Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Or cleaning, organizing, and throwing stuff out like me.

Will you be ready by the weekend do you think ?

Thanks, I definitely need it. Hoping to get $1500 for the camper but the boyfriend says he has $500 he can give me for the move so I can take less for the RV. Yard sale on friday to try to get rid of the stuff I won't be able to take hopefully I can make another $100-$150 from that.

Let us know how you get on. Are you excited to be leaving and makinga new start?

Thought you didn't believe in them? Banshee's & suchlike.
I have a theory about what a Banshee is.

When I was about 22 I was putting my car into the family garage for the night (garage was beside open countryside) and heard what sounded like a woman fighting for her life in a nearby field. The screams were blood curdling. I ran to the house to fetch my brother and a torch and set off into the fields. We didn't find anything and the screaming stopped. We went back to the houses and found the neighbours out trying to see what was going on as their children had run downstairs from bed in distress. When our dad(born and raised on a farm) arrived home we explained what had happened and without hesitation he said "oh, that was the mating call of a vixen". I have heard such calls on wildlife progs on TV since and I believe he was correct. The screaming was terrible and could easily explain a 'screaming Banshee'.

Yes foxes. They make a terrible screaching screaming noise. Sounds horrible.

Maybe not the starting over part; done it waaaaaaaaaay too many times, getting a bit sick of it. I am however, excited about getting back to a city. I really hate small towns and all they DON'T have to offer. I've visited mega cities but I've never lived in one so that is definitely exciting!

You move around a fair bit. Bet you get to see some interesting sights in your country.

Yes, I've been all over the US and parts of Canada, I still have a few states to hit before I've been to them all (thought I'd make it to all of them by the time I hit 30 but since my 40th is less then a month away... ). I'd really like to travel abroad though, something I haven't done yet.

Would it be good to say lucky you. The fact you have travelled extensively around the USA and Canada sounds pretty exciting. You must have seen some fantastic things. There is probably a big difference though, I am viewing it as a trip or a holiday, however you live there and may have to move round for different reasons.

Whatever I can get

Any specialist transferable skills, that can get you a job wherever you go. How is the employment market in the USA and Canada. The news over here seems to imply that the USA is struggling once you get away from the glitzy image. The unknown places in the middle of no where seem to be badly hit. I seem to think that Canada didn't get hit by the recession quite so badly.
