The Endless Day
I thought today would never end… and still it goes on… but we are finally on the precipice of a flagrant plunge and it almost feels good. Really good. The trailer is packed so tight one can literally no longer set foot in it. And yet you’d not believe how much we sold away, bartered away, gave away, threw away. And still there’s more. We have begun an infinite purging. The stuff just never ends. How many times did we feel like we were so close today, only to have an eerily similar feeling hours later. But finally… I just have to prep the trailer, hitch up the suburban and we are gone. Just like that. A vapor.
Many thanks to dad, mom, Jonathan, and Jeff and Elizabeth for their heroic feats to help us pull this off. And of course, all thanks and honor to YHWH… this departure, this timing is a miracle.
