Snowball Gathering Speed or A Snowball Chance in Hell?

 Snowball Gathering Speed or A Snowballs Chance in Hell? 

Many people start the New Year making resolutions that are quickly forgotten and ignored.  So rather than resolutions I am focusing on goals.  I know, just semantics, but goals are things I work toward not just an end results.





Yep, my number one goal is to sell my house and hit the road... Are you getting tired of me saying that???  (Yet I'm still here!!)  I am making progress but it is a bigger job than this body has been able to muster! I was certainly siderailed by the broken leg but I'm feeling stronger every day. 

I just want to restate it here to remind myself that I am going to leave this house and begin my travel adventures and it THIS is the year!! 

 Here is what I have done
  • Massive de-cluttering (Read donate/ give away/ through away)
  • Huge garage sale (I probably won't do that again!)
  • Found homes for most of the farm animals (one horse, 2 donkeys left)
  • Traveled in longer periods of time exploring new areas in the northwest
  •  Continue to learn every thing I can about
  • BLOGGED 66 entries!!
I have never had the discipline to even keep a diary longer than a few days.  I am so excited that I have managed to be faithful to the blog.  I realize that it is due to you the readers and the comments that you have left for me that have encouraged me to continue along the path and live my dreams.

Thank-you SO much for your support and following my ramblings!

Here is some of the things I will be focusing on till I'm out of here
  • I will be continuing the de-cluttering  until I am out of here!
  • Staging rooms for the selling process, as the listing the house is the next step.
  • Sell some larger items via Craigs List
  • Continue to improve condition of house
I am having several larger items done to the house in the next couple of weeks as a step to enhance the saleability of the house.  Next week I'm having  a natural gas line installed.  Then comes a new natural gas furnace.  The furnace was delivered last week and will be installed once the line is in.

A plumber to fix some minor plumbing issues.

An electrician to update a couple of fixtures and electrical issues. 

Continue weekly trips to the dump and donation piles.
