After posting the blog entry below, many things have changed. By now, I have finished fixing up the house in Arlington to ready it for sale. My ex-wife and I put it on the market and sold it before the end of 2019. I had the option to take my time and actually sell it in 2020, but my intuition told me to get going and get it done before 2020, which I did.
I bought a condominium unit in Maynard, Mass. and moved there in September of 2019. That same month, my mother passed away (age 98), my purse was stolen, and I met a woman at her booth at Arlington Town Day ... with whom I began a romantic relationship soon after. (How ironic! After living in Arlington for 44 years and moving away, I find romance with someone who ... lives in Arlington!)
One of her three children has yet to graduate from high school, so, for the time being, she is staying there. Eventually, as her children will all be grown and living elsewhere, she would like to sell her house and move to another town. I am thinking of selling my unit by then and joining her to live together somewhere else.
But the question is, where? And in what kind of community, housing arrangement, and so on? Of course, by early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic spread across the world, so it's difficult to predict what opportunities we will have, going forward.
