All the paintings are off the walls, our beautiful shelves have been deconstructed, every room is filled with boxes, and there's no trace of the wonderful homey vibe we've enjoyed there for two years. I've cried off and on all week. But last night we got the keys to our new apartment, and I walked in to that empty space and started planning where everything would go and suddenly felt the anticipation overshadowing the nostalgia. I hope that happens for you, too, ma'am. Matt and I have been living in a shell of our former home for a week.

I've moved lots of times, and sometimes I was excited about the move and sometimes not, but always there's this wistful moment as I walk out of the empty house or apartment, look inside for the last time and remember the life I lived there, and just before closing the door I say goodbye (yes, I actually say out loud "goodbye, apartment" or "goodbye, house"...even though I know it's not going to answer it just feels like the thing to do.) Anyway, I know your new apartment will soon be filled with memories too. It just takes some time to adjust. I agree, moving can be very hard.

We want to hold onto certain memories, even if they are shattered and one dimensional, not showing the true moment of the memories. I have been purging my life of pictures, letters, etc from the past and it's hard. So good for your strongpants! That’s one of the hardest things to do, to throw away memories from the past.
