sign papers no turning back....
 
Well the time has come we sign papers tomorrow on our house in Michigan!
It will not be our house anymore... There is no turning back.
We leave for Florida on Dec. 26th to our new home in TV....
My friends keep saying are you sure. I have never been so sure in my life... My stomache is in knots but I know what is to come is so much better than my life in Michigan. I am just so scared of not knowing what tomorow brings. Please tell me again how happy you are !:spoken::spoken:

Oh my dear babspadget. We all know how you feel and I do know that you are going to feel that this place is home in just a short time. I had the same feelings, but be assured that you will be happy.

Hugs and love,
Gracie

I am so happy and excited for you (do you think you could jump off I-75 at Big Beaver and pick me up?? I'll just bring a small suitcase.) :)

Welcome to Your New Surroundings
 
Look forward to having you here soon. You will find the people here so friendly and helpful, you will wonder why you ever had any doubts.

Just relax and be careful coming down so that you can arrive safely. The lights will be on for you.

Best of Luck to you...... I will be in the same boat as you on Fri. Dec 16... we will close on our house in CT... then we will stay here till after Xmas... and close on house in TV on 1/18... yes, I am also a little in the panic mode right about now, and everyone is saying to me "how can you leave your grandkids, and then they say "I could never leave them" making me feel so guilty. ughhhhh !!!

Hi Babspadget,

In no time you will remember why you're hear and rejoice at your decision. I've never spent an unhappy day in TV. I have heard that there are some unhappy people here, but as yet, I haven't met one. It's the happiest place I've ever seen.

So yes rejoice-- and repeat after me:

RIBBIT!

P,

Are you competing with Gracie for "TV Ambassador of the Year" award?

You both put smiles on more faces than you can imagine!

Keep it up!!

Wow!- us too!
 
Hi Babs,

Lynn and I are also on our way from Virginia Beach. Our furniture is on our way and we close on our Virginia House tomorrow. We will be driving south to arrive in TV Friday. We will close on our house on Monday the 19th. Our furniture will arrive on the 23rd.

Exciting times, but we are looking forward to the new chapter.

Don and Lynn Argus

Here are many hugs for all of you just staring your life here.
 
This is the time of our lives that we need to think of us. We have helped and nurtured and loved and supported our children, and it is possible that we have done it a little too much. Now it is time for them to be adults and to find the way without us, although we are still here. Thankfully.

The wonderful draw of Disney and their grandparents home will bring them here and Skype. that is free, even if the camera costs a little is a wonderful way to look at each other and talk every day if we wish.

This place that makes all of us more active, is good for our bodies and our minds and for just our plain happiness.

It is very hard to leave our families and to begin life anew, but as someone who thought she would never do such a thing and is a type A, too responsible firstborn. ..I can say; I am so glad I did. And Sweetie is happy if I am happy. Plus he always wanted to play this much golf.

Plus, if we don't do it NOW, when will we do it??
