Great News!! My condo sold. Yes, after 4 weeks on the market and a LOT of negotiation I have sold my condo in a cash sell. I am so excited. I am crazy confused. Yes, this is what I have planned for but I am happy, excited, scared. All emotions. I have never been without a stick/brick. I'll probably hit the road in September or October. Got to work a little more w/out encumberances to save the money I didn't get that I thought I would. I feel lucky and thankful that this has worked out so well.

Just thought I would stick my head into the room and give an update. Got so much to do now, I have to be out of here by April 21. Continue to say prayers for me.

Woo Hoo!! Although we talked last night about it, still want to say again how happy I am for you. What a journey you have already been on, and what a journey you'll begin soon! After my own life settles, I can't wait to fly and meet you somewhere! I woke this morning wondering if you even slept last night!! Cheers to you!!

CONGRATULATIONS! Such a short time on the market and in this economy! Very cool. So, I take it you're going to be a full-timer come fall? I can almost feel your excitement and nervousness, but you'll be just fine. What an adventure your life is going to become. I'm envious.

Wow.

Congratulations, I'm so happy for you! Now, will you live in the rv somewhere local
while your still working? and are you still in the process of flinging stuff out? If I was
closer, I'd sure come and help. I'm sure your overwhelmed with thoughts right now,
and emotions, but this is really a happy moment. WOOHOO!!!!

Yippeeeeee! What wonderful and exciting news. And in this housing market. I can just feel your excitement. And only a couple weeks. Are you going to move into your rv for the rest of the summer - or somewhere else? C'mon - we want all the details.

So very happy for you - can't wait to see you on the road!

That's terrific. Can't wait til hear all the details about your move. Felt very similar when we sold our place-but took no time to get used to having a mobile home. Congrats again. carold

You are right, Cedar, it will be all good. I am just abuzzzzz. It's so exciting. I put some stuff on Craigslist yesterday and by noon it was gone. The people came, brought cash and out it went. I have had garage sells, taken stuff to GW and the Rescue Mission so I'm pretty much set to go. My son will be coming up from GA on the 17th w/truck and will be taking the furniture he & GD wants, my nephew will come over and get a load and bff, Theda will come over to get the other "stuff" I can't decide what to do with and keep it for me. Whew!

Another bff, Cindy, who lives 1 mile from me and is never home has offered for me and Sedona to stay with her while I continue to work. Yeehaw! I'll probably do that and then be able to sort more and make room in Somewhere. I figure I'll hit the road in Sept, Oct or Nov. At least I'll keep up with my dream of Key West in Jan.

OMG, I am just too excited for words. I have such a support system around me. I am very fortunate.

Thanks to all the good wishes from you ladies, can't wait to meet you on the road or at least in a city near you.
