life is really messy.
everything is off my shelves, out of my cabinets, and off the walls, except for this one poster.
which helps a bit.
the exciting (and sad and scary) news is that we are two weeks away from our move date, and i am one week away from my last day of work.
i can't remember the last time i had so many conflicting emotions going at once. i couldn't be more excited to move back home, and to no longer be a 3 hour plane away ride from my family & my closest friends. i am also so excited for the adventure of moving to a new city with ww. but even though it's my hometown, i have never lived in houston as an adult, and have become so used to living on the east coast these past eight years. i never thought i'd say this, but DC really does feel a lot like home to me. i've actually gotten used to this place, and i know i am going to miss it, and the amazing friends we have made here, more than i ever thought i would.
we have been doing our best to soak up as much of the city as possible before leaving, but the truth is that we will never be 100% ready to leave, and that's okay. in the end, i am glad to be leaving a place before i am quite ready. that way we are leaving with positive memories, rather than overstaying our time here.
so lotsa cleaning, packing, purging, farewell dinners, and crying will ensue over the next few weeks. but i know that will be followed by many new memories and adventures for me & ww, and i can't wait for that next phase of our life to begin!
