That's how it feels these days as we are busily packing, trying to organize a litle bit in the process and sorting out what do we get rid of now, what do we get rid of in Columbus and what little bit do we think we will be able to keep when its time to go to Belize!
I know we are making progress but at times I look around and think - Are we going backwards?! Like today when I could barely get through the porch to get to the apartment...hmmm...where did all this 'stuff' come from?!
Moving is one of those moving experiences...
Take that for all its worth. We are finding that the constant moving of stuff into boxes is a challenge because then where in our apt. do we put the boxes? So we move them out to the porch or over to Erma Camp or anywhere...just not in the way, wherever that is! (Where is that Becki?!)
And - we are finding another very moving experience even tougher....that is saying goodbyes to such dear friends. I think that in one way, we have been so busy that it wasn't really hitting us but as this week presses in on us - we know that it will all be over far too soon. As several have called asking for a time to get together, it is so difficult to say that we are out of time! You just don't even know how hard that is! Thank you for understanding.
Huge THANK YOUs to everyone who has called, stopped by, had us over, taken us out, given us cards, and hugs and lots and lots of love and incredibly nice words!! (Gee, maybe we should have done this sooner! Just kidding!)
Please know that as we leave, it is only in body...part of our hearts will be left here with many of you...you mean so much to us now that we have traveled the same roads together.
AND...since we have 'sand in our toes' -We WILL BE BACK!!!
Love you all,
Ray & Becki
