Hi-

I'm actually doing okay.
My mother calls me everyday around 6:30, which I now look forward to. Sometimes she's the only human I will have talked to in a day.
My 2 house closings went fine without a hitch, except for the buyer holding back some money until I get the "correct" death certificate. Really? Geeeeesh!

I now can't wait to get out of here and into my new home in Massachusetts. It was Rob's wish that I move ASAP after he died and I feel it even more now.

I had a stager come in to tell me how to arrange my furniture, etc for the real estate office who is going to list my house. In the kitchen she noticed the empty built in wine rack that was there when we bought the house. She said, " it's empty??!!" Like I had a shrunken head in my sink or something. I said, " yes". She said," Well, go buy some wine and fill the rack so buyers can notice the detail". I said," well, that's not going to happen. My husband and I were/are recovering alcoholics." She said, " then use empty bottles". I said, "No. It's not going to happen...". Can you imagine me doing that to Rob? To me? She actually couldn't believe I didn't have wine glasses. I couldn't actually believe she had a job going into people's houses and telling them what to do.

She referred to Lucy as " chubby" one too many times for my taste- and she easily topped out at 400lb+.

I've been on SR today, looking at different threads and posting here and there. It's a good way for me to be social about now. I don't know what I'd do without you all. (And Dave and Lucy)!
