Why no words from Carnation?
She's in the throws of moving.
Oh my, I've been so busy, anxiety has had no chance at the moment, I just haven't got time to accommodate that as well, lol.
I got the keys on Monday and I wisely gave myself a month's overlap to move in.
Just as well, because the last 5 days, I've had the whole place decorated, put in the kitchen appliances, bought curtains and shades, wardrobes and a bed. Sorted out all the utilities and in between that the current home is on the market and 5 viewings within the first few days.
I'm so stupid, I must have done too good a job of making the place attractive, I've made a rod for my own back.
I love my new place and it's coming together nicely. I'm actually excited about it and so impatient to move in and find myself just sitting in the garden for a couple of hours a day. It's small, but it makes me feel secure and safe.
It has a pretty little garden with hardly any backbone work.
I'm transferring stuff over bit by bit, so when the time comes, I can walk in and just be without panicking to get everything sorted.
I can't help wondering where the anxiety symptoms are with all the stress, hard work and dealing with stuff.
Can it be that when it comes to the crunch of an event such as this, that we find the strength and courage to get the job done?
I also can't help wondering if anxiety will hit me bad when I stop and settle down to just be again.
That I will only know when I am at that point.
I really can't get my head around it. No blurred vision, no freezing in fear, no stuttering or twisting of words , no sweats or shivering, no heavy head or brain zaps, body jolts or muscle twitching.
Yes, I am tired, mentally and physically, but I wonder whether I have been cocooning myself too much and now I have something to focus on and put my mind to, well, I seem like a completely different person.
Mr C has barely helped, even though it is his home too, but he has expressed an eagerness for a new start for the both of us.
So, in a few weeks time, we should be settled and pray I have been given a new lease of life.
