There has been a 24" box sitting in my front hall since moved in to our renovated home in 2012. I have not known what do with the contents, so it has sat there. I started overlooking it, ignoring it, avoiding it. This week I finally addressed the box (which contained nothing significant - candles and candlesticks) and I knew immediately where to put them. So now the box has been emptied and removed. It feels so good to not have to look at that box any more!

This really did seem like a metaphor for what I am going thru emotionally.

I am now getting ready to go to the other side of the world for a week! I cannot wait for the adventure. My H gave up on adventures and vacations years ago. I have really missed the emotionally excitement of looking forward to a trip.
