We did it!

Well, we did it! We've sold the house (settled yesterday) and have moved onto the boat. We sorted, sold, threw out, or moved all of our possessions, and I severely underestimated how long it would take! Luckily a friend very kindly offered the use of his storage facility that was nearly empty, so we have put a lot of the "we'll have to think about that one" items in there which we'll then sort one box at a time once we get everything on the boat sorted and stowed away. Even though some things have been in storage for only a week, I'm already coming to terms with letting them go, so will unpack and sell them off.

Since we only just settled yesterday, we've had a nice 'day off' today and have managed to recharge some of our batteries that have been run down from the 3-4 weeks of emptying the house since we went unconditional.

Time for another sundowner now :) ;)

About: So we're a couple in our 40s and we've decided to abandon a responsible life with careers and stuff, sell the farm and the cars and go sailing instead. Stuff it, I might die before I get to retire so let's have fun now .... there might be time to work later.
Extra: Oh yeah ... we've got 2 dogs as well .... border collies (cute!). That's gonna make life interesting on a boat isn't it? Oh and in case you were wondering, that isn't a photo of either of us in the string vest ... or anyone we know either.
