All of my family is back north and I still chose to stay here rather than put up with winter and do nothing but babysit. It is time to enjoy life! I love it here and whether it is neighbors or people you meet at activities, they are truly great people that have become wonderful friends. They look out for me like I am their family. I am relatively shy until I get to know you, but I have great friends in TV. Don't even hesitate! Come on down.
Nussbaum,

I'm sorry about the loss of your husband. You are right in wanting to enjoy your life. At my job, I have been e-mailing a new customer for my company for a couple of weeks now, and this woman lives in South Africa. In her signature line on her e-mails she includes the phrase: "Enjoy life -- it is not a rehearsal." How right she is.

So go and enjoy the Florida sunshine and 85 degree temps. because it is 44 degrees, dreary and drizzling in Chicago today.
