Oh my Gawd! My heart has just fallen into the pit of my stomach and feels like it is melting. The seahorses are gone. We delivered them to their new home today. I just want to cry. We've known this was coming. We are moving to France very soon. We need to start looking for renters for the house in Sept. We've started packing and I've had an upscale consignment store come price all of our furniture. They'll come take it all away in a couple of weeks. But that's all just stuff. I love my stuff, but it is still just things. My heart isn't tied up in them. Those changes have put it right in front of my face....we're leaving. Life is changing fast. But this...OMG this hurts. I just want to cry. The tank is barren and empty. No little guys joyfully wiggling around to say hello. No more sweet snicks good morning. No more of Rocky's showing off, or Jacqualine's (the cleaner shrimp's) pranks. How the heck did we get so attached to our FISH?!!!! I must be nuts. But the tank is the center point of our house, and now the house feels so different. Now, I have to face it. As exciting as this move is going to be, it will present huge challenges for us. And the journey has begun.
