Week 3 Random post...moving out, on, up?

I must say the media project is on the backburner for now as my life has been consumed this past week with moving from my cabin in the woods to an apartment in the city. I have spent the last 16 years here in the place I designed, helped build, landscaped, painted, plowed, chainsawed, sanded and adore. To say that it has been difficult to say good bye is an understatement of epic proportions. Of course I (and many others) tell myself that change is good, healthy, and essential for new growth. Yes I know this in my head, but my heart is stuck on my porch swing checking out the wildlife and change of seasons as I have for what seems like a lifetime. Thinking positively, I was lucky to have been able to sell it, and to people I know and am convinced will care for it as much as I have over the years. My final cabin day is this Wednesday, and then good bye to a very large part of me. I do realize that it really isn't me as my essence, creativity and love of nature, will follow me wherever I go, to the city or to my next cabin 10 years from now. What makes you you is inside, and I can rest easy knowing that I have lived up to Thoreau's quote about taking care of a patch of land, and also helping make my students lives a bit easier to in the years I spent teaching in the area. Thanks for the memories, time to create some more. gls
