Arizona Bound

The past couple of days have been a complete blur! We looked at over 20 houses and a few apartments while visiting Arizona last week. But, believe it or not, we found one! One that the three of us agreed upon. The others will love it as well! NO DOUBT! Pool, grill, bball court, and a veranda. Wow! I am STOKED! 

But now, back in Ohio. Reality! In a matter of weeks - I will be an official Arizonian! (ftr, I will still scream for the Bucks - even though most of the time we don't need to scream...we just win) 

One minute, I am happy with tears, and the next minute, I am sad with tears. I can't believe that this is finally happening!

I am trying to stay positive. Look at the great things that are to come. Example - there is a freakin' BIKE TRAIL next to my house! I mean, it connects to my lot! WHAT! Oh, and I bought a yoga backpack last week. It will hold my laptop, all my other goodies, and my yoga mat. Which means, I can ride my bike to Yoga and to the coffee shop. Again, WHAT! This IS the life I have always wanted. I just didn't expect it to come so soon. Or so far away from everything I know. 

But wait, this is a good thing. I have to stay positive and keep my head high! My family and friends will visit. If I get too homesick, it's an airplane ride away! Only 3 hours and 45 minutes to fly back home! That's IT!

I can do this!
I am going to do this!
And I am going to freaking LOVE this!

My front yard view.....yes, that's a mountain - Camelback Mountain to be specific 

Today Marks a Special Day

Today was a tough start for me. My "oldest" -not by age- client's last day was today. Since I am moving across the country, he has chosen to take this summer to work on his Pelotonia Bike Ride. He is putting miles and miles in on his bike and needs to put his focus there. I had planned on being in the process of moving by June so this isn't a surprise for me. We had already discussed it weeks ago.

But still, it wasn't any easier saying good-bye. He is my friend who I will sincerely miss. We have laughed, we have cried, and we have worked very hard for his health and well-being. He is an amazing man, a true inspiration to the world, and a giver in so many ways to our community. He is a special person who I will always hold dear to my heart.

I am so very anxious to move to Arizona and get started with my new challenges but leaving my family and friends behind is probably going to be one of the toughest moments in my life.
