Overwhelmed….

After such a wonderful, fun-filled time at the quilting retreat, live has happened and I am beginning to feel very overwhelmed.

I have sold the house that my late husband built in Maryland and have been in the process of going through things that were accumulated over the last 20 years.  Yikes!  That is a lot of stuff.  I have managed to eliminate some stuff and only bring in the things that I need to find places for.  And I was really thinking that it would be very simple to complete the task as I was leaving most of the furniture in the house.

I met with the buyers this past weekend.  My BFF Marji and her husband were at the house with me to give me some support and help me pack up more stuff.  During the tour with the man who is buying the place and his father, the wife stayed inside and spoke to Marji.  Later in the day, Marji mentioned that they did not need any of the stuff left as they had furniture that they were going to use.

So, now I am thinking totally differently and wondering what I can get rid of in this house and replace it with some of the stuff from Maryland.  I still need to verify the furniture need of the buyer, but just thinking about also moving all of the furniture has my senses and emotions overwhelmed. 

But I will find a way to make it happen.  Thank goodness this family is not in a big hurry to go to settlement!
