Sunday Funday in July

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with House to Home, Inc. - Denver Real Estate - 720-231-6373 DRE# ER40011786

Back from vacation, had a closing and now back into the swing of things!

Only a couple of months before leaving for Europe, and know for sure whether I will move to Portugal or not.  But in any case, have a few things to sell that I won't need.   I put things on Facebook Marketplace, which was WAY scary, as having anyone coming to my house is ALWAYS scary.   I do have pepper spray just in case!   I have a list of things that need to be sold, but many items need to be here when shown for staging.

I still have several things to do, so worked on some this weekend.

I was able to watch a couple of movies - and one was more worthy of talking about.

Navigating the Heart with Jacklyn Smith was really good.   I guess I was thinking while watching that we all need to take the path that really calls us.   What we THINK is the path may not be, and could be completely opposite.   I truly enjoyed this movie as I love to fish, and cannot imagine living in NYC.    It was a good movie, and was based on an autobiography.

It is Sunday, and should share some funnies - 

I SO have this skill!

Happy Sunday, and so enjoy this beautiful day!

Hi Joan... living in NY City is the bomb! Well, it was the bomb. I don't know about these days with all the craziness there.

Such an exciting time for you. I think Portugal 🇵🇹 will be an awesome adventure!

Joan - it sounds like you are having a good time preparing for a potential move. You will know what to do when the time comes.  Loved the cartoons!  Keep posting.

I think it is an adventure you will regret if you do not try it.  Nothing says you can't just make it a long vacation, instead of thinking of it as a permanent move.  In this case I think you can always just come home when you are ready.

Hi Joan,
You are wise to take a test run. I have a friend who sold her home and moved to another state, thinking she had found a place she loved. It wasn't but a few months and she was back and had to buy another home. It was an expensive experience for her.

Hello Joan - ah, life as a real estate practitioner would seem to get a pass to the head of the class for the stress test.  Just sayin'.   Good luck as you continue your thoughts of moving.

If you are rethinking the move to Portugal, you may just want to take a vacation there for about a month. Listen to your inner voice, the planned move may not be the best.  Just keep traveling to different places, and you always have a home to come to.

Good morning Joan.After years in the real estate business in various niches, stress in retirement comes easy, I don't allow it. As for choking on air, falling up stairs and tripping over nothing I can describe myself as a work in progress. No progress so far but time may weaken my strength to avoid it. Enjoy your day.

Joan- you are truly on the move!  Are the items you're selling large as in furniture??? We've sold smaller items and met people in front of the grocery store. Best of luck!
