The emotional part is so much harder to take a count of. I'm going through almost withdrawal like symptoms, it like a general self loathing. It's a feeling of, how can I be turning 50 and starting over again, am I that much of a loser at this point in my life. When you buy a home you don't expect to ever have to move again!
Now my DW is going through a full blown grieving process. As we were loading the last few things Weds. night she was belly sobbing. I've only seen her cry like that when our mom's died. She was walking around that house say goodbye to rooms, doors and windows. As we are starting the slow process of digging out of the boxes and setting this house up, she starts to cry all over again.
Let me show y'all some pictures of what we loss.:
It's looks like a fairytale cottage straight out of a Disney story!
Y'all also have to understand that I've got to be the cheerleader, so DAD has to be the positive face on all this. It's also straining our relationship, I'm the person my DW can blame. There has to be someone with a face she can get angry at. I mean, I understand it, who else is there? Can my DW go to Washington or Wall Street or where ever else there are banking headquarters and start screaming at some faceless bureaucrat, or bank CEO? So beyond everything else I also have to be strong enough to be here for her to take it out on. I think when this is all said and done, after a year or so, I'm gonna give myself the time to have a short nervous breakdown. Ah, who am I kidding, I have to much to do for that luxury!
and we can find things to love about your new place too! One plus I can guess all ready is that there isn't any more snow?!
