We've made the decision, we're ready to go, our sign is posted and we're on the move. Yep, we've decided to sell our dream home. We've been here 30 years and have spent many hours and more dollars working on this pride of ours, but we're ready to put the 'ad' on to 'venture' and start the next chapter. Something smaller beckons.
Last night when we came home from a three-hour drive of searching out houses, talking of plans, dreaming up possibilities, the words "For Sale" jumped into our headlights as we made the turn into our drive. Guess it's for real now! There was a curious lump which niggled in my belly as we spent the hour with our agent filling out forms, signing away our lives, and deciding strategy. Yes, we want to go. Yes, we are ready. But, no, we don't want to go through the listing process, the sign-on-the-lawn scenario, or yet another "Open House." (Why is it up to us to provide weekend entertainment for the lookers?)
But we have to do it. We have to do all we can to sell this house so we can start our next chapter. Hopefully this interlude will be no more than a post-it! note--not a chapter--and the sign will say Sold! in no time. Meanwhile you need to know I'm working on the grass problem--a little seed will go a long way, I hope.
