Stealing away to the beach and the tears did see me through. And then there was one afternoon when the Bestie and I consumed an entire bag of Tate's cookies we purchased at Boxwoods. I was both in heaven and sick from the over indulgence. <br /><br />I know moves are rough ... but that newly opened window will be an amazing journey!<br /><br />xoxo mpmThe Pink Clutchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670031289018377843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297007378564032670.post-88870604989406960652011-09-18T18:42:09.467-04:002011-09-18T18:42:09.467-04:00Relax -- your beautiful new home will await your

Maybe that goal is to only unpack and stow away two boxes but if you do it every day it will eventually get finished. It also gives you the chance to lovingly rather than hurriedly put things away. And when the whole job is done you need to give yourself a reward - perhaps something you have pinned on Pinterest! <br /><br />The glimpses you have given us of the new digs look divine. And remind yourself throughout the experience that you are as good as it gets when it comes to organization. But dangle that reward whenever needed (or the cookies beckon). *Hugs*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297007378564032670.post-57334413992680550772011-09-16T23:46:56.843-04:002011-09-16T23:46:56.843-04:00Nothing a little Hermes wool throw couldn't he...Nothing a little Hermes wool throw couldn't heal, right?

Just blame it on your culture and find a chaise longue and close those curtains.

There always comes the breaking point when that ONE thing makes is just too much. As much as I'd try to be flexable and 'mature', I would always decompensate, thankfully near the end. I used to wish I wasn't so darn capable!!! Walking away from it all for a few days is the only way I could gather myself, again. The last time we moved I couldn't find our house when I went to the grocery store for the first time. All I remember is driving up and down the same street, crying, because I couldn't remember the name of the street I was supposed to turn on....now we laugh about it. (I have no sense of direction).<br /><br />Come back when your ready, we'll miss you.
