Days like this make it easy to decide not to move
The thing with this move is we don't have to. There's not job at the end or insistent duties that couldn't be managed from here-especially once we get more flights out of the local airport.
It's really hard to give up a custom home.
Yeah... ( wistfully ) I left a home I'd worked on for 20 years. Spent the next seven, eight on the road, putting together my pile of shekels for retirement. Now I'm again in a house I love - but I've still got things to do on it.
ReplyDeleteA lot of my peers are downsizing, getting ready for retirement. They'll have to drag me out of here on the coroner's gurney. I'm not moving again.
We went the exact opposite of society. We left a condo situation to buy a wonderful house. We simply could not handle mean, penny-ante condo politics. We calculated all the assorted snow shovelling and yard work that age would force us to hire other hands still would be cheaper than condo fees. We love having a yard and elbow room and nuts to "downsizing"!
ReplyDeleteMy parents are downsizing. Getting old and don't need a large place they need to take care of anymore.
ReplyDeleteWe were going to downsize but aren't really planning to now. The problem is the fun space wanted is usually available with way more bedrooms than we'd ever need.
ReplyDeleteWe downsized to forest and waterfront, no subdivision, best thing we ever did. It’s just a house, as we realized, another ‘home’ is easy to make. This is our 5th.
ReplyDeleteThat's how you guys roll though Stephen Sebben we have no motivation to move. We could travel from here.
ReplyDeleteCass Morrison yup, that too is good. 😃
