Yesterday (Wednesday) felt surreal.
Everything was normal when we woke up. Bradshaw’s toys were strewn across the floor in the front room. Some dishes sat in the sink waiting to be washed. Dustinn opened the balcony door to let in the breeze. I took a long shower.
But at 9am the movers showed up and by mid-afternoon, the apartment was barren minus a few dust bunnies blowing across the floor.
We loaded our suitcases into a taxi and said goodbye to California.
Today (Thursday) we took a one-way flight across the country. We arrived in Washington D.C. at night. And something about the thick forest; the dark, empty roads and light reflecting off the Potomac made me feel like I’d entered the Legends of Sleepy Hollow.
Bradshaw seems a little anxious sleeping in a new place but otherwise we are settled in. Dustinn will take the metro to work and we’ll live at the hotel until we find a more permanent home.
