The end

We have finally gotten all of Mom's things moved from her home.  It has been cleaned and Kurt made sure the lawn has been mowed all summer long.  We put it up for sale about a month and half ago.  After about a week or so we received a bid.  The lady calling asked if I minded a realtor handling it.  Dumb me said No.  Little did I know what a nightmare it would turn out to be.  After about 5 1/2 weeks we finally closed a week ago last Friday.  I can't believe how much longer it took to close with a realtor.  Other wise we would have just gone down to the DMV and exchanged money and a receipt and signed the title and it would have been completed but those realtors have to have a ton of paper work and so many demands.

Oh well it's over now.  We took some things to DI and some went to our children and then the rest came to our house.  Most of these things I couldn't make a decision on what to do with them and felt I needed a bit more time to decide.  So that is still ahead to be done but other than that it is all accomplished.  The lawyer has completed what he was doing and now this is all completed. 

It has been a long 8 months.  Filled with tons of emotion, sadness, tears and work.  But now I have to find a new way to go on with my life.  I find myself wondering what should I do first.  It's like I have been in a tunnel and have come out into the light.  Now the big job begins.

I have physical therapy and hopefully that will help me become more able to move better and without so much pain.

I need to thank my Heavenly Father for His help with the past months.  For my husband and all of the work and care he has given to me.  To our daughters and their help.  Thank you for it all.  I love you all.
