Thursday


The hurried blurr of packing and planning has melted into a kind of serene acceptance. The major pieces are in place:
utilities changed (check),
deposit and first/last rent received/lease signed (check),
boxes packed (check),
keys turned over (check),
goodbye to my horse (sniff...check),
u-haul reserved (check),
plane ticket for my boyfriend to drive above trailer (check!),
forwarding address completed (check)
Every part to this unravelling story has snapped into place so my mind is at peace, I just hope no major problems face us as we drive over 2,000 miles in the dead of winter. I can't wait to see the sun again, it has to be out there somewhere on the other side of overcast skies and 6 foot snow drifts at Steven's Pass.
The next question is... what will life look like in Oklahoma? Hmmm.... barefoot and buck-toothed? Will I be hanging my clothes from a line out front and frying bacon and grits? I doubt it will ever come to that!
