Home Is the Very Best Place to Be.
On September 5, 2021 by MarySeventeen weeks to the day since we arrived in Tennessee, our ridiculously long wait ended. We are finally in our new house!!! We’ve actually been here a whole week already, but things have been so hectic I haven’t had time to sit down with my thoughts yet. I’ve been wanting to get a new post

Out of the Campground
On August 17, 2021 by MaryWe’re not living in the camper anymore! We’re also not living in our house yet, either. With the way things have gone so far, did anyone actually believe we would be moving into our house this past weekend? The quick rundown is this: the sellers still can’t move out, but we decided it would be

The Finish Line is In Sight
On August 7, 2021 by MaryI’m trying to not get my hopes up too much yet, but it’s looking like we may be able to move into our house next weekend. I think the worst that could happen at this point is that we have to wait a few additional days. At least we’re talking days now, not weeks. It’s

Arbitrary Decisions and More Waiting
On July 28, 2021 by MaryWe don’t really have any updates on the house situation yet, but since my last post we’ve adopted a dog, I signed up for an exercise class, and my husband found a new job. I guess that’s what happens when you’re going stir crazy- you start to do stuff out of the blue. Our new

Waiting Is My Full Time Job Now
On July 12, 2021 by MaryWell, we are back in Tennessee after leaving New York with a bang. Our Independence Day weekend consisted of loading up the moving truck, playing corn hole, eating junk food, drinking adult beverages, burning Christmas trees in a bonfire, and setting off a ton of fireworks. It was really quite epic. Unfortunately, I didn’t get

I Think I Left My Heart In Tennessee
On June 26, 2021 by MaryWow, my last post was a bit of a downer. Possibly losing the house, head colds, no A/C in the camper… kind of bleak. The overall update is that we are all healthy, the A/C unit has been replaced, and we are now back in New York as of a few days ago. As far

Hoping For the Best, Preparing For the Worst
On June 17, 2021 by MaryY’all. We just might lose the house. We have about a one in a million chance of actually getting it at this point- less than two weeks away from when we should be closing. It’s been a stressful week of phone calls and emails back and forth between us, our broker, our realtor, the seller’s

Hooray, June Is Finally Here!
On June 1, 2021 by MaryOne month down, one more to go! I can’t believe we’ve already been in Tennessee for a whole month. In some ways it feels like it has been so much longer than that, but it also feels like we just got here. I am now using my GPS way less, have figured out somewhat- of

Starting the Six Week Countdown to Closing
On May 20, 2021 by MaryA few days ago we learned that our closing will be a little later than we planned, so we’ll be here at the campground for at least six more weeks. I am trying my best to be patient, and live like we’re just on a long vacation, but wow. I am seriously excited to finally

Goodbye, New York. Hello, Tennessee!
On May 9, 2021 by MaryIf anyone had asked me a few years ago where I saw myself living in the near future, I never in a million years would have said, “At a campground in Tennessee.” Yet, that’s where I find myself today, along with my husband and three small kids. A couple months ago, we sold our newly-renovated
