the sympathetic vibration

So…. since I’ve gotten totally over stressed with not knowing what to plan for, I’ve decided on a “plan for now” that has already resulted in a much reduced level of stress. Thanks to the amazing generosity and kindness of Patti and Scott, I’m planning now to move myself, my cats and my most important belongings (i.e. clothes, pictures of family, and yarn) to their house in Columbus, Ohio…. on July 1st. They have a playroom that can become sortof a bedroom and it even has a private bath and private entrance (if I wanted to enter from the backyard, anyway).

I think this will work by starting to ship things to their home within the next 2 weeks, having Patti fly out here late in June and then help me get the cats to Ohio as carry-on luggage (this part makes me nervous, but I guess you just do it).

Some thing to figure out…

1. Still need to sell my car.
2. Carriers for the cats and how to confirm that they can fly with us (I think there is a limit to how many animals can be in the cabin each flight).
3. Book flights for myself and Patti.
4. Get storage unit out here to keep all of my household goods, etc. [I’ll give myself a reasonable time limit to determine where I’m going permanently - like maybe 4 months or something, and then move the rest of my belongings to wherever that is when I figure it out].
5. Move everything. Everything. (I haven’t moved in 4 years. I’m scared.]
6. Have an amazing summer surrounded by amazing people and stop feeling like I have such a short deadline on figuring out how to proceed with my life!

So… that’s the plan. And I’m excited about it, even though I know it will take quite a bit of work and energy to get it all finished in the next… oh… 23 days.
