At some point in your life, you will probably ask yourself that question. Will you be safer, happier, closer to work, healthier?

The Frugal Girl blog does a great job of discussing this point! If you sell sewing machines, you want to be able to demonstrate how they work to your potential customer and probably offer some classes on how to sew to gain added revenue.

We may need to add a grab bar down the hallway at some point – it is pretty long. Set the work area up for household management. We will probably speak to one of our sons if we feel that we need help with our investments or bill paying and work something out with him. Make sure the bathrooms and bedrooms are usable.
