Almost time to celebrate. Almost.

This week has been stressful.  The good news is that it looks like my parents house is going to be sold by the middle of March.  The bad news is, they need a place to live by the middle of March!  And that was falling pretty solely on my shoulders and looking a little dire.  I mean, they would have had a place to live, but not necessarily one that they would have really wanted to live in.  So it was wearing on me and it was showing.  I actually was backing the car into the garage and kind of missed.  I didn't hit the house, it wasn't that bad, but I did scrape up the back bumper on the frame inside the garage door.  Not my finest moment.  I always end up doing stupid stuff like that when I'm really stressed out.  It reminds me that I need to get my act together.  So I've been taking out most of my frustration, stress, nerves, etc on the treadmill, which has felt really good and has been helping.  Luckily yesterday somehow the stars aligned, the perfect apartment became available and it's a done deal.  Hopefully now the sale of the house just goes smoothly.  It's a little surreal because we've been working toward this goal for years now, and I have to admit that I wasn't actually sure it would ever happen.  So I'm incredibly relieved.  Time for a deep breath and a drink :)
