Selling a Beloved Home

This is a packing week for me and my spouse. We pulled the trigger to sell our house and it is heartbreaking. Looking for advice to celebrate this change rather than grieve.

Context: The house is in Canada, and my husband got a new job in the USA. We considered trying to rent the Canadain house, but after months of trying to get a property manager or tenant have not been able to find someone. We decided that for finances and stress reduction it would be better to sell and invest more in the USA home.

This is our second home, and it has been idyllic. Close to town, the right amount of rooms, beautiful river view and only woods surrounding us. We will try to find a nice new home in the USA, but of course this is an unknown. It is also hard because it feels like we won't have a place to come 'home' to any more when we return to Canada.

Note -- please try to avoid telling me to find a way to keep it. We have been scraping by for 14 months keeping this and paying rent on an apartment. The house went on the market and we are under contract. No take backs.
