The decision to move and down size is huge…we postponed it too long..but somewhere I got the clarity one morning awakening about a year ago. I realized that it should of been done before I was 77 years old..My husband would of stayed and complained for the rest of his life.. Our house was too big and had two many steps and we never did like the City where we had been living 22 years. And I had been flying back and forth to Mayo Clinic in Phoenix for my health care. So I bought a house in Sun City AZ first and then we started packing before we put our house on the Market for sale. Why? Because we had so much stuff to get rid of and to just go through it all, it was overwhelming… It took both of us working almost daily for two months! And we were so physically tired.. But today we are both so much happier and function better in our one level, smaller house.. I have more Friends here in Arizona then where I lived previously for 22 years..
My only regret is that we didn’t do it about 5 years earlier…
