As long as it doesn't "moo" when you cut into it.

Yours sounds like OUR countdown! Too long!

EVERYONE who has been through this warned us that we'll need every last second and time will fly. Boy, were they right! Not so long ago our retirement was a distant glimmer, now it's on top of us. We still need to declutter our home of 30 years, sell it, buy/build in Florida, relocate, finishing touches on finances, drag my butt into a job I'm leaving in 2 years everyday. So much todo, so little time. It'll be time to move before you know it! Good Luck!!!

It's not insurmountable, we're pulling it off in a span of 5 weeks. Hectic? You betcha! But doable? Absolutely! But, I'm already retired so I've been able to spend a lot of time on things while my better half still is working full time. I just refused to touch her jewelry making supplies or clothes.

I don't know how you guys are doing it, even if I didn't have to work everyday, I'd still have a problem buttoning up in a year let alone in a month!

As a number of you know, we owe a LOT to finding this board!! For starters, the great friends Harbor Hopper and his lovely wife, we stay with them every time we come down, SoFlGal, who showed us around PC and handled the purchase of our lot for us, Big House and his wonderful wife, who we also see when we're in PG at the same time, and mr.sunshine, who will be building our house!!!
Virginia, we feel your pain. We're finally under 1000 days now, and are starting to clean out the basement in preparation for moving too. We're also working on our house, got hardwood floors in the living room over the weekend, in preparation for putting it on the market. It'll happen...SOMEDAY!!
Thanks to whoever I should thank for us finding this board, and therefore all our friends!!
