Re: LEAVING THE FAMILY
We did just what Im01 suggested, we started telling our children we were moving to Fl. as soon as we retired. They were not happy.
The idea has been sitting with them and us for two years. We vacillated, as did they on whether this was a good idea.
We found the Villages last April, the house goes on the market Mar 1. (lake property sells better when buyers can see the lake and not mistake it for a snow covered field) we are moving to TV as soon as it sells.
Everyone has had time to adjust to the idea of separation and while it will still be hard with pre-school aged grandchildren and our kids, that we are close to...left behind...we know TV is where we are meant to be. It is our reward for a job well done. We just can't wait to begin.
