Day 22 of 40 Introspection


Next to many practicalities there are other aspects of moving houses. I wouldn’t be a psychologist when I won’t elaborate a bit on the psychological effects of this project on me. Moving houses is a job. Doing it next to other things makes it a rather stressful event, even when you want to do it. When you don’t want to but have to, it makes you reluctant (at least for a while). I didn’t want it at first because I felt comfortable in my old house. The house I found now is cheaper and slightly bigger.
Now I’ll save as much as the monthly college admission fee and that comes in handy this time.
After seeing and rejecting many houses, this house (the twelfth I was seeing) gave me the feeling that it would be worth all the work. I had my own silly reasons to take many things with me which I probably wouldn’t have done when I was loathed with money at the moment. Things I bought because I liked them and still like. However, it is easier said than done to move some things.
Another important thing to me about where to live depends on the neighborhood. The one I chose now feels good and the old one is slightly deteriorating lately. But it is possible that I used the latter as an argument to convince myself that I made the right choice.
Moving houses is a good exercise in going with the flow for me. And apparently the flow has some more challenging things in stall for me as I’ve got one new client this week and a parttime job in the lab of the university.
