It is done. I have moved all but our bikes and a couple games that I would like from the old house. I feel both happy and sad. Happy to have a place that I own and call my home, sad to leave a small town called Midway where I have lived my last 26 years. Never venturing far from La Crosse. I have been out of La Crosse. I have been to Texas, Florida, and Boston. But my main life exists only within that 100 mile radius of La Crosse that Greya points out. I think the main reason behind it is that I prefer to feel 'safe'. Not that we can every be 100% safe but it's where I feel comfortable; better way to describe it. But now that I have basicly everything out of the old house, I'm feeling sad to be leaving Midway. I must convince myself to venture out into this world. To try new things. To not be so worried about being 'safe' and to try new things. To stop being such a pack rat and to rid myself of things that really won't help me anymore in life. To take my next new step into this world.

I think times are looking up for us. Beth is doing the PartyLite now, and I think she will love selling it as soon as she gets used to doing it. We're making a few new friends. I'm hoping to have that expensive piece of paper that says that I know what I know within the next year or two. Looking forward to the prospect of having a family in the future. I'm hoping that things just get better from now until death.

Sunday night was fun. We had Andy and his girl over. We went out for dinner, saw the northern lights, played 2 games of clue, and a few games of Worms World Party. Geoff also stopped in after he was done with work to chat with all of us. It was a good evening. I hope I get to play more games again. I think it's been a bit hard on me with not having anyone to play games with for the last few months. I miss the Friday night gaming at the in-laws or the Fri & Sat gaming of past.

It's late and I think it's time to head to bed. Talk with ya later, to whoever is listening.
