More concretely there were touches that were missing in this house to make it feel homey. Matt’s computer was off in a dark corner and it just didnt feel right. So today Mom and I went off to look for some lamps. I have been shopping for lamps since we lived in Japan, some 4 years ago, and could never find ones that I liked. Today I found the perfect ones. I was so excited and Mom was sweet enough to gift them to me.
We got home from the store, which alone was amazing to have Mom with me…just Mom and Daughter off for a day of shopping. What some take may take for granted means the world to me. Anyways, once we got home we decorated the house with my three new lamps. I became one of those excited people that get their new house revealed, where I was jumping up and down and so full of excitement. This house, THIS HOUSE finally felt like home.
About an hour later I said to Mom before our yoga, you know what this means? I am going to get the call. She asked which call? I told her the call that says our four bedroom was ready. I then told her that I knew once I made peace with waiting and allowed this house to be home, or allowed myself to be okay, that I knew I would get the call. And I finally had that feeling.
Hours passed and we were watching a show together. I remembered that I had missed a call earlier and someone had left me a message. So I played the message on speaker. It was housing, they had called to offer us our four bedroom house.
