Life Goes On

Mom and I actually got to the house early this morning. We had the baked goods and what we needed for our final day of the sale. The sale will go on tomorrow until 1 pm, but we will be at a young ladies Wedding Shower for an upcoming Wedding early next year. This young lady is the one from the ‘Special Prayer Request’ Article I wrote a month or so ago. She is still healing from her accident, but young love doesn’t wait.

My emotions are conflicted in the idea of not being around for the last day and yet I know Mom wants me with her. This shower is important in different ways. It also feels like a precursor for something in my future, God willing.

Goodness my thoughts are everywhere today. This week has been a lot. Dealing with colds, getting invited to a book discussion, having a disagreement with my boyfriend once again which led to an over 24 hour period of silence from me and of course the sale.

My grandparents house. There are so many thoughts and emotions that come from the idea of selling their possessions and the house. Then to add to that knowing my other side of my family was a part of the crew that added to the breezeway and the garage; makes it an overly sentimental house for me.

Do houses make you sentimental?

This problem has never manifested like this before for me. Our Alsman Family home is still in our family and not likely to leave unless something major happens. Plus I don’t know the timing with Bryan there would be nothing sweeter than having a house that had so much family history for us to start out in. I just don’t have the right timing with anything. Maybe that’s the purpose for us to have something different only God knows.

Yet life goes on and we have some obstacles to overcome before the house is eventually sold. It is alone in God’s hands.
