Yippee, I finally did it!

I've been eyeing this Winnebago Outllook, 31 feet all winter and yesterday went, looked at it and knew it was mine. So I put a deposit on it conditional upon selling my house. My 2 little dogs were as happy as I was, they were running all over and smelling everything when I told them this was going to be their new home. I think they were most happy to get off the ice we'd been walking on and their little paws were pretty cold. But seriously I think they knew. Now for my house to sell. But we had a major thaw yesterday and water leaked into my basement so that's not a good thing. Must look into that tomorrow.
I recognize quite a few of you from previous forum and surely glad to have found you. Particularly shy ;) Sparkle and all her adventures. I'm not much of a talker but when I do I can get carried away. So please forgive me if I ramble on.
In past posts I have learned a lot of things from all of you but now that I'm about to step into full timing I will undoubtedly have many questions.

Wow - that's really exciting news! And, yes, I do believe our furbabies know when we are planning changes for them. Sometimes they are thrilled - sometimes not - and they let us know :)

Talk away - we love it!

Finally someone has recognised my finer qualities! :lol: Don't you dare disapear...I need you on this Forum. Seriously, all the best wishes on your future happiness in your new home, WHEN you get it, not IF. It's a wonderful life. How is the housing market in Canada? Did it slow down there too? A lot depends on what you are selling, a low to mid priced house will go fast as people are moving out of those wanna be mansions. Good luck.

I'm not sure what to call you, but WELCOME to this great group of women who love to camp, whether they have their own rig yet, or not! Congrats on your bid for your new home on wheels!

Can't wait to meet you somewhere down the road, and, in the meantime, see some pics when you learn how to post some!

cnanago -Isn't it a wonderful feeling to find "The One". Exactly how I felt when I stepped into mine. I don't full time, nor will I for quite some time (have at least 7 more years for retirement), if I do full time. I think your fur babies know it Will be their new home soon. Congrats on your new home, and here's hoping for a quick sale of your stick home. Looking forward to seeing pics in the near future. :)
