The stress of buying a house and moving is at the top of the stress list.
Buying and "replenishing" your household is a costly adventure as I am going thru it now. It also is a lonely , sad event unless you get some friends engaged so I would highly recommend it.
I have a friend who has an eye for design who is going to help "un guy" my new place..she has the design eye as well as one of my relatives.
It will be strange and potentialy really hard at first. I had a good few cries but then felt a bit of freedom. Glad my dog was with me and some friends came by to see and help.
Good luck with the house!
