grace in small things: the storage and food edition

today’s random mind training reminder was “A deep and quiet joy is always present when your internal peace is such that you aren’t disturbed or thrown into confusion by events in the world or by your own thoughts and feelings.”
obviously, i’m still working on it. still thrown into confusion by my thoughts. yesterday i decided that confusion or no, i was going to get started. step 0.5: rent a larger storage space. i wasn’t looking forward to it: more money out when i have so much less coming in. it didn’t seem like a sound financial decision but how else could i get the house in shape for appraisal and market? so, i prayed it wouldn’t be for long and headed down to the storage place where i found out that renting storage space on the second floor is MUCH less expensive than renting on the first.
☕ i got twice the storage space for ≈$10 more
☕ garma helped me move most of my stuff from the old to the new before she had to go to work
☕ i got the whole move between storage spaces completed in one day (including sweeping out the old one)
☕ lunch with mo
☕ evening drinks and dinner with tim
☕ tamarindo margarita – yum!
