Moving Day
The last day… the first day… all in one. Today, we’re beginning a two-day moving process. It’s been a lot of hard work, but we hope all the hard work to date will make today and tomorrow easier.
Moving is always a unique thing. Our child is not yet of the age where he’ll feel seriously disrupted. His parents, though, might. Getting used to different furniture arrangements, different kitchen cupboards, different paths to walk in the dark when the boy cries, all these things will be challenges. Well worth it, but the disorientation will last for a few weeks I’m sure.
Perhaps that all relates to why so many YA stories start with the protagonist moving… away from “comfortable, known” to “uncomfortable, scary, unknown.” Right now, the cliche is to add vampires. I’ll let you know how the neighbours look.
Your last line made me laugh out loud!
Blessings on the move – wish we were there to help, you know how much Uncle S. loves moving!
