The Meltdown Begins

It’s clearly a bathrobe day.  If I am to be kind to myself I must on occasion allow myself to have one. I have opened the flood gates when I opened those boxes. I look around this house.  For so many years it has been the place we have celebrated the holidays with my in-laws. For the past four years it has been our home.  I think about the new home we will have and our need to create a new way to celebrate the holidays. I know it’s a new beginning, and that I will find a new way to create wonderful new memories, but for today I am looking back and seeing empty chairs and feeling the lose.

I decide to be kind to myself and allow myself a little more time for sorting feelings and objects.
