One reason I am reluctant to consider selling my house and moving: I can walk to multiple grocery stores, close enough that it's easy to carry unless I'm buying tons and tons of liquid. And close enough so that I rarely do a big huge shop that would be hard to carry!
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.

If I move anywhere walkable to grocery, I will have to re-train myself to shop multiple times a week to avoid too many bags. In NYC, walking by multiple grocery stores on my normal commute made 1-2 bag shopping my norm.

Grocery shopping with a car vs grocery shopping on public transit are night and day!
Also, grocery shopping in a house vs grocery shopping in a 4th-floor walk-up.

Ann, that's a ferret.
If you would like some encouraging news:
Coco has a chest x-ray today. The lung cancer tumor is shrinking. From what I understand (Hubs spoke to the oncologist), there's a long way to go -- but I'll take the good news where I can get it.
In other cat news, we're going to foster a young orange fellow named Covey. He's rather on the aggressive side with the other cats at the shelter. We're hoping that Coco will see him as another kitten to care for (even though Covey is a little old to be a kitten), and that Joey will see him as a playmate. Covey also tends to be a little aggressive with people. We're hoping to calm him down a little there, too, so he can find his forever home (although I have a sneaking suspicion that we'll end up as his forever home).
