Believe it or not, today is the first day we weren't inundated with contractors. It felt good. We accomplished a lot inside the house....washer /dryer hooked up (hooray!!!), tv mounted in the bedroom and lanai, and we ate our first meal here. It sounds trivial but seemed like the beginning of the "settling" in phase. Oh, and our cart arrived! We did take it for a spin and I'm addicted. It was really fun. I will post pictures when the furniture comes and get things together a bit more.

Thank you all for your support during this life changing event. I don't think anyone really gets what it's like to live here until you are here. It is really amazing. To all of you that live here, I'm jealous that you have been having so much fun without me. And for all of you wannabes.....it's worth the time, effort, blood, sweat and tears you will put into it.

If anyone is tootling around in the Sanibel area, please stop by and introduce yourselves. Just PM me and I will give you the address. Thanks again and God bless.

I, along with many wannabe's have enjoyed following your journet. It is amazing, inspirational, and very helpful. I have taken a lot of good information from you, and others as they go from wannabe's to frogs. The enthusiasm is infectious, and makes me want to join everyone more and more each day.

All the best to you, and your husband as you settle in. Truly a dream come true!
