Hi Judy ... Welcome to TOTV and TV when you get here. I moved from California with a 20 year old and 3 cats, so I know exactly how you feel. If I had it to all over again, I would have left about 95% of what I brought with me but for my kitchen some of the stuff from my kitchen (my beloved Cuisinarts, coffee maker and special utencils), my art and things that were truly special to me and only half my wardrobe. It really is easy to replace what you need here plus the furniture from out west just doesn't seem to fit the Florida lifestyle or decor. You'll end up spending about the same amount in shipping as you would in replacing once here.

One thing I'm sure of is you won't regret moving here. It ain't perfect, but it don't need fixin', either!
