Friday Belcourt and Red Roofs

This past Friday night was interesting to say the least, I was off all day and did more exploring and found new areas once again in Nashville. Hillsboro village. For my evening I ended up going to a movie premier of a film called Mr. Lonely Directed by Harmony Korine.It was at an awesome place called the Belcourt Theatre. The place was packed out and I got the second to last ticket. The movie was excellent and Mr. Korine stayed after to do a Q and A about the film. The remainder of my evening did not go as well. I drove around for about thirty minutes searching for a hotel that was inexpensive and safe from bombs, guns hookers, etc. Well there aparently is no middle ground. I ended up at red roof in for around 60 bucks. Not a good price for a not good hotel. I survived the night nevertheless.

STILL HOMELESS!

So its been three weeks and I still havent closed on my house! I am stressed and frustrated. My last day at my job of three years is next Saturday so I am excited for that and ready for everything to get going. Im loving Nashville but its hard to enjoy it in between jobs and homeless! Soon Soon

Confused

I am so anxious, uneasy, unsure, and freaked out right now. I wont go into detail but I dont know what to do! Dunno if I made the right decision; enough said

Goodbye Chattanooga

After five hours of packing, loading, and two hours of driving I arrived last night at my temporary move location. Things went fairly well and everything is in storage waiting for me to close on my house and then do it all again. Thrilling! I am exhausted and doing my best to focus on the tasks ahead. This week will be interesting to say the least. Living out of suitcases,a whole lot of HGTV, and new employement.  Thankfully the house I am staying in until I close is nothing short of a mansion! I am very fortunate and grateful to have somewhere to stay during a difficult transition. Hold on here we go!!!

I am a Home Owner? Hopefully!

Well the search ended yesterday! I finally found a house and got it! Here is a look at my new back yard. The house is in Inglewood, East Nashville in a fast growing area about 5 minutes from 5 points and downtown!  Now the inspection,closing,etc. I feel alot more comfortable with my move and am getting anxious to dig in and fix it up! I move on Saturday and its gonna be a stressful week of packing (I should be doing that right now), working, and goodbyes. 

Nostalgic

Lying in my bed I am flooded with a thousand memories of the life I am leaving behind. The friends I have made I hope will last a lifetime. Memories seem to fade after time but I hope that I can preserve each one I have made here. They play so vividly right now like motion picture.  I hope that my name and impact will not be forgotten. I will return one day I feel that. When I don't know, or for what. I hope to start a new life and have a fresh start. I have moved so much in my life that I feel change is a necessary part of stability. Who knows what my new life will bring. Excited and scared I don't know what the next couple years hold. I cant just hover here any longer. Sometimes  the value of something  isn't seen until it is gone. We shall see if that happens to the people I leave or to me. I will miss alot of things here, especially last summer Mudpie, Northshore Grille, Arethas, Rembrandts, JJs Bohemia, Coolidge Park,my stupid job and yes Standifer Place. To many good and bad times to write or express. Maybe someday I will settle somewhere. Until then I must keep looking

Reelaaax

Slow deep breaths, deepen thoughts. I quiet myself and empty out everything that has filled my mind. This is impossible for me. My mind is constantly analyzing,reflecting,racing,planning and worrying. There is no shut off button for my mind, but for now Ill let spring bring quiet anticipation.
