verily, I am a prophet

Back when we first started really doing the work of moving out of this house, a couple of months ago, I started prophesying about a very specific thing in a "just you wait" kind of way, and today I found out that I was right. I suppose the fact that I am totally OK (although a titch... annoyed) with the fact that our landlord is not going to sell this house after all when we move out is a sign that I am seeing God work, or something equally spiritual and holy. Seriously, this move has been good for us in a lot of ways, all kidding about boxes aside, even though it has been an utter and complete pain in the derriere for everyone concerned. We may not have decluttered a whole lot (although we are having a moving sale in ten days; y'all come on Thursday evening the 20th for a freebie preview), but at least now everything we own is organized, mentally inventoried, and boxed. Right? I can honestly say that I am very glad that we've gone to all this trouble, even though we're moving home with my parents temporarily which I swore I would never do unless it was them needing us -- even though my back will never ever be the same -- even though it happened in the dead heat of the hottest summer in a decade or so, when just being outside is hellish misery, let alone toting around boxes and furniture all the livelong day.

But I do hereby proclaim that I told you so.

You have such a gracious, lovely attitude. I am a better person for knowing you. Good luck with everything and I do hope that your back returns to normal. Or better. Goodness, that sunflower photo is gorgeous!!

OH. Um. Not only do I feel terrible for just finding this out now but I am amazed that you are OK. I would be FREAKING OUT. And moving all my stuff back in. What happened?
