Moving Out, Moving In Pt. 1
Spent the day today cleaning out the bus, and getting it feeling a bit homier. As my current plans go, I am going to spend the month of September sleeping in the bus, while remaining at my current address for the use of household amenities. This seems like it will be a good period of adjustment to my new, smaller home. I spent the rest of the day downsizing my belongings, and man it didn't go as fast as I'd thought it might. I have/had a bunch of stuff. I threw away alot of things today, bagged other stuff for the thrift store, and packed away three boxes of things that I plan to store at my parent's house hopefully. I narrowed down the books I am going to bring with me into the bus to somewhere near twenty, which I feel good about. It looks like tonight will be my last night in this room. Uncovered alot of memories today, discarding some and retaining others. That is an odd process. Especially when the memories are conjured by some object, the only object in the world that could probably conjure up that memory, and you are faced with the decision to keep it and probably run back into that memory again some day, probably on a day much like today, where you would once again be faced with the option of discarding the item, probably discarding with it the memory that it conjures in your mind. Decisions, decisions. Decisions.
