I’ll go first…
I just lost more than 3000 pounds and you can too!
We’ve entered a new chapter having formally decamped from our “home.” It was sad and strange to be living in the place while dismantling all we had built inside it; however, it was still familiar. The hotel has helped the moving abroad part actually feel real, although I will note we can literally see our house out the window. Still, seeing our home completely empty and walking away from it for the last time was powerful, while this morning’s remote online notary appointment was (dare I say) energizing.
After weeks of flurried, harried activity, we have reached the stillness before the big leap tomorrow and are snuggled up together in a studio hotel suite comparing the shocking difference in temperature between Minnesota and Zuid-Holland — even in celsius, 9 beats -7.
Of all the hard parts, I didn’t expect selling the car to have any emotional attachment; however, if I’ve learned anything from the insane process of moving to another country in less than three months, it’s that you can’t predict the things that are going to send you reeling…
