This is the beginning of a new chapter for my hubby and I. This is the first house that we have bought together (he moved into my place before). We are a moving to a new town that neither of us have ever lived in.
The beauty of moving is leaving behind all the crap from this house. The bad neighbors. The annoying traffic. The unruly kids. The loose dogs.
But maybe it can be a chance to leave behind some other unwanted baggage as well. The unhealthy attitude. The inconsistent exercise and diet.
Maybe it's a good time to welcome in some new habits. Better dog training. Better communication. Following through on projects. Planning better.
Maybe I can stop beating myself up for the mistakes and missed opportunities of the past and focus on the potential for the future. No, I don't think this move is a magic bullet but I work better with goals and plans and this move seems to be the perfect opportunity to reset myself.
My husband has acknowledged that he needs a reset as well so we're in this together. This new chapter will undoubtedly be better than the last. The new me won't be all that different from the old me. I think she will just live up to the person that she wants to be and like herself a little more.
