I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas. We visited TV in May and fell in love with it. We put our house on the market and we sold it this last week. We are in escrow and should close in 45 days. We have a house in Lake Deaton we are interested in and should get the paperwork started tomorrow.

We have so much to do but I know it will be so worth it. I am dreading the drive from Ca. with a screaming cat but then I think of the lifestyle we will driving to and I get so excited. I can't wait to see you all.

When you get tired, stop and think,

"It's all worth it"!!!!!!

[chachacha]

very happy for you....long drive but anticipation will keep you going....maybe a little kitty tranquilizer?

[dewilson58]

Long drive, but enjoy it...........enjoy the journey. You can't imagine what is waiting for you.

I thought that Hotel California you can check out but you can never leave.
there is fantasy...then reality...then resignation to what is.

The best is yet to come!!!

Yes you have a lot to do and it can become overwhelming. Take breaks and have a few fun days in between. We wont be far behind you and were finishing up last minute packing this weekend. It was a lot of work but the pay off is sweet and its almost here. Good luck to you !

It is official we have a house in TV. We will be in Lake Deaton on Quietwoods Dr. We have only seen pictures which is totally weird but I know it will be fine. Now I am researching moving companies. When I am tired of packing I come to TOTV to give me a jump start. I can't wait to be back in TV enjoying the lifestyle there. I am trying to keep positive. One day at a time and we will be there before we know it.

Wow, quick work on the house! Congratulations and welcome in advance.

Congrats on sale and new purchase! You're in for some stress and then a lot of fun.

If your cat is typical, it will settle down within an hour or two and then be fine for the rest of the trip. I drove here with three cats -- one of whom was so bad that she would poop about 30 seconds after the car engine was started. I did give her half a tranquilizer the first leg of our journey. After that, she was very happy to sit on my daughter's lap in her halter and look out the window.

Congratulations and good luck. You may already know this but do not pay a mover anything up front. Be sure to check them out online before you hire them and be sure to get estimates in person...they come to your house and see what you have. We prefer 2 Men and a Truck. They really protect your belongings and they are polite and patient. We did not realize that there are scammers in the moving business.

I "hear" the excitement in your posts! God bless you on your travels.

While we are part timers, each and every time we go to our forever home it gets harder to leave. We do know in time we will be home forever.

TV is an incredible place.

[uprivergirl]

Woohoo another day closer to being in TV.

Cathy I never thought I would live Ca. I am a native and have never lived anywhere else, but once I saw TV I knew that was the place I want to spend my retire days.

Thank you Blessed2bntv I bet it is hard to leave TV. I know it was hard for us to leave after only 5 days there. Our town only has one grocery store and one golf course so I know we will feel like we are in heaven. I can't wait to be back in the Brownwood and other centers for the entertainment.

I can't wait to teach the TVer's how to play push poker.

smoothly.
We finally move in this Tuesday.
Hope to see you in the future.
