Laied awake trying to figure out what color cabinets to choose. As posted prior, I'm so confused as which to go with. I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas! Did any of you lose sleep planning your home? So much to do now in a shorter amount of time. Gosh, I can't believe it's actually coming together. My mom will be in tears....  |
I didn't have much time to lose sleep when we moved. Our home in Maine sold in 3 hours and the next thing I knew, we were on The Maine Turnpike, headed south in a Penske truck, hauling our car on a flatbed trailer! We DID make a flying trip down a few weeks earlier to pick out our lot and choose all of the options for the home....it was easy and fast. We never looked back after the one time I did, just as we were pulling out of the driveway on moving day. I will never forget our daughter standing there, sobbing and so sad to see us go. She moved to Ocala 2 1/2 years ago!! Two other children and the grandchildren all still live back in Maine. That is the only negative to our move to The Villages. We make the most of their visits to see us and we spend 2-3 months back there every summer. I wouldn't have changed anything about our decision. The best is yet to come and you WILL get through this time, which can be very stressful for some of us. Get on and enjoy the ride of your life!
