For me, TV has been better than any vacation I had since the oldest turned 18. [not counting a transatlantic cruise including Europe]
I own very little.
I don't have any grandchildren.
My oldest lives in Palo Alto.
I'm getting a lot of sun down here and golfing [walking] and biking quite a bit.
I started new hobbies.
It's easier for me to make friends down here.
I'm close to Brownwood.

So for me, so far, I made the right decision.

Our Financial Advisor says we are in beautiful shape and money is not an issue. We live in Maryland and can't wait to get out of this too liberal state. Have lived here all my 68 years and have family here and in NJ. Close knit Italian-Irish-German family who think you are a traitor if you leave the fold. No children but lots of nieces and nephews. Change is very difficult for me as I'm sure it is for many. I feel like I'm making my first sky dive, I'm at the door of the plane and can't jump! Its nice to hear so many say that they felt the same way I do right now and it seems to have worked out for so many of you. We are going to rent a furnished house for a year so I'm coming down in May to find a place. God willing, the answers will come. I thank ALL of you for being so gracious with your time and thoughts. It has helped immensely.
