Wow same for us,

Wife and I sat looking at each other saying" What have we Done!

If not for all the advise comfort and re-assurance from my friends above I would not be feeling like I did a good thing!

The selling of a home, getting rid of furniture that does not fit, the tons of accumulated memories or some call it junk! Shedding a tear as the Silverado " Man Truck" gets sold because my four wheel drive toy will be replaced by a golf cart that needs the garage space.

Then Living in a strange rental for a year looking for things you either boxed up lost or threw out.

Meeting the design team draining your bank accounts etc etc is all part of the new pee wee big adventure!

A big life change is probably not easy...even if it is a change you have been looking forward to. When it means relocating to a different part of the country that is a big life change (at least it would be for me). But TOTV is such a helpful resource and full of so many friendly, supportive and wise people who have gone through what you are going through now.

Good luck on your move!!

In one word "YES".... Lived here for 17 months now, and never looked back. Life here is unbelievably good. Welcome. Sandra

Paperboy, Congratulations, Hope your move goes smoothly.

I wonder if you have waited for this dream so long that you settled into a feeling of being in limbo the rest of your days and now that you have finally done it you have to revisit your original desires and move forward....Like waking up from a dream only to find that your dream came true. Congrats.

Please know that I am just a Wannabe but When I read this to my hubby he totally knew that I would have the same emotions too!

If only we could get to the place where we can sign on the dotted line !

Paperboy Looks like we will be neighbors. Just curious, does your screen name reflect a connection to the newspaper biz? My DH is a retired journalist

Mixed emotions? yes....but once we are down at The Villages, everything will be good.

Hi
Took you 5 years, It took us 3 days and we signed on the dotted line. No regrets at all. When you find the right place to live you know it. Just sit back and enjoy the ride, you will not regret it.....
