We (me and two DDs) just downsized from a 1700 sq ft 1956 ranch w/full basement, on 0.6 acre, to an 1100 sq ft rented townhome. Made $0 (!) on the sale of the house, but the maintenance/repair/taxes...
Zoe Girl, I totally understand your sense of pride for surviving all this, on the one hand, and grief for what is lost and may not be, on the other. Sometimes we truly do try to 'take the high road'...
Sherry, I 'know' you also from Innermost House :). Again, I am so very sorry for your loss. You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you for the inspiration, flowerseverywhere. I haven't been on the forum for awhile, because I've been juggling new job, kid issues and selling my house. Now that it's actually in contract,...
Sedona has become very commercialized and crowded during the summer - bumper to bumper in town, with people trying to find parking spots or get through town. I strongly suggest staying outside the...
fidgie girl, I have Hashomoto's also - diagnosed many years ago. However, my 'aha' was around Celiac Disease, which was undiagnosed for decades. This too can be a root cause for so many other...
Hi bluesman. You'll find like-minded souls here. Several of us have read Twelve by Twelve. You could do a search if you'd like to visit the comments on it.
Yes, Gregg. My G-pins are Books, Files/Resources from my various careers (sure I'll need to access them someday!), and my children's school and art work. As I'm currently purging, re-organizing and...

Re your "Isn't it...
Glad you are back, Rob!!

Have you considered having your thyroid checked (via a TSH blood test) for hypothyroidism? It's not uncommon to get it later in life, and can contribute directly to weight gain...
So glad you found the courage to reach out, Gardenarian. I've been where you are too, and I know there is often a need (temporarily) to 'hunker down' and just survive day-to-day during the difficult...
Love this notion of organizating a little bit at a time!! It is what I've been doing as I prepare to put my house on the market, move and downsize - and now this post helps me feel much better about...
