Getting Rid of Blue

I'm still here.

Haven't I said that before? Hmmm. It feels like I have.

So I've been busy painting and packing and cleaning - all for the sake of getting the house in presentable shape in order for someone to like it enough to buy it. The most devastating news of all this week is that I must paint my blue room, as potential buyers might be turned off by its - well - "blueness."

Here is what it looks like currently:













And I worked so hard to coordinate the colors, curtains, etc. I *made* those curtains, btw.

At first, I cried when Poetroad broke it to me. I know - silly. But I've invested a lot into my house. Since we are moving shortly to Texas, however, it's probably good that I make a clean break with my house. Like we are "breaking up" - ending our love affair. I know - crazy. It's not the first time I've been accused of that (and it won't be the last).

Goodbye, Blue. I still love you, but we can't be together. I'll remember all of those great times we've spent together, and you'll always be in my thoughts.

I'll feel lonely without you, blue. Stay strong - for the both of us. Goodbye.

You don't have to say goodbye to Blue even though it feels like you are leaving Blue. Blue will never leave you. It was always going to have to be you doing the leaving. But I have a feeling Blue is going to follow you. He might not be up close and personal right away... watching you in the kitchen, and wrapping himself around you in the dining room or on the couch. But I know he's going to be in Texas, watching from a distance...and if you want to invite him in one day while the poet is off busy at work...I bet you could get away with it.

But who knows...maybe you will start a new affair with Blue's very hot cousin, Purple.
