The other day Steve and I looked at few more apartments at Brooksby Village.
One of them seems like it would be just right for me. It's a one bedroom with a pass through kitchen just like what I have now.
I like that set-up - it makes the area look larger and lets the natural light in.
Another highlight is that when I look out of the windows I see a beautiful courtyard which is a short walk to one of the clubhouses. If the weather is inclement I would be able to walk through the building and get to my destination.
This unit has a recessed balcony which I didn't have on my "must" list but certainly looks inviting!

This is all well and good but nothing is easy. As a matter of fact there are a number of factors that are making this purchase and sale challenging to say the least!
If it weren't for Steve and Carol I would have thrown in the towel long ago. They know I want to make this change and with their help it just might happen - sooner or later.
I hope it's sooner.
REFLECTIONS
Three years after I became a widow I put my house up for sale and moved into a condo.
Emotionally it was hard - I had to figure out where and when I was ready to make the move.
Selling the house and buying the condo went well - when I look back now - it really was a piece of cake.
This time there are many issues that have to be worked out and hopefully it will all work out in the end.
Time will tell!!
