Whew this packing up to move in 6 weeks and get a house ready to put on the market ASAP is exhausting. Other than lots of rest....after I unpack in TV mid October what would be the first things I should plan to do?

Get your driver's license, register the car, register to vote, buy a golf cart and get ready to write lot of checks.

Momesu, Congrats. I bleieve you have posted this will be the start of a whole new life for you....in more than one way right. I am sure it will come with many ups and downs but am sure you will be glad you made the move!

MOMESU,

Take some time to relax. Drive around a lot in your car and cart, learn where all of the stores are, meet your neighbors, check your sprinkler timer, get a lawn and bug guy, oh, did I say take some time to relax?

Welcome

MOMESU congratulations. Once you get here, it's time to relax and enjoy. And like ladydoc said "Get your driver's license, register the car, register to vote, buy a golf cart and get ready to write lot of checks."

MOMESU ... go up to one of the squares during Happy Hour and get a double of your beverage of choice, listen to the music, watch the line dancers, meet some of your fellow Villagers, and soak in the lifestyle that brought you to this wonderful place ... it is now YOUR lifestyle ... and do all those necessary things suggested above ... tomorrow .. WELCOME!

I believe you need Florida issued Auto Insurance to get a driver's license and register your car.

Yes this will be truly the start of a new life for me. I have lots to learn and experience. I am both excited and scared out of mu mind over this big move and change for me, but I can't wait for it to happen. I'm used to ups and downs in life but hopefully will be shedding many downs with this move....like no more snow shoveling!

Believe me I will be at LSL the first night I am in town.....it will be my reward after a long drive. Unpacking can start the next day!

Smart move!

[pooh]

Congratulations, first of all. Secondly, when you get here, stand outside your new home, take a deep breath, relax every muscle in your body, smile and enjoy what you see. After that, you've had lots of wonderful suggestions.

Welcome home, Suzanne!
