time for changes. Here's wishing you all a season full of renewal--in whatever form is needed.

Phase shift

I've started to blog a couple of times over the last few weeks, but always either get distracted, or find that I don't really feel I have much to say, so I've stopped.

Everytime I write, I feel like I only have things to complain about, which drives me a bit batty. I'm kind of over myself right now. Yes, it's been a frustrating year, BUT, I am tired of feeling all poopy about it. Generally, life is good. It's full. It's rich. It's lovely in so many ways. And I haven't been doing a very good job of giving attention to those things in my life. I know it's okay to feel poopy, and crabby, and angry, and sad. But I feel like the things that I've been letting get inside my head, have permeated into my daily life and in turn I have become a bit stunted. I've been holding myself hostage, and it's time to get off my keister and turn this 'tude around. So I says to myself, "Enough already Mirms, enough!" Time to shift into a new phase (see how I brought that back around to the blog title. Boo. Yah.)

Today I want to give a shout out to all the super duper cool peeps in my life. It may sound trite, but I am beyond rich in my friends and family. I am so grateful to all of you for the support that just pours out of you. Day in and day out you show your love, respect and kindness for people in so many ways. Whether it's sharing a meal, lending an ear, pouring the wine, providing comic relief, or eating cupcakes. Thanks for all the kindness that you put out into the World! It's pretty darn incredible!
