Happy New Year, everyone! I hope all of you are safe after yesterday's storm. Here in Harrisburg, we had freezing rain, followed by sub-zero temperatures starting tonight...then into the 50's by the weekend. Climate change? Oh, yes, I think so...
It has been over 3 weeks since I last posted, and it's been a wild ride. The quick move to Chris' house, followed by the second move to my new home the Saturday before Christmas. Then Christmas, New Years, lots of strange weather, and here we are!
Both moves went very well. I am now living in the small city of New Cumberland, PA. I live in a 3 bedroom ranch home with 1 other woman (actually 2). In the upstairs, the kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and side porch are common areas. My roommate, Ginger, has the living room and one bedroom as her private area, and I have the other two bedrooms. No furniture in my living room, yet, but it will get there.
There is a separate apartment in the basement, with its own kitchen, bath, etc. Lorri lives down there. We are all divorced, and within about 3 years of each other in age. Lorri and Ginger work together. They are both very nice people. Ginger is a very thoughtful roommate, and as a housewarming gift, gave me an individual teapot and teacup. Ginger drinks LOTS of tea. Last Thursday, and again on Sunday morning, the three of us sat and talked for several hours. We have a lot of fun, with many laughs.
When the weather calms down a little, I will go take pictures of New Cumberland. It is very cute, with a lot of shops and restaurants in downtown. Downtown is about 5 blocks away, down some steep hills.
I am starting to think about what I want to do with the rest of my life. The answer so far is "I'm not sure."And since I'm not sure, I clearly don't know how to get there from here. I am journaling a lot to center myself. For now, I am focusing on my new job, getting my health back together after many years of focusing on survival, and building a life for myself. Maybe the future will take care of itself?
Take care, everyone!
