It always works this way. You have to look at the big picture and the time when you are over the mess your find yourself in.

everything that all of you have written are identical to what i've been hearing from my hubby and close friends and family. i know it will be great moving into a downsized condo w/lesser expenses (we're in our 60's) but it seems the stress of packing,purging and not knowing definitely that we do in fact have the condo, keep me thinking only in the negative, which is so self-destructive to me and my hubby. i feel that this is the worst `episode' i've ever had and it just feels never ending til we get the move-in date for the condo. i just don't know how to deal w/all the `overwhelm' and am doing what i can to take care of myself. i know it will pass, i will have time to stabilize, but my life has been very good and calm for about 20 yrs. but this move has really done me in. just typing is therapy and reading your replies has helped. thank you.
