The New Neighbors

This weekend was extremely exhausting, both emotionally and physically. First off, I am walking around bending over because of lower back pain. I helped my parents move a lot of furniture, and I had to dig a trench that was about 100′ long. My back hurts. We’ve been preparing for this move for a couple of weeks now, but it wasn’t until Sunday that it hit me. The house that I helped my father build… it will house a new family. I pulled into the driveway Sunday, and there were about 20 people all helping the new family move in. It felt weird to see these complete strangers moving into that house. However, as a plus, I have gained a workshop. It is still housing a lot of furniture, but it will be all mine in less than a year. My parents have only moved to some apartments about 15 minutes away, but it’s getting closer to being alone. Once they have moved away, I will be the only one left in Florida. I won’t have family anywhere near me. I think I have an aunt in Ocala, but I never talk to any of my extended family. Anyway, if you’d like to give me a back massage, just let me know :-p
