Things are going ok....my sis texted. “Can I come visit for 10 days after Easter?”

So cool...we should be able to gets lots of stuff organized and get lots of stuff gone. Step one leading eventually to moving...probably a condo. I don’t use 2/3 of the house, and adding the utilities in my name is more than I want to handle. And the #1 reason...someone to take care of all the maintenance!

I would be perfectly happy in a large studio, but will most likely look for a 2 bedroom, one for guests, and it MUST have a garage. Months down the road, but we have to start somewhere.

Cool your sister plans to visit for a few days. Sounds like y’all will be busy but it’ll be a more relaxed atmosphere this time.

Don’t blame you a bit for thinking about a condo. You have a lot more room than you need at the house and not having to deal with maintenance is a huge plus!

I hope whoever ends up with the house likes ducks. Your lil buddies will miss you.

Good morning Ma ((HUG))
That's awesome news. If we didn't have dogs, I'd be happy with a ground floor condo or a building with an elevator.
And I'm with you on the maintenance thing. I live in small house but getting tired of all that's required; inside and out.
Plus, I've been trying to convince my 85+ parents of the same thing. But you know how them "old" people are.
Of course, Mr. Beachy says we are only moving one more time, so I have to be choosy. LOL
#1 son has asked us to move into an inlaw apartment when he retires and moves to the country.
It's a waiting game now.
Good luck on the cleaning and donating and storing and sister visit.
