Moving.

Oh the joys of moving. Really raise your hand if you enjoy packing up everything you own, putting it in a truck or trailer and then taking all of it to a different house to undo everything you just did. (If you are raising your hand please put it down you probably look very silly.) Even though I am not a fan of moving I am a fan of adventures and moving can turn out to be a good one. You are able to see the meaning for the phrase "Home is wherever I'm with you." Wherever my family is that is my home. Whether its our own home, a 900square foot rental, or a yurt. Because anywhere can become a home when it is filled with laughter, smiles, family, friends, music, and anything in between. During this moving adventure my mom made a very true and profound statement about me. After helping my mom get her new mattress and box spring (by help I mean catch them from the second story balcony of our friends house and carry them to the trailer). As we drove home my Mom says "Riah most girls are dainty and girly or total tomboys but not you. You got a good dosage of sweet and dainty and pure badass." I could really see what she meant. With dad being broken and mom having a cold Jordan and I have been most of the muscle this move. We have had a lot of experience moving and know how mom likes things done so for the most part its been painless. Mady still whines and hates to move, Jordan doesn't want to give up his man cave, and I am tired physically and mentally from moving but in the end we are all excited about moving into the "little house" as it is rightly called. Let the wind blow you to your next adventure. Signing off Riah.
