One morning, about 10 years ago, I awoke to discover I had been afflicted with Bell's Palsy. The whole right side of my face looked like I had just suffered a stroke. Nothing worked correctly; I couldn't hear, smell, chew, nothing. Eventually I regained about 90% of my normalness, but the doctors could never really figure out what caused the palsy! After many years, the final concensus was that the whole thing was probably some sort of nerve condition brought on by stress. Funny thing though, at the time I wasn't suffering from any stress. Why bring any of this up, you ask? Because right now I am living with enough stress to cause full-body palsy in not only myself but in everyone in a three mile radius. Buying a house and moving has to be the most nerve-wracking experience in my life, thus far. It's just gotta be!
It really makes me nuts having people traipse through my house, looking at our stuff. But "YEA" we finally got a bid on it today! Of course now we have to go through the whole home inspection and closing crap. And the paperwork! Geez! The house we're going to purchase in Michigan is suppose to close on May 20th, so if everything goes without a hitch here we could possibly close on this house around the same time. That would be perfect. So, of course, it probably won't happen that way. On top of all the house stress I also have the work stress. At the moment I don't have a job lined up in Michigan. I'd hate to think of myself working at McDonald's.
I'd like to think everything will all work out for the best and that all this stress is just a temporary condition. So I think that's what I'll do...just keep telling myself that this is all just a great big adventure and everything will be great in about six weeks. Six weeks, six weeks, six weeks....
