A nudge from the Universe?

I’ve mentioned on and off that I would like to move house, right? I may have also added that I would give both arms and legs to head off to somewhere with a more balmy climate and have waxed lyrical about how much nicer life could be if I could pull it off, well I guess the Universe got a bit impatient with me being all talk but not a lot of action in that department because the house I’m currently renting is going up for sale and I have been asked to vacate. So now it’s going to be all action with the moving thing.

I do believe this is one of those cosmic nudges that happen when you get too used to a comfort zone and put off making any real changes, even if you have been talking about it and now, here it is! I have to pack up and move and rather than feeling disorientated, I’m seeing it as the opportunity I had to have and fully intend to take full advantage of it, so I am sourcing rentals in that coastal area I have wanted to move to for a number of years now.

It’s pretty exciting actually and I’m really looking forward to the whole thing. I’m not even put off by the prospect of packing up an entire household, daunting and tedious as that can be, because I am seeing the end result and it’s looking good!

So I’m on the hunt and while I haven’t found something as yet, I’m not too concerned as I have a three month window, and am marking time by packing up everything I am not actually using so that when the time comes I can just load it up and move it out. Nothing like a bit of forward planning and organisation to get everything off to a good start plus it will save a lot of headaches when counting down those last weeks. House moves inevitably cause headaches but if I can manage just a small ache instead of a blazing migraine, all the better, and I think getting the jump on the packing etc is the way to go here.

Might even do a bit of cull too while I’m busy with the packing. We tend to build up stuff when we down stakes in one location, even if just for a short while, so I’m pretty sure I have things tucked away in cupboards etc that don’t have to be there. In fact, I’m sure there are because I’ve been in this house for a few years now and stuff would have found it’s way in here one way or another. Beats me where it all comes from, but there you go.

So there it is! What I have been going on and on about is now a reality because this place is on the market and this is the nudge I needed to make me act and actually Move! I just have to find new digs but I don’t think I will have too much difficulty finding something that suits. The long term plan is to just buy my own place and I believe that will happen one day too. I will find the home I’ve always dreamed of, the price will be right and I’ll have the money there to pay for it and will be dancing around with joy for a least fortnight afterwards. It will happen if I really put my mind to it.

But in the meantime I am up to my ears in boxes and packing materials so that when a place comes up and I have to go, I’ll be the first to dart out the door! This is going to be great!

Thank you, Universe!
