It is much to my relief
... to announce our house has sold. Officially. As in, the check is in the mail, paperwork, closing, negotiation, and transfer of all the bills and keys and garage door openers.
Part of me wants to cry in relief. The other is pure joy. And then of course sadness. I did love the house. Just wasn't for us anymore. As it is with a lot of life. You turn a corner and realize that maybe what you've been chasing for so long isn't exactly what is best for you. But all of that would be so melodramatic. And right now, the dramatics can all be left at the wayside.
I'm ready to party! If only I could. This baby is growing by the millisecond (seriously, my uterus just stretched another inch. I swear. Ask my waistband.). The two-home thing couldn't have ended at a better time (well unless it was last August when we actually listed the thing). And now I can spend the rest of my pre-two child days scampering around the new house getting the crib put together. Folding girl clothes. And sleeping. Glorious sleeping until I push this little watermelon into the world and I am again thrown into the sleep deprivation of newborn.
