As many of you know, I have big dreams which require making big plans. A huge part of that plan is selling my house. Once I had made the decision things began to roll in, including an offer. 

It seems a number of people are going to come look at the house this Saturday. I’ll admit it, I’m not a super clean freak. In fact, I’ve barely kept up with the basics. My floors need sweeping and a good mopping. My tub needs a scrub. My dishes that I’ve left in the refrigerator for too long need to be sanitized. 

Ugh. How did this happen?

I’ve been battling a sort of depression. I wouldn’t say it’s clinical, but yah, some days it’s more than just “the blues.” This happened because of a number of life changes, including the devastating loss of Wally last February.

As I said, once I seriously made the decision that I was going to live aboard a boat, things began rolling in. A few days ago, I made a firm decision on which boat I want. I even downloaded all of her pictures and made them a slide show on my laptop screen. Then suddenly appointments to see the house were being made!

It was literally a wave, which I had not fully prepared myself for. Now I need to do some serious cleaning, something that must be done for me to literally ride the wave. 

I have to admit, this is quite scary to be jumping into a dream which I have ZERO previous experience with, and simultaneously very exciting. It’s also sad that the person this dream had been created with won’t be there, that I’m doing this alone, yet I’m so proud of the research I’ve done to make such a decision that also allowed me to expand on that dream.

This baby is not only beautiful and has a lot of potential to fulfill those big dreams, but she’s very capable of riding the wave with me.

This is going to be spectacular, I just know it!
