Wow...Where Has The Year Gone...

8 days until my retirement from the University and I am no closer to getting things decluttered than I was last March, but you know what, I really don't care.  I don't have a club to my head forcing me to get it done.  I don't have to be out of my home and since it's just me I will take my time and feel better about it than worrying about a deadline. I have Spinal Stenosis and Scoliosis in the same area and I can only work so long before standing and doing anything becomes a real problem. I really have to pace myself, otherwise it lays me up. 

I have been going through things and tossing, but there is so much to go through I will wait until family comes in to help me for some of it. 

I bought my motor home and will be getting it ready to take out on trips. It is a 35 ft. Winnebago Voyage with three slides.

Main Living Area

Pull-out can be pushed back to make more room.
 I am excited, but there is always that little niggler in the back of the mind saying "Are you sure about this?" Yes! I am sure. If I don't do it I will have failed myself. Besides it will make me a stronger person. 

These last eight months have been difficult and I find myself crying at the oddest times. Thanksgiving was especially difficult as Dave's birthday was Thanksgiving day.  The girls put a great picture of him and his favorite beer on the desert table.
 I saw it and lost it. Up until that point I had been doing pretty good, but that did me in. 

I feel like the odd man out. New feeling for me. Not sure I like it, but will have to get use to it I guess. 

Well time is a wasting and I need to get the living-room in order.  I have a Christmas tree I need to put up.  

Have a wonderful Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

See you soon out on the open road!

Happy Trails...
