Home in the Hollow
Saying "good-bye" to the Home in the Hollow is not an easy thing to do. However, it is time. The dream about making this a house a home for myself and the Pres was a good one, however, it is time to move on and pursue new dreams. The Home in the Hollow will never be the same, not with out us. However, new owners, whoever they may be, will hopefully love it as much as we did and keep it alive.
Although it was a difficult decision to make, one of us had to face the truth...we were getting older and needed less work now that we were approaching our "golden years." Weighing the options, examining the pros and cons along the way, and shedding many tears along the way, I knew that another place was waiting.
. The Pres and I needed to be closer to family and friends and selling the house was the only way to accomplish the goal. Needing to scale back, downsize...whatever you want to call it...was another very important thing to be considered. A smaller place would be easier to clean and maintain especially considering I am a "Dolly domestic." We would find the perfect place, closer to those we love.

"We humans have a deep need to belong—to connect with others in close, supportive, intimate, caring relationships," says David Myers, who ardently believes that people need each other rather than things. "People who have such close relationships are more likely to report themselves 'very happy.'"

a house that will become a home...

I was just talking about Eckhart Tolley with someone else - I really like his philosophies.
You have a great place there and will make your next place great as well!

Can't wait to see how your journey unfolds!
i always look forward to change...new, exciting...and a little bit scary...
good luck & i hope your Hollow sells soon!
Love,Debbie:)
I know there will come a time someday that we will also have to think about this. I shudder thinking it is just around the corner. Life goes on and a house is just a house family and happiness truly are the reason for life. B
Can't wait to see your new place too!
Have a Wonderful Weekend!
PS Here's a packing tip. I tried to pack some of my breakables with towels and sheets that I wasn't using. For short moves I would put a dish towel and then a plate in a box.
