My wife is getting much better. She can drive herself now and goes to Rochester on Tuesdays and comes home on Friday morning. Should be home full time May first. She is down to using a cane to help her balance.
Now what we are thinking/talking about doing. The house we moved into last fall is the first house my first wife and I bought. It is a structurally sound house but needs updated. Mainly downstairs bath torn out and redone, add an utility/mud room,replacing the carpet/trim/paint through out the whole house, and adding on a garage.
Also making the down stairs a handicap assessable area. Even though there is an upstairs, we don't use it for ourselves. Mainly storage and guest bedrooms.
That is plan "A".
Plan "B" would be to build a single floor, two bedroom home. Keeping it under 1500 square feet. This would be totally handicap accessible.
Cost wise there is not that much of a difference. We would be able to have a totally new home ready to move into without living through a remodel. Plus when we are done we would rent the current house out. That makes it be a much harder financial decision.
There are plus and minuses to either plan. I have never lived in a new home. I actually like the older homes from the stand point that they are all a little different. A new one would be cheaper on utilities and maintenance.
So what have you done when you retired??? Remodeled or new???

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
