Our house is officially up for sale!  Now I was thinking I would be elated by this, but instead I am having a lot of mixed feelings.  We have lived here for nearly 20 years and all of a sudden I am  thinking how much I am going to miss this place.  I so will miss my dear friends and my sister and her family... think that is the hardest part  about moving.


Anyhow the 4 sale sign is posted and I am going to have to  get a grip on things here.  I have to focus on the positives  like I will be nearer the kids and my dad, the weather is not as harsh etc.


We have decided if the house sells fairly quickly  Which I so doubt because houses are so not selling here, then we will for a bit live in a trailer until we get work  down island. Not going to quit here til we find something there.


We are not  planning to wait to sell this house before we buy down there, we  have our eye on a home that we quite like.  We will buy and probably live in it on weekends and holidays etc and  do some fixing up on it as we are down there.


Anyhow  a lot of good and  some bad feelings here... mostly is hard to  know I am leaving my friends and Sis.  That is a tough one.


Hugs,

At this point in time I am not sure, I would like to but then I am thinking there are so many other things I so would like to try and if I go from one job back into the same job elsewhere I will never try something new.


I think though really it is too early to tell, we have to first sell this place, get another one and

I was scared moving from Cortland County.And move 2 1/2hrs away.I had no idea the lay of the land.


It is scarey.But something you need to do to challenge your strength.
