It Started Off So Easily

Just a few things. Plenty of room.

Then I started refinishing a dresser.

And a few bikes came.

Plus a moving truck. After that I was pretty overwhelmed.

What do you do when your dreams come true? How do you feel when you get something you’ve desperately yearned for, for years?

I sorted. I organized. I shelved. I popped anti-depressants and called my therapist.

Feelings are complicated, but the short story is I love it here, and I’m looking for a job.

Matt found a bike rack.

I touched a textile yesterday, for the actual purpose of working on it, for the first time since September. I sat in a corner with it, soaking in knits, purls, the comfort and scent of wool in a quiet room.

And I found this on the door last night. No one will get this but Matt and my mom, but that’s ok.
