Glad things are going well!
I don't want to rent it because of the hassle.
Yeah, ask him to tell you how well it worked out, him renting his cabin...

Good luck, Robert. Everything you own tends also to own you, so the simplification process should pay lots of dividends. My best to Vickie, too!

It sounds like something that will work out for you. I expect that since you've had a store front for a long time, you have a clientele that will follow you wherever you go.

The Lord has promised to provide for you. That doesn't mean he will give you what you want, but he will give you what you NEED. It sounds as if this is what you and your lovely wife NEED at this point.

I'm thrilled for you.

about 90% of the shop is home now and I am getting excited. The shop will open for business next Wednesday. One thing I didn't count on was everything being so HEAVY. My back didn't need the extra stress. I had some good friends helping me. You know who your true friends are when you ask for help. My close friend, an African American showed up first thing this morning after working all night cleaning movie theaters. And the other was a young man that buys old toys from. Other so called friends were a no show.

Post a sign on the commercial building of your relocation until it is sold or rented. Maybe you already have.

I wouldn't worry about it Robert. I'm sure the lazy son of a gun you've got as a boss was even later than you. Besides, who else is he going to find who'll work as cheap as you?

I fired my boss for drinking on the job.

after he left, he left the cabin with many ways to observe nature if you know what I mean.
