Default TV Here We Come
We are sooooo excited!!! Can you tell? Things are moving along so quickly. Our home sold in 2 days and we officially became homeless last Wednesday. We made a quick trip to TV last week and after 2 days, signed a sales agreement on a spec home in the Village of Sanibel. Closing the 26th of this month. The most stressful part has been sorting through 36 years of "stuff" and trying to decide what to give away, auction off, give to daughter, bring with us or dispose of in dumpster. We can't wait to begin this new chapter in our lives and meet in person the many people we have gotten to know over the last few months through TOTV.

Wow, what a whirlwind. Congrats to you. It will all be worth it. Once you get here, relax and enjoy. Setting up the new house can be done at a leisurely pace.

I'm so happy for you.

We have been in our new home for four months. We decided to rid ourselves of just about everything except taxs, art and special tokens. After reading TOTV, we realized less is more. Plus we saved so much on freight fees.

Enjoy your journey, we love it here. We live in Tamarind Grove, see yea at Publix's.
