One nite, while going thru stuff, packing boxes (something we did every nite for 3 months), I slipped a note in a box.... it was dated Feb 22, 2008. It said..."if I open this box in Florida this June it means I made it and this move didn't kill me"... We'll, one summer day this summer I was opening boxes in our new Villages home and I found the note.... we survived the transition and you will too. Was it easy?--->NO. Was it worth it?--->Definitely.
Thanks for all the kind words, can't wait to meet you all.

And, thanks rshoffer for your story. Glad to know we'll get through this alive.
We were starting to wonder.
Also took your advice, we're renting a Ranch in Duval for 3 months.

Thanks again,
You all are the best
