Ok. We are a bit different but I hope this will help or at least confuse you more. We sold everything we owned, house, 2 boats, two cars, lawnmower (so glad to see go) washer/dryer, kid......ok ok wife wouldn't let me sell the kid so we shipped him off to college...and bought a sailboat. We spent 4 years sailing the Caribbean.. long story short family illness caused us to come back.
Because we had sold everything we now needed to buy everything. (shy one kid)..We ended up sitting on the floor for 6 weeks waiting on furniture to be delivered. Apparently stores have to order the stuff and will not let you take it off the showroom floor. We actually started going into stores and asking if they would sell off the floor. Some did, a lot would not.
Now we are looking for a MH. (Yes, people die and kid's grow up) We are leaning toward selling the house but buying a condo to come home to, recharge our internal batteries (anything you do day after day to include sitting on the aft end of a boat anchored off some tiny island in the crystal clear waters of the caribbean and watching the sun sink into the sea will become...well... you get where you just don't see it) our thinking this time is that a home/condo would give us that down time to make going back out even more enjoyable.
