The Waiting Game . . .

I find it quite difficult to go day by day waiting for what will happen tomorrow, or next week, or next month.  We are in a transition phase.  Well, I think that it would be more correct to say that we are in a pre-transition phase.  House up for sale; pristine cleanliness all the time; searching for that dream of a homestead or land.  We seem to be pretty level headed people ( ok, this is in my own opinion).  It doesn't seem prudent to find that dream place and have our hearts set on it before we are set free of our current obligation ( a mortgage).  Yet, it is hard not to look.  It's good to know my surroundings, I tell myself.  This is all in our master plan for our family.

#1 Be and Live Debt Free

This must first be accomplished before anything else and the sell of our home and a change of address would expedite things exponentially.  So  . . .  here we wait.  But at the same time, it would be sad of me to not live in the moment and recognize the beauty of each day.  It is so easy to let a day slip by, with really nothing accomplished or learned, having no new growth.  I don't want that for the kiddos or our family.

Isn't it wonderful that learning and growing has no sense of future.  Not really.  There is so much to learn and one can grown by leaps and bounds through the simple act of reading a magnificent book or by learning from someone that shares with us their knowledge and thoughts.  One moment . . .

So, here we wait, but while we wait for this change, we will continue to learn, explore, grow . . .
