What a beautiful time of restoration this is.
This morning, Ceecee and I had breakfast at Gailey’s, an old fashioned diner downtown right near our new loft. It’s become a special place for us and symbolic of our “new” marriage.
Afterward, we went over to City Utilities to get our service turned on at the new loft. It sounds silly, I suppose, but it turned out to be the highlight of my day.
See, when we separated, I was there in City Utilities when she got service in only her name on the old loft, the one where she lived by herself before I moved back in. I stood by while she said she was the only one who would be living there and that there was no one else on the account.
Today, my heart nearly burst when I stood with her at the same counter and I heard her say, “my husband,” when the lady asked her if anyone else would be living in the new place.
Once we were done there, we picked up the keys to the new place and started taking a couple of car loads of fragile stuff over. Tomorrow morning, we get the truck and do the main moving.
I don’t like moving, but this is one move I’m truly looking forward to!
