:bigthumbsup: good luck Nonie. Someday I hope to get down to TV myself. And don't worry too much about downsizing. We did it 5 years ago when we moved to Wilmington, NC. We will do it again when we move from Putnam, CT to TV. Goodluck.

Good luck with the auction. I hope that the people who purchase your things will end up making special memories from them and cherish them as you did. For you, sweetie, just remember that this puts you one step closer to realizing your dream of living here permanently.

Good luck nonie. I molted so to speak with things with the move from Rohnert Park, CA to Palm Harbor, CA and left even more stuff in the move from Palm Harbor, CA to here in TV.


Sold a lot of my books to local used book stores in Sonoma County, CA in 1995-1996 and then donated much that survived the CA move to public libraries in the Clearwater, FL area in 2005.

Nonie, I totally understand how you feel. In 2001 we downsized to a much smaller house so there was a huge garage sale, and I cried to part with my antique treasures. Practically gave them away, and now I'm wishing I had them for my new house.

Gee, maybe I should bid on your things? Will you take an IOU?

Good luck, my friend, see you in TV soon I hope!!

Kath

Nonie,

I wish you the best.

Please be very careful not to bid on your own stuff.

Best of luck Nonie.
You will have the memories of those favorite pieces and how you enjoyed them. Nothing can take the memories away. We did it and it wasn't all that hard. Just think how someone else will be thrilled to have those special pieces.Sharing is good.
