Making Things Work

I loved planning all the details of this transition and now I’m face to face with what doesn’t work well. How much is just the newness? I feel like a dog turning in circles before lying down. Nothing, well not much  feels comfortable.  Including writing when I don’t have any nugget to communicate.  So. I guess it’s a step by step trying to iron out the wrinkles, the bed, the chair, and then setting new patterns which hopefully will become comfortable in time. I was hoping to feel inspiration from the change but may have to settle for the doldrums   
What is working well? I like the space, love when the owl calls at night tho he’s been gone for a week or so now.  Right amount of contact with Adam et al, dogs are settling in.    New tv is lovely and the speakers sound good Not too noisy or too much light (all things I wondered about) walking to Quaker meeting feels good and I’m getting the hang of the morning walks …
What’s a little uncomfortable?  The bed feels a little too soft, not great on my back.  I haven’t gotten the hang of my new IPad keyboard and desk/chair set up but it’s too early to tell. My tv watching supposed to be “comfy chair” isn’t really comfy yet.  I’m not staying on top of my fridge/cooking/cleaning set up.  Besides the fridge being hard to see into it may just be time.    I said I needed to be uncomfortable in order to be open to New,  and now I’ve got it.   
One constant is I’m still lousy at keeping the floors clean.
