God knows exactly what He is doing and this will be an awesome move for your family I'm sure. I just went through this on a muck smaller scale (from a nice home in Houston to 1 acre and a delapidated mobile home in the country about 45 minutes away...population 1111 - SALUTE...old Hee Haw lingo there0). It has definitely been a big change with a set of challenges I am still coming to terms with, but the positives have been incredible. The waitresses and cook at the local diner know us by name, the one thrift store in town is actually awesome for some reason, I actually use the market flyer that comes in the mail for our little grocery store and plan my menu based on the weekly specials, there is never a line at the post office, and the peace and quiet is only occasionally broken up by geese or sheep or a mule braying at our neighbor's farm. In short, I love it here, plus I appreciate the perks of city life all the more when we head that way for a nice dinner or a movie...it seems more special now...<br /><br />You're gonna love it and hate it and tire of it and appreciate it all in the same day sometimes, but it wil overall be a wonderful experience I'm sure. And boy, it will be so fun to see you transform your farmhouse...can't wait!!<br /><br />Blessings to you and your hubby and daughter as you step into this new adventure - wish I could come and help you pack! :o)<br /><br />Hugs & Blessings,<br />Beckybee'nmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04661457676988758478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4658720088249679531.post-15977777518582872792009-10-05T01:39:14.808-04:002009-10-05T01:39:14.808-04:00Change is good!

It will be exciting and different. So much to look forward to. Wishing you all the best -- Hooterville is the place to be, farm living is the life for me ..."

It will be a big change for you, but I have no doubt you will find living in the country to be wonderful. I just got back from visiting family in the desert of Arizona...and I mean the desert. They are out in the boonies, with only about 20 homes surrounding them, each on at least 2 acres. When I first saw it, I didn't even want to turn in the driveway, but after 2 days there, the serenity, space, and simplicty spoke to me..I came home and started looking for ways to emulate that peace and quiet. And to think you'll have all those rooms to redecorate...you're going to love it! And aren't you glad you've done to much to your home recenty...you'll get top dollar...lucky girl!<br /><br />Love ya,<br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15369867469773842215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4658720088249679531.post-71945325951275309632009-10-01T13:14:12.637-04:002009-10-01T13:14:12.637-04:00I am a city girl too, but a while back we lived in...I am a city girl too, but a while back we lived in a Town with nothing but a small Walmart. We were lucky to have that! It was a wonderful life and if my hubby didn't have a job change I would still be there. Life is slower and so much more enjoyed...you will love it! And you will find stores...us girls always do!Ceekay-THINKIN of HOMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15111241316745923019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4658720088249679531.post-54995710332709271172009-10-01T11:37:01.386-04:002009-10-01T11:37:01.386-04:00Oh, what an adventure!

I have lived in tiny communities, on acreages, they definitely have their benefits, so I am wishing you all the best. But the shopping will be very limited, you will love the trips to the big city like never before. But I know you will make that ranch house sooo beautiful that you will never look back!
