moving disorientation

Who am I again? Seriously I don't think I have been this bewildered by a move ever. It has been so exhausting emotionally and physically. On top of that I am 6 months pregnant and have hormonal upswings that need confessing quite regularly. Our chicks, are still adjusting, which I knew would play apart but maybe wanted to ignore until it actually happened. So, we have landed a big 5 blocks away from where we were and so thankful for our the new house. It is cute yet challenging. 1,075 sq feet and full of personality. We had enough toys to fill every closet in this house. So we have purged until it hurt and then purged some more. I think we bought about 30 plastic bins to put the things we wanted to keep yet had no room for. So, lets just say it's been challenging and similar to my 6 weeks experience overseas in a 3rd world country.. at times we had no hot water, no ice cubes, no internet..
The term, "rolling with it" has taken on new meaning. I feel like I can "roll" with the best of them, so it has been very challenging.I had a breaking point tonight where I just was over stepping over things, around things, just it all became a little much... an at the end of the rope tired and I think I need that downfall to reorient myself to reality. One day things will all be painted, decorated, and organized and probably still things to do.. contentment, where are you?? Come quickly!!! That is honestly my prayer these days.. patience and contentment. Big heart issues.. we all got them, right?
night for now, time to rest. Ahhh
