On Wednesday, I am going to go to see some houses. This evening, the real state man who sold my house came here and we checked online was was offered. If I saw interest, he immediatly called and scheduled an appointment.
And I told him that now he knew better what I wanted so that he could check other places to see. I called later my daughter Claudia to tell her what I was doing. She had been looking and so had Tania. But it seems that they have never listened to me. Tania had found a "perfect" apartment for me at a 6th floor. SAY WHAT??? They grew up with me running to the garden in panic with a tiny earthquake. And then I had legs to run. I did not say that in case of an earthquake I would have to jump from the 6th floor.
I hope that I find something I like. I´d like to rent for a year so that I have time to think what to do next.
Please, keep your fingers crossed that I find something. And whatever you do, by no means pray for it. I don´t think that we should pray for these sort of things. But good wishes are fine. And luck.
Sleep tight, dear friends.

I have come to think that daughters stop listening to what their mothers say after a while.

You might be right about that @marguicha but at least you don't listen to them and that is a good thing, right?

Well you have my best wishes that you find somewhere nice at ground level Marga
6 floors up would be a bit too high for me

Even when there´s a very small quake, you cannot use the elevator. So you are trapped even if the building holds.
