I lay in bed listening to the thunder and the pelting rain and I wonder... and I wonder... then I wonder if indeed I wonder too much! I can no longer deny there are millions of things on my obligation list I wish weren't there. There are many things in my denial file that now must be transferred elsewhere in my psyche because they've been discovered!
Even being the *master of my own universe* I'm still shell-shocked at what appears before me on my path of Life.
In my concerted effort to show Scotty the power of the benevolent universe (or God or gods or whathaveyou), the speed of Life's treadmill has increased more than 10x it seems. He shall begin his position as Master Controller at KTMR on September 8 (hap bir day Jojo!) and should arrive in OR circa September 5 (hap dead day grampa!). He just announced to Wumpus his departure. I stood in Yoko's shoes for a bit and was quickly assured by tipsy bandmates that more important than Scotty's music is Scotty's happiness ♥ They shall have a last hurrah bash the first weekend in Sept. Then we'll hop in our designated vehicles-- he shall head Pacific and we shall head Atlantic! I've got a line on a place for Scotty to stay in the interim, where he won't have to feel like he's imposing and yet giving a kind person the opportunity to be generous with him. The station is also willing to put him up for 3 days in a local motel. I'm sorry my tribe will mostly be in NC with me at Live and Learn, and that too is important to him... in a small way he wants to be independent and not rely on the help of others; the first week will be his opportunity to do just that before my helpers descend back home to lend their support. Mayhap a lunch at Sunnyside Up with the Ever Amazing Donna will be just what he needs to feel at home (the sushi place next door will help with his comfort as well!).
Today he is packing and purging and dissembling his life. It's sweaty, emotional work.
Today I am selling what I can at our little yardsale, hoping still to fund my new tattoo next month.
We'll be celebrating with the local homeschoolers, our Not Back to School party. I'm bringing a cake for Hayden's birthday. Scotty and Eric will have this last chance to hang out before the exodus.
What a great day! Amen.
