Final stretch

We are closing the mortgage and moving to a new place this week. I have too many earthly possessions. Hurt my upper back hauling the boxes with books, so there was no yoga yesterday and today. Hopefully will be able to practice tomorrow, need it badly.
I will be back in the blogosphere after we get the internet installed in a new place (sometime next week).

Miss you all!
Alfia

Maybe you should get a massage for that sore back!! Hope you are online again soon.

xo!

Hi, Linda!!!

I am too poor for massage right now. But upper back is no big deal, it will go away soon.
I shall return! I totally miss everybody. Might spend a whole weekend, just reading blogs, trying to catch up. :)

I guess moving puts a cramp in the budget right! I had a huge reality check when I looked at Yorkville apartments & I realized I can't even afford a studio in a 'hood four avenue blocks from a subway. Doh!

The closing costs in addition to downpayment did us in. I paid for my apples with quarters yesterday. :D Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

Damn! I was like that in college. I'd get penny roll things from the bank and then collect all my change so I could get some Ben & Jerry's.

It's great to hear an update, Alfia! I have too many possessions too - that's one of the reasons I don't move out of my shoe-box-sized apartment. The other reason is similar to Boodiba's: everything in my city is so stupidly expensive. Best of luck with your move!

Ya... I could only downgrade, like to a cardboard box!

alfia said...

Thank you, Kai!

Well, ladies, since I am upgrading to a whooping number of bedrooms (2!!!), you are welcome to come and visit for as long as you want to. Please come. :)

Happy moving, Aflia! Hope it goes smoothly and that your back feels better soon.

Hi, Arturo and Joy Suzanne!
Thank you, my friends. I just want it all to be over and my life to go into the routine mode again.
Hope you are doing well!

Lots of yogis moving house these days it seems! I know the feeling... WAY too many possessions, and yet I got rid of few of them. I have a big enough place but there's still mess everywhere.

Hope your move goes well. Make the husband lift the heavy boxes!!

Dear Alfia,

Wondering how it's going with the move--good luck with it, I know how stressful it can be... Hope to see you in life and the blogosphere sometime soon!
