Not fond of Connecticut nor'easters either BTW. But the (humidity + heat waves) in Connecticut was pretty much the same as the (humidity + summer) in Florida, and I can't stand either of them. Humidity + heat = REALLY bad for arthritis. It's not healthy for me to be here, and if I'm going to spend a lot of time inside in air conditioning, I could've just stayed put, or move to a cheaper place in a different state like Kentucky.

No - it's the Villages that attracts me to the Villages. There's nothing about Florida weather that's attractive to me.
I really sympathize with you and your arthritis. Had a relative like that and they moved to Arizona for the dry climate and fewer allergies. For the sake of your health a move to a healthier location might be a good New Years resolution.
