busy, busy, busy

Busy times around this house as my daughter and I try to go through things donating, selling and throwing ot things that we either broken, no longer fit, needed or wanted.  On occasion it brings tears aw we have memories associated with some of these items.  Looking forward to a new place wherever that may be.  There won't be as many reminders then.  Tomorrow marks the 24th anniversary of when my husband and I put the contract on the house.  I remember it because its also my dad's birthday.  I'm finding there are good days and bad and there's always someone who can get me to laugh and take away the sadness.  Maybe in the future I'll find that special someone again but I'm not going to rush.  After all, I have 27 years of memories to cherish.  I won't turn down a dinner date or a chance to have companionship but as far as serious relationships go I'm going slow.  I didn't rush before and I'm certainly not going to now.  I have a daughter to think about.  I'm older and hopefully wiser than I was back then.
