My business keeps me pretty busy. If I wanted to, I could probably work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. As it is, I usually do something every day and work about 4-6 hours daily. Like you, I'm not a joiner nor a water person. I do not make friends easily. Golf, to me, is a stupid sport and I get more than enough exercise working, tyvm.

So, a lot of TV's amenities are truly lost to me. Even so, I don't regret living here. I love games, especially bridge. I could play bridge here 7 days a week -- I don't, but the opportunity is there. I can play other games 7 days a week. Again, I don't, but I know I can. I could go to the squares every night. I don't.

Yes, you can buy more house outside of TV but you won't get the TV community. I have never seen a community like this anywhere in the world -- the people here truly are the warmest and kindest I've ever seen. That, alone, makes it worth living here. Add that you can do something every day of the week if you like and you really do have this perfect little bubble. Yes, you'll miss not being able to do somethings with your neighbors and friends while working, but you'll be amazed just how much you'll still be able to do with them if you choose to do so. The only thng that will limit you is you. If you choose to stay at home, do nothing, go nowhere, then TV would not be the place for you -- those that live that life here are pretty unhappy. If you choose to go out, meet people, do things, then TV is the best place to be regardless of whether you work or are busy during the week -- weekends have plenty of actvities, too.

BTW -- If you opt to move here, be sure and invite me to a bbq -- I LOVE 'em and make a mean bbq sauce!!!!
