oh so many emotions


I don't know if it's that Greg and I had A/V duty in church today (we worked the software that controls the overhead song lyrics, video announcements and Powerpoint sermon notes), or that I substitute taught high school Sunday school today, or if it was the coffee with caffeine that I drank or the fact that Greg is leaving today for Tacoma and will be gone all week, or that our lives are just about to change dramatically. But my stomach is just growling and flip-flopping and sending me frequently to the bathroom.

I just kissed my husband goodbye. No matter how many times we've done this in our lives, it never gets any easier. He's been gone for a few minutes and already I miss him as if I haven't seen him for days. That is a good thing in that we've been married for over 24 years and we still have such a passion for each other. It is a bad thing in that it is not a pleasant feeling to be separated from the one you love. I am SO grieved to see him go... to say goodbye to friends, to a good mechanic, dry cleaner, attorney, financial planner, etc. But I am SO excited to be close enough to my children to have them over for dinner, and to attend the same church as they do! I get a thrill thinking about the possibilities of a new place to live, but then I look around at this house that I have loved SO much and know that I will miss it. Oh so many emotions, And there goes my stomach again.
