SPC #3 'Self Portrait as...free'

You know those moments where stress has all but taken you down? There are so many things to think about...so many things to do that haven't been done...that should have been done? And you find yourself wandering around your half-way packed house not sure what to do, or where quite to dive in? You pick something up...and then put it down. And grab for some other thing...and then put it down again in the other room?

And then a really good song comes on...and stops you where you are...and all you can do is dance?

This is me...in that moment...with Camera Obscura (the particular song is 'Let's Get Out of This Country' and I dance every time I hear it!) I was spinning around, arms flying, jumping up and down, and feeling lighter than I have in weeks.

It was a really good time... Posted by Picasa

Oh Precious! I'm SO glad you are having a few "dancing" moments. Things are crazy, but they will get better - very soon. And you'll learn to live with all the Phase 2 and Phase 3 things and make peace with them! The house is looking so good!!!

I wish I felt free right now... The stress is so thick for me right now. I need a massage and a vacation....

I'm so excited for you and your honey in your NEW HOUSE! I can only imagine how scary and overwhelming it can seem, but thank God for dancing moments and all the blessings in between.

I really love the pictures of you on your front porch - SO CUTE!
