The last couple of days were monumentally weird for me.
1. moved my mom and mckenzie. it is just odd realizing for real that your mom and sister, who you haven't cohabitated in the same town with in years, live 5-7 minutes from your house. i know it has been like this for months now, but i think moving them-transitioning them into another place, knowing they aren't going anywhere for a while is so permanent, so comforting, so weird.
2. sister jo moved to ny. nostalgic because i did that not too long ago. nostaglic because i thought when she moved there i would be there too. nostalgic because she sounds like she is having all the fun i miss so much. (not that i don't have fun,i do! just not nyc kind of fun). nostalgic because she is my little sister and she is clearly growing up.
3. katie, reese and myself are trying to revolutionize norman (ok,revolutionize? that might be too big of a word) but we are trying get a modern day craft fair going. and although we have been working (and working hard i might add) for a couple of months now it all of the sudden feels like it is around the corner... minutes from actually happening, yes i said happening which is the key word here. it was so weird because yesterday it hit me that it is ACTUALLY HAPPENING. of course this is what we have been hoping and working for but yesterday for whatever reason i realized it is a reality. less than 3 months from now i will be waking up at the butt crack of dawn to make this thing happen. and hopefully it will become something we do more than once a year!
4. my car broke. stupid piece of...i guess i should have seen this coming. i knew it was cursed. maybe i shouldn't be writing this here because i am trying to sell it but who really reads this anyway??? no one that would want to buy my car. i think that whatever is wrong is probably the key issue when i get this fixed i can how a sound mind about selling it. but i did just fail to mention that the second i decided to truley try and sell it - things started disappearing off it, hitting it or breaking on it.
although it might seem like it and i am exhausted - i am, in fact, super happy right now. the dustbowl thing is encouraging me to do more things creatively. it is also giving me a great sense of accomplishment which is so important. plus seth is amazing. and petra slept curled up in the crook of my legs for most of last night.
