For all of you posters who gave me advice and encouragement, I finally sold my house in the mountains of TN. It was my last real connnection to my dear husband of 42 years. It was hard saying goodbye to all of those memories but I did it! 

I am now with my daughter in Orlando and I am looking for a place in Northern Florida possibly Lake City. It has been a rough 3 years and a hard sell. Our primary residence was in Georgia as he worked there so my “stuff” is in storage and in one place waiting for me to decide the next move. Hopefully my last.

Thank you again EvOm now!

What a huge and courageous step. I not only wish you newfound JOY, but I truly admire you. And just think of what you are teaching your daughter by example. I'm impressed.

Congratulations. Better days ahead, I'm confident. 

 

Your situation is similar to mine. My pa house is on the market. DH just died in May of this year. I just hope my house sells fast. 

 

I have a condo in florida. That will be where I will go, but I'm not sure I'll stay there forever. I'm going to look in NC near my son. 

 

i wish you luck in finding a new home.
