Eli never got to the "can't-smell" stage and I don't think Billy will
either.
I'm so glad you didn't get burned out!
From now through I-don't-know-when I'll be very busy getting moved and
settled into my house in town. The deal closed Thursday the 5th, lots of
things went wrong and instead of feeling like celebrating I felt like I'd
been hit by a Mack truck. I felt very bad for the next week but am starting
to get over it and be excited about the upcoming move.

Congratulations!! Lots of things ALWAYS go wrong in a real estate
transaction. Every single time we have bought/sold it always did
anyway. You just gotta roll with it. REaltors ought to tell people to
expect it!!

Purrs for Billy. I've always heard that buying a house usually causes
the same amount of stress as a death. I don't think it is too uncomon
to feel as you do. Purrs for an easy successful move. The best thing
about a move is you get rid of a lot of stuff that you do not need!

Purrs for Billy and purrs for a successful move. Even when there are no
problems it's still stressful, hopefully the move will soon be just a
memory.

I'm so glad you were able to get the house! That's just great and I'm
sure you'll be much happier there. I can commiserate about the stress
of closing the deal and stuff going wrong. I now figure it's
inevitable. Frustrating though! But I'm so glad it all worked out in
the end and you can move.

I so hate it when any of my on-line friends and acquaintances
are moving and I'm too far away to offer a hand or a vehicle.
Hope things go well for you.

When my sister first started nursing she moved arround quite a lot, I
normally helped. When she moved from England to Arkansas, I said I won't be
helping you move again for a while. I year later I went to visit her, she
moved during the visit, so the hire car made several trips filled to the
roof with her things.

>From England to Arkansas! Besides not even being able to imagine taking
on such a move, that is quite a culture shock! How did they like
Arkansas?
We haven't moved very much. The last time it was awful. DH said if
there is a next time we will leave the piano where it sits and buy
another one!! LOL

My sister has always been single. I think she was happy in Arkansas, but she
moved around a lot when she was in the USA. Inluding Hawaii, California,
Florida and Louisiana. Which meant taking the state's final nursing exam
each time she moved. She's been back in England for about 10 years, most of
that time she's lived in Bristol.
