Seeing the light!

For the past 3 months we've been making the efforts sometimes tiring and frustrating effort to get our house ready to go up for sale. As we've been making those little completions we just never got to, or polishe dup something we just never bothered, my husband and I both made the comment that it's funny how we never felt compelled enough to do this while actually living here but now we do for someone else?
As much as that may be true I think it also speaks to the fact that we couldn't see the forrest for the trees because so much stuff had piled up! We were like rolling stones with a ridiculous magnetic force to attract all things needed or not. Now we aren't crazy collectors or hoarders of any kind but things just add up!
Once we decluttered and scaled down it was almost as if you could see the whole family stand a little taller. I've actually walked into our backroom without that dreaded reminder of so many things left undone. I'm ready for us to get our first home together sold and move on to new memories and dreams. I hope that we have infused alot of good energy into this house and it will reflect to the right buyer and we will be on our merry way! The next house...we will finsih projects and keep up. It just snowballs if you don't and then even being there is painful. No reason to save the special dishes for a special day. You're special and everyday you have on this planet is a special opportunity!
