Thank you for the good wishes! I know this is a fit and I will be happy here. It was just hard to sign a lease without Val. Packing was hard, I only brought "me." And the fatigue is just what it is. It's been six months since I collapsed and had to put Val into nursing. At 83 it takes lots longer to recoup and I put it off way too long. Almost wiped myself out.

Louise, I'm thinking of you and wishing you the best. Take care of yourself, no need to rush.
Hugs.

What a comfort you all are! It is really remarkable how much I feel your warmth and caring. I'm putting one foot ahead of the other and have unpacked everything I brought with me in my car. (The stuff I had to keep in the house to live there after I boxed up everything else.) Feels good. If I'm up to it, I will move my dishes, glasses and flatware today and maybe a few knick-knacks. I'm yearning to hang some pictures on my bare walls but I can't remember where I packed my hammer. Maybe I'll just borrow one.  ;)

Been out of the loop for about 3 weeks and still trying to play catch up here!  Congrats Luise!  HUD housing?  That must stand for "Humanely Understanding Dreamer."
