Well, we've finally moved. We have been in our new, old, house for three weeks now. It is beginning to feel more comfortable. I am finding that having people over for meals and tea and coffee helps to create the feeling of it being a "home" and not just a "house." We've done a lot of lasts and a lot of firsts since we moved. The saddest is that we lost our beloved little kitty cat, Salem, two weeks after we moved. She got out one night and has yet to return. I keep looking for her and calling her but she is nowhere to be seen. The best is that we live very close to a large lake now and it only takes 5 minutes to walk there...so, walking is much more interesting now. Oh, and the fact that my husband has a five minute commute, by foot, if he walks slowly to his firehall. So, we got to thinking the other day, that, with all the firsts and lasts going on, we should have a ceremony of celebration. We are going to write down all the losses, even if they were good ones, and all the new things, even if they are bad ones, and then put them into a fire and burn them up. Then, we will cleanse the area with sage, to begin anew.
It's all about change and renewal and growth....
