Moving Day is Approaching

It is amazing how much crap you can accumulate in 8 years of living in the same home!

As I am beginning the packing phase, since I am moving on Nov. 19th to a new home; I am learning we have alot of stuff.

It is a bitter sweet time for me I have also decided since this is the final phase of me realizing I am really divorced. My ex-husband and I built the home together we have lived in the past 8 years, and it is so surreal to be walking away from the home we built with the intent of never leaving. So needless to say I am very emotional on some days by knowing I am moving to a new to me home, with two kids and we don't know anyone whereas we are moving from a neighborhood that I love, and don't want to leave. But I need to be strong in hopes my children will adjust to their new home, and new life without their dad.

For now I have lots to do with packing each room in my home, and getting rid of lots of stuff too since my current home is almost 3700 sq. ft and my new house is almost 2000 sq ft. So elimination of items is in store! But also sometimes hard to do with all the centiments and items that bring back so many great memories of how my life once was.
