We have most of the larger items moved. Because I felt this process might be difficult on the kids (because it already has been on me), I hired a moving team to help Glenn and I move the larger pieces of furniture. We did a lot on our own, and we certainly have bruises and scrapes as our battle scars, but we've been able to do it mostly at our own pace, and that has helped make it a little easier.
After taking a week off to go on a little vacation with one of Glenn's daughters and her family, we will return to have a moving sale. Blending two family households together, is leaving us with a double car garage full of "stuff"! Once that is done, we will tidy up the place and list it for sale. That will be the most difficult part of the process for me. "God's Acre" (the name we had secretly given it) was a dream come true for Mike and I. I was blessed to be able to live in it for almost 10 years. I pray whomever purchases it, will be blessed as deeply, and their dreams made true too.
On a positive note...the pool at Glenn's home, is just around the corner....meaning, the schedule was moved up and we are next in line. It was suppose to begin being dug last Friday...BUT....we have developed our own Arkansan swimming pool the natural way. :-) Once we get rid of standing water in the backyard, the pool process will continue. We can't wait to get all of the grandchildren together. Between the two of us, we now have 10! I think it will get a lot of use!
I had a picture I wanted to share in this post. This sweet site is just outside my new bedroom window. I have enjoyed watching this process take place during my month long moving in process. New life!!! Makes me hunger for the everlasting life God has promised to His children who believe and trust Him, beyond what they can fully understand, or feel they deserve.
Enjoy, and God bless!!
