Ok my dear ones, it is time for me to fess up 
and share my life with you all. I have been holding off as I didn't want to get the cart before the horse so to speak.
I know your probably all wondering why I am selling so much. Besides the fact that I have too much clutter, dh and I have decided that it is time for us to sell this place and move near to our dd.
You all know that I have Systemic Lupus, glaucoma and other eyes problems, and I am diabetic. I have been fighting shingles since July and am still breaking out. Since shingles are the same virus as chicken pox, they should run their course in about 14 days. Well as you can see it has been months for me. I have taken every mediciine they know to give me and still they persist and have affected the nerve endings which they tell me may never go away. I take meds for the nerons to keep them from mis-firing and also pain patches at night. Of course you all know too that I had eye surgery in Dec and Jan. In the past couple of months I have found out that the Lupus is flaring and settled in my kidneys which isn't good. All of these things have caused me to have chemical imbalance depression as well as anxiety attacks for which I am taking, more meds....SIGH....I knew I was depressed but had no idea I was having anxiety.
So.....I said all that to say that we have put a bid in on a lovely little home over in Columbia,KY three miles from our dd Lori and our four wonderful grand kids. Waa Hoo. We have never lived closer to them for 19 years as they were military and lived all over. So this will be a very special treat for us and them.
Now, comes the hard part...we are waiting to hear if they accepted our bid on the home we want over there and are frantically trying to sell our home here. I am on pins and needs and am trying to be patient and hopeful.
I want and have to downsize and declutter. While the house we are buying is more square feet than we have now, I don't want to have to take care of things as my lupus progresses.
Poor dh is trying to work full time for medical expenses and feeling guilty when he is at work and has to leave me alone and of course I feel guilty that he is working again. He retired once.
So bear with all my for sale posts. I don't know how to do ebay and I don't want to have to have a yard sale if I don't have too. It is just too much work and carrying things around. KWIM. Lord knows this ole' grey mare, aint what she use to be.
If you have read this long post thus far, you deserve a medal. Thanks for listening and understanding. Of course we will still have the board and Deed will take care of it while I am in the midst of moving.
I just wanted you all to know where I am and why I am filling up the Better to Barter Board. Thanks..
