I’ve spent the past couple of weeks sorting through our 3400 Sq Ft home, reducing my keep to a small closet of treasures – those things a mother truly can’t part with – like Coleen’s first haircut, Phillip’s art work from grammar school, his favorite stuffed bear, a lifetime of pictures…
I have about 10 small boxes to ship to the boat. I keep thinking the 10 boxes should really be 5 or maybe 3, but I’ve pared it down all I can for now. I imagine I’ll sort through it all again once onboard and take a huge pile to the Salvation Army.
I’m both excited and sad at the same time. Very excited to be headed back to the Glass Slipper to continue our journey, but said to be leaving dear friends and family. We’re planning to leave Oklahoma next week, and after a whirlwind stop in NYC and Cape Cod, we’re headed to Marathon.
