A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

I haven't posted much for quite a while as I feel midway between lives right now: I'm still technically a fulltimer yet I've got a house in Oklahoma where I'm going to be living in a few weeks. It's been difficult to figure out just exactly where I am sometimes.

Anyway, it was easier to write a couple of blog entries.

Chris, I hope you will keep posting, even though, you will be in a stick house. I have thoroughly enjoyed your travels for some time. You're keeping your r.v. aren't you? You aren't giving up your travels all together are you? Whatever is in your future, Good luck to you!!!

Change can be so hard, even when we know it's the right thing to do.
I'm sure you'll keep in touch with family and friends and I know you and Lou will find a way to see one another as often as possible.
Oklahoma is not forever !! If you get there and find it's not the right fit, you can move on to the next chapter of your life story.
I applaud your courage - it'd be easier to just stay put ! It's hard to move forward, buy you're doing it !!!
Once you get to your sweet little house and start "feathering your nest", you'll get caught up in the excitement !!
Hang tough - it'll be fine !!

after you get moved in and settled, perhaps you'll find time for a short weekend
on occasion with the rv. A little gtg perhaps when someone is going through
your area? All is good and I do hope you keep in touch.

Chris, I live in a regular house and have a part-year job. But I still get out with my camper a lot during warmer weather, so that doesn't mean you can't be here with us and post when you want to..... we would miss you if you just went "poof!" and disappeared!

No, I'm not planning to disappear in a puff of smoke. I'm keeping the MH as long as I can make the payments because, especially on this trip, I've found it a joy to drive, especially not towing the pickup. It's small enough to make a u-turn at the end of those strange, go-nowhere roads, as well as park just about anyplace. I'm enjoying the journey much more now, not needing to worry about "will I be able to turn around without unhooking?" I enjoy RVing very much; it's just the fulltiming that has started to get old.

Chris I can understand keeping the RV but not fulltiming. I know that I'd never enjoy fulltiming. I'd have to have a real home to come home to frequently as I do love my conviences like my own washer and dryer, dishwasher, full sized sink, stove, range and a toilet that I don't have to worry once I flush it! JMHO

I don't care so much about the appliances, although a full-size stove and oven will be nice. However, I miss counter space, a garden, and a place to sew and hoard fabric again. I've decided the place needs shelves in the small laundry room for a pantry instead of a washer/dryer. I'm so used to using laundromats I won't miss those appliances at all. Don't need a dishwasher. I WILL love having a tub and shower.

I'm excited for you to get back to Bartlesville and start nesting. That little house is so interesting! You know we'll want tons of pictures of how you will be making it your own. Take care!

That's right, Chris....we want to hear all about your life in your stick house....it's as interesting as your travels!

I agree that your house is so interesting that we're going to enjoy pics after you are moved in and as someone said, "nesting"... love that term.
