Home again, home again, Jiggety Jig

My mom used to say the words in this post's title - I didn't know what they came from, but found they are from a nursery rhyme:

To market, to market to buy a fat pig;
Home again, home again, jiggety-jig.
To market, to market, to buy a fat hog;
Home again, home again, jiggety-jog.


We haven't bought a pig or a hog, but we are at home for a little while. This is the time period during which we have planned that we would decide whether we are going to keep the motor home and sell the house, or keep the house and sell the motor home.

We have come to the conclusion that selling the house is the right thing to do; the taxes in our area are so high, and with the other costs, we don't think continuing to own our house is the right thing to do. We haven't yet decided the next thing to do... whether to try to get rid of everything (or most things) and live in the motor home for a while, or to get a smaller place in a less costly location and possibly travel around in the motor home too. Right now, we're postponing the decision - we know that we want to head out to Arizona for Quartzite in January, and we're thinking that we will attend the Escapees Escapade in Arizona in March - and by doing those things and staying more west and south, we can avoid needing to winterize our rig.

In the meantime, before we head out again, there are things that we have on our list of "want to get done on the motor home" that are more easily accomplished if we are at home, so we're working on those things.
