I never thought of c2 as an 'over the hill bachelor'-that's pretty funny! But I do understand the idea of each of us changing from single beings to part of a couple.
Whatever lies ahead seems more like an adventure than something to be worried or stressed or scared about. I feel calm and happy and know that all things will happen in their time. I refuse to get stressed out about this because it will be what it will be. I get the feeling that what I like about the realtor we're using, will also be what I won't like about her. She's aggressive and tenacious-which is fine if you're selling our house or bargaining for the new one. But we'll get the house ready as soon as we can and that just can't be done in a week!
Anyway, like c2 said, this couldn't happen soon enough for either of us. We belong together.

Labor pains
We're in full court press getting our properties ready to sell. All the plaster is off of the walls and ceiling in Cindy's kitchen. Next we'll be putting up sheetrock and zipping it all up.
We secured a storage facility on Saturday to move all of our excess furniture and clutter to in order to make our places more presentable for prospective buyers. With that, of course, has been a lot of packing and furniture moving. This is when the reality of our journey has hit home for me.
Packing up my dinosaur stereo and piles of LP's got me to ruminating about the changes that are underway. My current existence as an over the hill bachelor in a cheesy condo is fading away right before my brain as my environment is changed to make way for the new. I know that the next time I see this stuff, we will be married and in our new home, together at last. Our upcoming union is no longer a concept but a very real goal that we are putting a lot of physical labor into making happen. And it can't happen too soon for either of us.
