It’s been another very busy month here in our FT RV lives, as we continue our search for a little piece of paradise in the country. If you’ve been keeping up with my Blog, you know that we are on a mission to return to a life we once knew in a brick and mortar home on an acre or two of land. We love having six wheels down, but the bank has expressed it’s distaste of our Tiffin lifestyle by informing us we can’t do both. Not on our fixed income, at least not now, while trying to qualify for a loan. It’s a cruel joke, as they saw fit to loan us the money to purchase our home on wheels while we had a house a few years back. But we aren’t laughing much about that now.

Whenever you catch yourself saying the words “This is the toughest thing I’ve ever been thru!”, do you start thinking back of some of the tough things you’ve actually lived thru, like I do? There’s childbirth (24 hours of labor! OMG!), several divorces, and then your child grows up and gives you a different kind of heart ache, as you watch them suffer and grow. Your parents get old, sick, and pass away, or linger in a world of dementia in a nursing home. Your career (or job) becomes a memory and your pockets are drained. Not to mention all your friends that come and go, family going thru tough times, etc, etc, etc. Being that I’m an empathic person, my heart aches for those going thru tough times, sometimes more than my own drama, because I feel helpless! But, I have lived thru it all! I have triumphed thru all the good and the bad, because I’m still here. I usually have a smile on my face, love in my heart, and my soul lives on. But even as I write this, my spirit feels a little broken right now. My DH loves our motorhome, but we want a house to come home to. We’d like nothing more than to be able to park the Beast in our backyard until we plan the next adventure. We’d like to see a little winter, but also like to escape the cold when we’ve had enough. Choices. That’s what I like having! Nothing bad about having choices. But when you feel like your ability to make choices is denied, it’s not good for your soul! When someone tells you what you can and can not do, it’s all bad!

So here’s where we are folks; we found a cute little house on 1 and a quarter acres in the country after 4 months of painfully searching. We have an official purchase contract on this home. We are undergoing inspections and apply for the loan tomorrow. It is contingent on selling our Coach in 15 days, or we have to give this one up and start all over. Time is almost up, since we are in Ohio and Fall is coming! We have until October 15th to sell our coach or move it out of this seasonal campsite. I can hear the clock ticking louder and louder every minute of every day, and I’m getting greyer by the minute!

If you are in the market for a motorhome or know someone that is, PLEASE share this blog!! We have a 2014 Tiffin Allegro RED 38QRA. 27,721 miles and delivery must be taken in Medina, Ohio. Only serious buyers need to inquire. We have reduced the price to $134,900, which is an excellent deal on a luxury coach like this! Just research it online and see how many 38QRA’s you find in this price range in great condition! It is listed on RVTrader.com, so check it out! Many upgrades!

 

So once we get this Beast sold, we can move forward with buying our little retirement home in the country. Perhaps we will downsize one day to a smaller coach and hopefully see ya ‘al down the road once more. Until then, all buyers can submit their inquiries via email. Tic tock, tic tock……
