I'm staring at what was my home office that I hardly used. It was a nice setup but my back was to the door and it felt very uncomfortable. I couldn't put my desk anywhere else because the fireplace was in the way and I would have to reroute cables in the middle of the room. So we'll take the doors out and turn it back into an open sunroom.

We finally decided to have the kids move out Aug 15 so we can fix this place up and sell it next spring. We gave them 3 years to set themselves up elsewhere and now it's our turn. I feel good about moving out but there's a lot of work to be done and some money to be spent. They've been looking for apartments and new jobs, so I hope it works out by then.

It's not a bad house but it was bought for my last abuser and that never really went away.
