My parents, brother, cousin and best friend came over today to help pack.
This morning there were just a handful of boxes packed...tonight I'm navigating my way through full boxes along most walls :)
I have moved a couple of times before and none have ever been as hard as this.
You see I decided that I really need a complete fresh start, which means leaving behind those things which might hurt if stumbled across in the new house.
So I needed to go through photos and belongings of my old life. A life that was supposed to be my happy forever. The life that took me through from teenage years to adulthood...the life that turned sour long before it ended......finished.
I ripped photos (cathartic!), sorted CDs, DVDs, books...box for me- box for him. I threw out things, kept some things...decreased objects to take to the new house and donated a car full of goods. I welled up, I sunk low but I kept.on.going!
It's getting done and the hard parts haven't been nearly as bad to get through due to my family and friends by my side.
Soon my hands will hold the keys to a new house, a new life.
But until then...more boxes need constructing and packing and more friends will be right by my side helping me through. Thank Goodness For That!
