Happy Talk.....just returned to the TV bubble last night after a week 'up North'; after a year and a half, our house up there finally sold and we closed on it yesterday. Yippeee....what a relief to finally have that done and that chapter closed out. Although I wouldn't trade the happy times we've spent here in TV for the past 18 months for anything, the uncertainty of when (and sometimes if) the house would sell was nervewracking. Fortunately, we had friends/caretakers living in it and it was not a significant financial drain to carry both houses.

So, for JohnnyM, Scottke, Ouma, Peggy D, SusanandTom, KathieI, Mikark and all the others out there trying to sell a house to get to TV, it can (and will!!) get done. Keep the faith.

Life back in the bubble is good. It felt so wonderful to return to the Villages...clean air, golf carts, friendly people, nice house, etc -- this is indeed home. I don't plan to nor want to go anywhere else til the TOTV cruise in Sept. Life is good.

Happy, Happy
