If you need help with the house, why not have a bbq and invite your friends around to help. I was lucky when I had to sort the house out when I split from my husband, I flew in from another state and had only 5 days to sort it. My friends also brought their friends around and helped me pack the house up and sort it, I sold it shortly after without having to go back. The fun side was I hadn't got a clue where anything was when I unpacked. The other good thing was some of the things I couldn't take they were interested in it, so I gave it to them. Since I was also going to a different climate, the charity shops did very well out of my clothes....something that I did regret as when I went back to a similar climate I had to buy another wardrobe, oops...

Good idea, but not sure anyone would want to wash walls and carpets with me a couple of years ago I could have put the house straight on the market, but life gets difficult and things get neglected, now I am bringing the sparkle back to myself and my house.

I think that the why is was so hard was about getting things done and making final decision for me. I feel happy I am at last getting things done and as I dont actually know where I am going to live I will need another trip back to finalise things, so the slow pace is okay, I just feel that at last I am on my way and have stopped holding back. I wont be putting house on market til beginning of spring so it will be 6 months or longer before I go, therefore I will keep plodding and just get help with somethings that I do need help with and oganise the rest as I go.

I will remember about the clothes though

Hold on I'm new to this!!! Here let me try, tell me if I did it okay

Oh my God, I am a muppet! I cant work out how to send karma and I am replying to myself! Can anyone tell me, I'll send you some karma if you do

Press the karma button on the poster you want to give it to you, not on yours, you muppet,

A few muppets have learned something important today, I'll bet

Did I do it correctly? I dont seem too good at this

Have more faith in yourself, you did it correctly.

You bet - it was blank!!!

Never mind - it's the thought that counts...

Course it was!! Karma is always blank until you have 100 posts under your belt.
