nothingness . . .

it's been over a week since i last posted. i have no news and nothing really blog worthy to post. our lives have been utter chaos in the last week. well, actually in the last 2 years, but that's another story for another time. back to the chaos at hand :
we moved our entire office to a new location - in a week, on very short notice. it was a quick decision, but one that will be better for us in more ways than one. i am now back working from home. i have to say, this time around (i used to work from home before.) is MUCH better. i am so NOT a stay at home kind of person. i'm open to that thought changing when we bring stella home . . . but right now, it's just not me. this time though, my office is in the basement which is completely separate from the house. it's easier for me to separate home from work because work is downstairs and home is upstairs. lucky for me, our basement is not scary! it's unfinished, but actually quite nice :) i think once we get everything organized and in its place i will LOVE it! i've come to terms with the fact that i am slightly OCD. so, the transition part is a little overwhelming. there is stuff EVERYWHERE. it's coming along though. the bad thing about all this is that i haven't been able to work on stella's room AT ALL. we did get glass ordered for some pictures i'm going to hand in her room, i'm picking that up today AND i'm going to call & get prices for mats. so, i just keep telling myself ONE THING AT A TIME. easier said than done though since i want it all done NOW. for those of you wondering . . . crib building is on hold and i'm keeping my mouth SHUT. till later i'll leave you with one of my favorite quotes :

for a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. but there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time stsill to be served, a debt to be paid. at last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. this perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. happiness is the way. so treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. happiness is a journey, not a destination. ~souza
