Moderating My Enthusiasm
"Instead of frittering away your vibrancy with worry or distraction, realize your mind and body are inextricably united. What calms and tones up one, soothes and improves the other." --Marsha Sinetar
While I'm still very enthusiastic about Knollwood Place, my enthusiasm yesterday had me mentally hurrying myself to start living there as soon as possible. But there is a lot to do, and I don't want to stress myself too much. I will give myself the coming year to get ready.
I also realized I do not want to give up my car until there are physical reasons for me not to drive, not just financial ones.
So I will begin some lists of things to do, the order in which to do them, etc.
Right now I'm looking at the Knollwood Place menu to see what I could be choosing for dinner tonight:
March 24
Navy Bean Soup
Tossed Salad
Veal Roast
or Poached Salmon Fillets
Mashed Potatoes
Green Beans
Assorted Breads
Baked Apples
or Butterscotch Sundae
I THINK I can wait.

I'm glad that the community is turning out to be such a blessing for you. I'm sure the food can't turn out to be too bad. Salmon is pretty good. Maybe you can smuggle some spices in, in your pocket.
I'm glad to see you feeling enthusiastic about this move, that you can bring your cat, and that it will be less of a burden, financially. Congratulations on the great find.
