DizzneeMomma’s Scary Adventure – Moving to Disney, Part IV
So the lease is signed and house keys are in hand…we’ve reached another moving milestone. This adventure is still very scary. Aside from serious family health issues in the past, this is probably the most frightening thing that has ever happened to me. And if I’ve ever needed anxiety medication in my life, it’s right now!
What exactly am I scared of? There’s a lot to do here, and it doesn’t seem to be getting done. I try to sort and pack, but life keeps happening and I venture off course…to do daily chores and run errands, to feed people and to eat, to put out small fires, converse with visitors and then there’s the matter of sleeping.
My daughter is visiting from Chicago today. Having her here will be a big help. Then tomorrow, I’m driving her back home to Chicago and will spend some time with her up there.
Saturday, I’m taking some of my unwanted treasures over to my father’s for a garage sale. And I’ll need to get ready for a small surprise going-away slumber party for my soon-to-be 8 year-old on Monday.
And I still have an entire 4-bedroom house to organize and pack before I load up my U-Haul on the 15th. Oh snap. Scary fun…but I’m ready to get over the scary and move onto the fun! Mickey Mouse, here I come!!!
Been there, done that, just figure to face hell on moving day and forget about it till then. :)
Your words are strangely reassuring. Thank you, Jud! :o)
God, I remember those days… it was so scary and confusing and such a mess. Just take it one step at a time.
I was still throwing clothes in boxes at 2am when we were supposed to drive out of the driveway at 4am.
It will get done, don’t worry – I’m waiting for you down here. =)
WHAAT? Fall of the face of the blogosphere and it looks like I missed all sorts of excitement :) Wishing you all the best for your big move!
You have many Disney lovers rooting for, and living vicarious through, you!! Hang in there, sounds like it’s going to be seriously worth it. :)
I love it! Very cool. I’ll keep reminding myself…because I feel so small and alone here. Moving a 4 bedroom house across country…basically alone. I can’t believe I’m almost there. Ready to exhale…and hear Wishes from my backyard!!!!
Thank you, Mrs! I’ve missed you. :o)
I’m almost there, Lorie! Sunday morning, I start my descent into Magic.
