was STATES WITH NO WAIT LIST??now condo living

[Guest guest]

We are thinking about downsizing, too. What we pay for taxes here in the western

suburbs when our children are no longer in the public school system is obscene.

At first we thought condo.

Then we thought about Josh living in a condo. It's concerning.

It's his meltdowns. They are unpredictable and loud. I cannot fathom a meltdown

in an elevator, lobby, hallway or large garage.

Some nights, his anxiety prevents him from relaxing enough to go to sleep. He

quickly spirals down and it can take a couple of hours of intense support as his

body and mind find balance.

How do those of you who downsized into condos reconcile this?

Hi and everyone...

No...I am not moving to Arizona...at least not anytime soon and from my

perspective, hopefully, never.

I have been able to convince my husband, who is the one who wants to move, that

I would be extremely unhappy leaving my family, my friends and my life here.

So...we have compromised.

He wants to sell the house, get into a condo with less worry about maintenance

and property care-taking and he would like to eventually buy a vacation home in

Az...sounds like a good plan to me! I am breathing a big sigh of relief while I

clean, organize and toss out 25 years of accumulated stuff...

It is somewhat cathartic, but it was hard to part with all those school art

projects! The house will, hopefully, be listed in about a week, if I can pull it

together by then! When it will sell...who knows!

Thanks for asking. Guess you are all stuck with me a while longer.
