In a perfect world it would all go...perfectly! We would list our home and the buyer would come with cash, no questions and pay to have us moved out. But we all know that the world is not perfect. At least not where I live. Of all the things my husband and I have done since we were married 50 years ago, moving has got to be the most difficult.
I remember the first apartment...the one I would still be living in because I did not know how to move. I was barely 20 years old. Now we are planning for what I hope is our final move. The house we have found is perfect and we will not get too old for it. Our condo is going to a good owner so whatever ghosts that live with us are not throwing a fit....yet. We have sorted and disposed of most of our junk already so the move should not kill us physically. Still....
There are things that I just hate to do.
It will all be fine. We are very excited to be getting a home that has no stairs. The house is the same size as our condo but it has a tiny fairy garden in the back and is landscaped front yard. I will have an office so I can continue to write for you. We will have a great room layout with no division between the kitchen and living. I will also have a desk in the kitchen. We will over look a tiny green space and our neighbors will all be retired. We will be able to walk across the street to a neighborhood with walking paths. We are within walking distance of the downtown here in Hillsboro.
It all seems good right now. The ducks are all falling into a row and, good Lord willing and the creek don't rise, we will be moving by July 26th. YIKES!!! Keep your fingers crossed for us!

- Fill out and sign forms
- Wait
- Worry
- Decide
- Work hard
- Talk about finances
- Sort
- Clean top to bottom
- Face a deadline
- Worry (again)

With the variety of choices for color, patterns, shades, and textures, a homeowner will not need much interior designing of the kitchen countertops. Being able to choose different granite shades makes it easier to pattern or tailor with the overall color motif of the home.
