We Bought a Ranch!
I just noticed that someone read my Inspiration post from yesterday and the one from 10/18/14. It brought me to read the post again, and to my surprise, it was about the ranch we were in escrow with last year. In the post, I was talking about how afraid I was at posting anything about it…

Sold!
We sold our house! We will be starting to move out in less than 2 weeks! We signed a lease on a little triplex in San Juan Capistrano. We’re so excited about the area and the house. Last year I blogged about our staycation and visit to San Juan Capistrano. The city has been featured…

Home Sweet Home- Where Will it Be?
We are at three years and counting to retirement. We want to sell our home and find some land and build a home or do some work on an existing home. When I say land I’m talking about 10 acres or more. We want to grow a garden and MAYBE have some animals. I’d really…

I Say Uncle…
Day 3,492 in the house selling saga… OK, we haven’t been doing this that long but it sure feels like it. Yesterday, Steve and I made the command decision to take the house off the market. Over the last month, we bought a ranch, lost a ranch, sold our house, didn’t sell our house, found…

What a Difference a Day Makes
When I woke up yesterday we were in escrow with our house, waiting to hear if we got a beach house we wanted to rent, and we had just found out our ranch may be available to us again. This morning, we are out of escrow, no need to rent a beach house, and we…

Moving Forward
I didn’t make my bed today. I’m sitting here at my computer for the first Saturday morning since we put the house on the market. It feels really good to be this relaxed. I’m drinking coffee and I’m not vacuuming. I feel like I can breathe again. We sold our house yesterday. Can you believe…

That’s pretty sad because we actually have an accepted offer and have until December 31st to sell our home here. I feel like I should be excited and planning and having dreams about…

The Truth About Adventures
Last night Alix came over to do her laundry. I love that she and her friend, Steven come over all the time. I enjoy seeing them both and it makes me feel like I have family near me. It’s cool, even if it is to do laundry. Alix was loading her clothes in the washer…
