Hello!
I don't know if anyone is still reading but I just wanted to explain the newest reason for such a long pause between updates.
So I don't know if most of you know, but for the past 3 years my aunt and cousin have been living with me in my home. My cousin Kyle (17) is like a brother/son to me and we have all always been very close. Anyway, my aunt has started seeing someone lately and her whole personality has changed. Long story short, tensions between mother and son have been building and things around the house haven't been great.
Yesterday (March 25)I came home from work to find my cousin in tears because my aunt had informed him that she had just leased a one bedroom apartment for herself and this new guy and that Kyle would be moving in with his dad. Oh yeah, and it would be happening this weekend (March 31).
So things in the house are quite tense right now and half of the house is packed up and things are just crazy. Kyle is really upset and so I'm going to be spending a lot of extra time with him while he settles in to a new routine (he's the kind of kid who doesn't adapt well to change and he gets very anxious). I also have to rearrange my entire house!
New furniture, pots and pans, towels, utensils, drapes and probably a million other things are all on my mind right now while we're dividing up what belongs to each of us. I've had almost everything I own in the basement and now will have to sort it out through the house. I also have to do some re-decorating since my aunt took it upon herself to take a lot of my stuff down and get rid of it! Obviously Disney will be a major player in my new look!
So that's what is going on with me right now! I hope everyone's spring is off to a good start. I'm definitely looking at it as a new beginning and hopefully a time of renewal to rebuild those family bonds. If you lovely Dis folks have any ideas or decor advice I would love to hear it!
Take care!
