Dear Cuties,

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of the suggestions you gave me in getting my house ready to sell. I had cancelled internet, so I wasn't able to respond, but was able to read your responses on my phone. The house is ready, and absolutely beautiful! The open house is tomorrow. Our agent said that already he has 8 people who are interested. The listing is only 26 hours old! I'm so excited. My son and I were working on getting things ready, and apparently I worked too hard. With two days left before it was to hit the market, I got very sick with a fever high enough that I should have been hospitalized. No other symptoms though. My daughter came in out of town, and the two of them finished the work. What a huge weight off my shoulders now. The house is still fully furnished, so we are either going to have to have an estate sale, or move it all out. It is furnished almost exclusively in antiques. The farm I had picked out as my perfect retirement location fell through, as after looking at the property three different times, I found that much of the acreage was swampy, which would or could present a serious risk for my husband. I'll keep looking. There is a perfect house out there somewhere, just waiting to be found. :) Thank you for helping me to move on from this one!!

Things ARE looking good. I'm from Texas, and my husband, from Detroit. He isn't interested in moving to the south. He cannot understand the "language" very well. :) I have to laugh about that one.

Thank you! Only half the work is done. The house still has the furniture, so we have to move and store it all, or sell it. I'm having a tough time deciding there.

Thank you very much! I hope so too. Open house was today; 40 people attended. Apparently that is very unusual.

After your efforts at preparing the house to sell I hope that it sells very quickly and you can get sorted for the next part of your plan

Well Deanna, it looks fabulous. I do hope it will sell really quickly for you and that you can find something to suit you. Will you have to rent if you don't find yourself something soon? Love Chris

This is the in-law's house that we inherited after my MIL passed away. So we have another home. I just couldn't manage two homes. BUT we have to move as well, because ours is a split level on a hill. My husband falls very often, and has tumbled on the stairs many times. I'm looking for one of the old fashioned farm houses with a single story on some acreage so he can go out and wander to his heart's content, but not get further than the fence. He has a brain degenerative disease (like Alzheimer's) and isn't safe where we are now. Having two homes was wearing me down.

It sounds as if your house is going to sell soon. I love the picture of it. Hopefully you find what you are looking for as well.
