sunday
The weekend is not technically over. Tomorrow is a holiday. Victoria Day. There is a parade which I think we will skip. I have a novel to start. Some big decisions to make. We are thinking of selling our house. Downsizing a little earlier than originally planned. But, the new place is very appealing and the harsh reality is that my back will not withstand a yard with a garden. But, we would be giving up space and... well space. The back yard and the privacy and the distance from the neighbour. I don't want to make the wrong decision. There is definitely some fear. What if? What if? And then I remember there are no guarantees in life. We can only make the decisions on what we know now. We can not predict the future. And it is just a house.

Selling and moving is such a big decision...I feel blessed in a way that we only have to decide to rent a new place to move.
Good luck in your decision-making!
I'm back on my feet again, will write shortly. Thinking of you and all those big decisions. And of your back. Be careful.
Love,
A.
I hope you are still doing the exercises for your back... if you do move don't kill yourself with the boxes okay? :)
It is a big decision... the 'what ifs' can be paralyzing and unhelpful... have you done a pros and cons list?
prayers and lots of love...
"this is not the ride I thought I was standing in line for...."
when is it ever, eh?
prayers for you my friend.
First of all, this is a lovely photograph.
I'm sure you will do what is best for you. Nothing is truly permanent and although this is sometimes a disconcerting thought, it can be comforting when making difficult decisions.
What novel are you beginning?
