Well, this is a long time in coming, but we are now in the process of a move back to Wisconsin! YEA!! I almost can't believe it's true! We're a week away from putting our house on the market, here in Washington state. We're actually awaiting our real estate broker; he's going to be taking pictures of the place for online viewing. Then come Friday evening, my husband and I are heading out on a road trip to Wisconsin, for multiple reasons: (1) house hunting, of course! (2) to drive his Corvette back and put it in storage (yes, my husband loves cars, and we have too many cars! ha!) and (3) a road trip just sounds like fun, doesn't it?! We're planning to stop at Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. We both love photography, and the last time I came through there, I didn't do it justice! So yes, you might call this one of the places on my bucket list! We have been so busy downsizing, cleaning, and organizing, that yes, we are more than ready for a break! I am nearly as excited about the road trip as I am about the move (nearly!)
The housing market has just been crazy this year! The house we are in right now, we purchased back in August, 2015. It has nearly doubled, I kid you not! It also helps that we are located in a very sought-after neighborhood, so we shouldn't have any trouble selling this place! We may even have a bidding war! That's exciting in itself! Yessss!
As for Wisconsin, it's just as bad there! It seems every time I find a house I like, it gets bought up in no time! Houses seem to be just flying off the market!! I'm almost afraid what will be--or won't be--available when we get there! It is definitely a sellers' market! Yikes!
Trying times, and a trying of our faith...but God just says, "Trust Him!" So that is what we are endeavoring to do...every step of the way! Our God is always good...all the time!! 😊
