I have been planning for this day for months and it is here.

We are on our way from California to Austin, Texas with our dogs, kids and a couple of pillows for the road.

We said goodbye to our home and I have to tell you it felt like I was saying goodbye to a person. A person who always provided for me.

The house had this unselfish relationship with me.

It always gave.

And I took it all.

I took the stars above it.

Prayers from the nights.

The sun rising from its deck.

Peace from the back yard. Comfort inside the kitchen.

Love and acceptance all around it.

Now I know it’s already giving it all to the strangers who moved into our home.

And that’s the way it is.

My bags are packed and I am about to get in the car with the girls, Eric and our dogs Gracie and Zoe.

Look for us driving across America.

While I am on the road I hope you spend some time listening to the Dear Life Podcast and know that I am always with you.

Sometimes I feel like I need to make sure you are all taken care of if I have to go somewhere.

I love you all.

With adventure and new beginnings,

Christina

    Dear Christina,
    I am one of the strangers living in and loving your home, well the in-law suite! After being here for two weeks, I met a neighbor, Karen. She spoke about you and told me about your books. We three have a common great loss. I’m looking forward to reading “Where did you go”.
    I hope it’s not to bold of me to contact you. My daughter and her family feel so very fortunate to wake up and enjoy all the house has to offer. It’s like a big hug each day! Wishing you a peaceful move and loads of good energy!????
