I've accepted the challenge of reclaiming the garage space. This is no fall cleaning.. it's a Spring/Fall cleaning many times over. I got a lot done the first night and have slowed the pace since, but I'm planning on putting in a few hours tomorrow. I take deeper meanings out of things even when it's not necessary. The garage has so much stuff that was valuable to me once that isn't essential anymore. There's also plenty of things that although have a place, they simply need to be reorganized. Priorities change, but sometimes I keep an outdated list. On a lighter note, it's been a lot more fun with my helper. We've blasted music and although there's a lot of messing around, I wouldn't call it time wasted.
My helper in the garage!
Work has been solid. One day closer to bringing the sib onboard. She met some of my peeps Today and said it felt like a good atmosphere. She has orientation tomorrow, and it appears she's starting on Saturday. I'm looking forward to training her and having her meet the rest of the crew.
My brother had been making some progress post breakup. He cried over the phone and seemed to have a little bit of a breakthrough, but it didn't hold. He took her back Today, and it's such a difficult thing to accept. I know the relationship is his, but not only has it been damaging to him, it's affected all of us. As his brother, I'm torn about what to do next. It's been a couple years of escalation, but nothing we've said has gotten through to him. I think the only thing I can do is continue offering support. I believe my mom, sister, and I need to start learning to be available while also not carrying the burden all the time. He's the baby brother, but he's also an adult with his own path to take. I'll always root for him though.
On a last and brighter note, my conversations with Chelsea have been great. Great is kind of a bland word. Refreshing hits the nail better. Maybe I'm not the best at expressing gratitude in the moment, but I am truly thankful.
Until Tomorrow (Hah, that's optimistic)
