LOVE IT!!!! The journal was a nice touch as well - to see the day to day happenings. I have read it twice. I am single and have been downsizing my life to hit the road in the next 6 months. I am selling items and will be donating what I cannot fit in a small room (keepsakes will stay in a small spare room at parent's house). Any suggestions specifically for single females? I have traveled to all 50 United States and 22 foreign countries but I have always traveled with friends/family or medical mission groups. Hi Teresa

We had 3 cats (the dog stayed with friends) and were pleasantly surprised how much we enjoyed them. We don't have any pets, but have been around them with friends and family. The home owner and house were great and we got to explore an area we've never been to...beautiful walks! We're searching for our next housesit to see if we can squeeze it in this year using vacation time and in between some other family plans. Otherwise, we're making plans for the next phase of our lives with housesitting as a great option! We continue to enjoy your articles. Thanks much!

Steve and I continue to take steps toward more freedom and flexibility and work to build our confidence on finding more creative ways to bring joy to our lives. We started with cleaning out some of our clothes drawers (got rid of those old turtle necks I don't like any more), going through old files, and we just sold one of our desks on Craig's List. We have started by taking baby steps which led us to our first housesitting assignment. We want to see how it feels. We live in CT and it's in Lexington (outside of Boston, MA) for 5 days with 1 dog and 3 cats...we're very excited! I still have a full-time job so we are constantly working toward simplification and trying to manage some of the fears that go along with leaving a job...we're finding some form of action, however small, is great for boosting our confidence and adds to the excitement. I want to end this note by thanking you and the many others who share their stories and resources...we are very grateful. As we start to share some of the things we are doing or considering with our friends and family, we tell them it's amazing the information that is out there!
