Oh Bill....just curious, is popcorn included in the rehab program?

[Bettiboop]

It happens to the best of us

I can relate to everything you said! I too had to resort to muting the speakers so the Village jingle doesn't give away the fact that I am once again visiting the village site.

Can't wait for the day I can LIVE it instead of just read about it.

Sorry... I'm no help to you either! When we secured our property, all I can think of is The Villages and as I fondly call them... "The Village People" I check TOTV on my phone during the day to see if there are any new posts... I already feel I know these people and can't wait to get down there to meet them!!!

Hi... My name is Angie and I have been off the sight for oh... maybe 2 hours at a time....

*bowing head* I'm sooo ashamed!

[Oren L Miller]

Thank you thank you thank you. I thought it was just the wife and I that had gone nuts. We wake up in the mornings and talk about TOTV and TV. This is Saturday and we have spent at least 6 hours on this forum. The folks on here have fabulous advice. By the time we get there I will know who to call for everything. I know the next 9 months will fly by but we can't wait to come down December 13 and finalize the house plan on the lot already picked out. We are spending all of our time talking about the villages. We can't wait to drink the kool-aide and become Frogs. I can't wait to meet all of you folks in person.

Being addicted to TOTV means that when you get up to pee during the night, you check the website for new threads!

It is fun, isn't it. You work your whole life then resign yourself to retire and age gracefully...then someone tells you about TV. I've posted before that my husband swore he would never, ever move to Florida, now he's telling everyone! I'm looking forward to my first TOTV meeting!!

Wow!! I thought I was the only one!!!

[Boudicca]

Yup, its definitely catching! I've lurked around TOTV for almost 2 years, having persuaded hubby that this is the perfect place to retire in. We moved l6 months ago and now have permanent smiles. Life is very good. We are blessed. Sandra

[blue72]

Guilty as charged
And mighty proud of it!!!!!!!!!!!

[wendyquat]

When I first read your post I had to scroll down to see if I had posted it!!! Did the same thing for months, especially the thing about turning the sound off so hubby would not hear it!! Thankfully he got addicted too so here were are!! CROAKED

[herbaru]

Add me to the group.
From a wannabe, make that a will be...
My friends who live in TV tell me I know more about TV than they do.

See you all at Crispers and more one day!

It's gotten so bad, I turned the volume down on my speakers so my husband can't hear the Villages theme song...help!! The first step to getting help is recognizing you have a problem, upside to that is realizing that there is a solution...all it's going to take is to sell everything and retire...see you soon and keep the posts coming!

SukiChu, Welcome to TOTV from another Illinoisan. Keep posting and reading and your will learn so much about The Villages. I too am hooked on reading TOTV. I dare not look at TOTV at work lest I get in trouble with the IT department police at my company. To get my TV fix I will returning to TV in October for 8 days renting in Sabal Chase! Yee Hah!!

[ssmith]

AT first it was curiousity and then I wanted to learn everything and see if TV was as good as it sounded, but now I am full out hooked and do enjoy getting to know many by their posts. It helps to keep my hope alive since we must wait for now. Really what I have learned here has been invaluable in that I feel I will be so much ahead of the game when we finally can make it to TV. Thanks all!

To Bare I don't check in the mid of the night but when I can't sleep I have gotten very late to give my mind a rest. Yes, I do turn off the sound so my hubs doesn't always know ow oftenI visit the sights.

Hi my name is Dan and I'm a TOTV addict. My addiction has gotten much worse after we purchased our home in Buttonwood. I blame my addiction on those TOTV members ( you know who you are ) who enable me by their clever, continuous and witty posts - not to mention their PM's.

While trying to relax at home here in MA, there are times I hear beckoning calls from other TOTV members coming through my walls telling me to sign on to TOTV because I'm missing yet another important new post. I've learned to fight the urge, but now that my wife, Floss, has her own TOTV ID, she has enabled me to surrender to the urge to check for "new" TOTV post.

In the end, there are worse addictions to have....I hope!
