You will have your garage door open showing all the packing boxes, etc. Be aware of the "village cruisers" looking for the new residents. Expect a knock on your door offering services and the welcome hostess, which drops off coupons and tries to set you up with more services. Don't buy off the back of a truck, no matter how great it sounds. Sleep on it.
Take your time, talk with neighbors, use this valuable resource to address any concerns or questions. Be assured what you are experiencing is not unique, over 100,000 of us have been through it, survived without too many scars, and now are having a new experience of living.
