Today was a big step in selling the house. We had the big inspection and Radon tests which passed with flying colors. The closing date is 3 April and that's not far away. We are selling the house both of us have lived in for the longest time and moving to the motor home. I've made many moves during the time when I should have been the most stable, the years my kids were growing up. It seems to me we had moved something like 14 times during my oldest daughters school years. It would be almost impossible to figure for each of the 3 now. Every move was like this one though for me. Filled with doubts and fears. I think now is even harder because of the added anxiety that pd brings to the table. Shelley is all set, full speed ahead. We will both miss the great friendships we've developed here, but we aren't getting any younger or healthier so I guess we gotta do this. We can't keep up with what this place needs and frankly we can't afford it any more. When we leave just in no house payment, no utilities, no sat tv, stuff like that we come out about 1900.00 a month ahead. Plus working pt at the KOA's which includes cable and electricity we come out about 2500.00 per month. Free stays at KOA'S when traveling to and from, hard not to do this.
But the fear of can I do the work and all. Some days it is almost impossible just to get out of bed. The fatigue is a big worry and I know for Shelley so is working with her hands. It all makes it a major adventure. Then when we are done next September we really will have no home to go to . we'll do some visiting and such. Look for a new campground, but the motor home will be home. I hope to write a book about this and the years leading to us being where we are, so many things and so many great people have brought us to this point
Getting away from winter and the cold will help us both feel better of that I have no doubt. When you're stiff and sore the cold only makes you stiffer and sorer so it's time to go. . Just stay with us here and Facebook, that way we can all stay close. Going to be a busy month, I'll write as often as I can
