Limbo

Reading and dreaming! It is now February and no post for 2 months. The weather is changing here and all of the blogs we are following are now in the Bahamas and we are still dreaming about being there too. What are we doing to get there? Reading, reading, reading, buying books and magazines, reading some more, following blogs, reading. Melanie bought be me several books for my birthday and I read them every night. But for some reason, I feel like we should be moving forward with some kind of physical action. We are on a 2 1/2 year plan at this point, until I retire from teaching school after 28 years. So what is next? Sell the house, seems to be the big obstacle at this moment. Melanie and I agree it needs to be done but I am reluctant to put it on the market today. I'm not really sure why! We need the money from the equity to be able to start actively looking for a boat. The house might take a year to sell, can we make anything off of it in this economy, we need to make some minor repairs to make it perfect, all excuses in my mind. Not to mention we bought this really perfect house 1 1/2 years ago and are comfortable in it. So we just dream on. Is this progress? I think so!
