I think you're right and wish you both well. I have always loved the advice of English garden writer Christopher Lloyd who said to figure out what you really want and make sure you have plenty of it. (He was talking about gardens, but it really applies to everything.)<br /><br />BTW - a VERY BAD DAY with word verification.Thickethouse.wordpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187303460677067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-44598045197314387432013-01-17T12:52:41.676+01:002013-01-17T12:52:41.676+01:00Listening to your hearts!

That would be a step backwards and you both have been moving forward. We so relate to how you both are living your lives. We have made the best of every situation in which we found ourselves. I remember our 'big' move out west in the 70's....sold everything and lived in a van for 3 months while traveling across North America. We got to Vancouver and were the poorest we'd have ever been. But you know what? We were the happiest.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11199777195853274898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-29408796812336007202013-01-17T11:25:59.342+01:002013-01-17T11:25:59.342+01:00Judith:
