35.One Girl. One Journey – Step 2 of Plan A – 2013

August – Sat in my apartment alone, Tito gone, getting my eviction notice after already deciding I wasn´t going to stay, I received a gift from the Universe. A client called me. I was the listing agent for is property. He felt that because it was empty it wasn´t selling. It needed to be furnished, to create a homey welcoming feeling. He wondered how much it would cost to stage it. I told him I´d look into, and I also mentioned that I had some furniture he could borrow until it sold – then it hit me!

August 28, 2013 – Moved into my clients house. So, I now am intentionally homeless. I decided that this was the desperation I needed to take action. Unless we are in a desperate situation – not your comfort zone – you probably won´t take action. Life changing action. So I decided that day that the day that home sold, I would make a life changing move. Where? I didn´t know. How? I didn´t know that either. Where would I put all my stuff? Didn´t know. All I knew was that change was around the corner.

I spent three and a half months in that house. That´s alot of time to think. I took a Bible Study. I drank. My little grandchildren kept me company. We had alot of sleepovers. I was very very depressed. I didn´t know which way to turn. I knew I had to change my life. I was miserable. I didn´t want to leave my family but I didn´t want my life. I didn´t want to be in the real estate industry anymore. I didn´t want to be in Ontario, but I knew I didn´t have the strength to leave my family. Especially now when they were my strength. Or were they? Maybe God was my strength. Maybe I was stronger than I thought. Probably not, but what if? What if I took off? On my own. I´d never done that before! I´d always been either with family or married. Where would I go? I was just dreaming. But, thinking about just taking off made my heart race. I felt like I´d be like Thelma & Louise – only it would be me and my cat. No, I´d never be able to just take off! I mean, who did that?? I had to be responsible and reasonable. Didn´t I?

November 19 – Got an offer on the house. Time to decide.

    little vanilla. You should peek at Yahoo’s home page and note how they write
    news headlines to get people to click. You might add a related video or
