Well guys,,, we are finally MOVING to TV!
This Friday we will head out early, early in the AM for TV.
Hubs will drive the big Penske, and I'll follow in his car.
We have already drove one Penske down and my car, in Jan. after we bought our villa.
And altho I am constantly told I am taking too much, I CAN"T HELP IT!
I HAVE to have all my crafts stuff, faux paint stuff, and sewing gear...
And I DID get rid of way more than half of our stuff.
We will stay in our villa temporarily,then will move into the designer (gardenia), that we are purchasing in Virginia Trace. Our house here in NC closes the 18th, then the gardenia closes the 25th. The gardenia owners are graciously allowing us to store our furniture in the garage for the 2 or so weeks til the closing, so we won't have to move it twice.
Hubs will only be in TV for 10 days this time. He won't officially retire til the end of Sept, tho they are trying to talk him into an extra month.
I will be a busy bee working on 2 places at once. Getting the villa ready to rent, and unpacking boxes in the new house once it closes.
I won't be moving furniture in by myself (at least nothing big), but can get the kitchen, closets, bathrooms, etc., done. And maybe do some painting...
Am considering trying to do a 'knock-down' on that popcorn ceiling while it's empty.
I'm bringing my Little Giant ladder,,, much to my husbands disapproval.
Does anyone have an experience or opinion to share about doing their ceiling?
Anyway,,, we are very excited!!! Tho I will be kinda stressed, til both closings are done...
Hubby says I worry needlessly, but that's my nature I guess...
Anyway, will look forward to seeing you guys at the August luncheon, as a full timer!!! 040
