I, for one, love to read about people’s happiness! And you’ve reminded me of a Zen practitioner I did a number of sessions with a decade ago. He used to tell me: ‘however you are feeling now, in ten minutes time it will be in some way different. It may be better. It may be worse. It will certainly be different.’ That awareness has held me true through both the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Good luck with the boxes.
Enjoy Kendal, Emily! Such a wonderful part of the world. I'm guessing you know that Alfred Wainwright, the author of all those guides to the Fells, lived and worked in Kendal. Hunter Davies's very entertaining biography of Wainwright is well worth reading, although he comes across as a cantankerous old so and so...
Always plan for the rainy days but enjoy the sunny days. Also, 80% of my dreams are anxiety dreams. LOL. I love the ones where I’m back in high school and late for a test.
I have that one ALL THE TIME. Usually a French or History A level exam, that I have somehow neglected to study for for the entire two years, and now it's too late to cram...

What a wonderful location, enjoy the now!
Looks like a lovely place to live! As an optimist, I enjoy hearing about people's happiness. It adds to my cup.
