I am feeling snarky!!
Called to the Carpet.
We were called to the carpet tonight. Shit or get off the pot was presented. My wonderfull In-Laws have offered to front the cost of the repairs on the house so we can sell it and get the hell out of Dodge.
I am excited and absolutly terrified. If i take the offer, I have to sell the house. No matter where I move to.
I am excited.. a whole new life is before us if we have the courage to sieze it. It is terrifying. The unknown is scary and lonely. I laid in bed tonight and tried to imagine living in another house, in another state and I tried to imagine what it would look like and what first snow might be for us or the budding of spring. I couldn't conjour it up... it was foriegn to me. These were experiences I have never had ( in my adult memory ) and it wasn't coming to me.
We want so bad to get out of debt. Out of debt from everyone. No mortgage, or one so small it is not worth mentioning. No debt to family. A new car.. out right paid for. We can do all that, if we sell this home and move where real estate is 3/4 less than here. In Georgia, we can buy a gorgeous, huge, home for under $150,000. That is comepletely unheard of here. We want to be ahead of the money game. We want to have nice things and vacations and a life. We can't have it here. Not many people can.
I am greatfull for their offer and we took it. It is what is best for the family.
