Well I did it ! I gave my notice and did not even cry.... My boss said why ?
I explained and his words were you are going to hate it .... Florida is way to hot. No use trying to explain, he had his mind made up. My last day is Dec. 23rd. We close on the 27th and will start the move after the closing. We are so excited. The movers are coming the week of the 19th. We sold the house with most of the furniture so just have my husband tools, washer/Dryer, and lots of clothes..... Way to many... Hope to see you soon.... Here we come

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!! How exciting! At least you won't have any time to fret over anything -- you'll be too busy! Once you are all settled nicely in TV you'll wonder what took you so long. Best wishes to you, and here's to a beautiful SNOW FREE winter!!

Congratulations!!!!!!!

Now ignore all the naysayers who say it's too hot or too buggy or it's a bunch of old people. THEY are the "old people" set in their ways and unwilling to try something different and fun. They're no fun at all.

Thanks everyone for all the great wishes.... We have allready started to pack, I had no idea that we had so much.. I had three closets full of clothes !
Not sure what to pack, way way too much...
Can't wait, five weeks to go and we will be in TV for good... I hope we meet some nice people (I am sure we will) A little scared as we do not know anyone there. Hope to meet all of you once we are there. Looking forward to meeting Gracie as she is such a breath of fresh air....
Well iam running my mouth a bit so I will close for now... Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.....

You are welcome anytime at our house. It will be frantic and then wonderful.

We are waiting with welcoming hugs, cookies and coffee or maybe a touch of something stronger.

You did the right thing, it is so hard for dedicated responsible people to make the move but you will be so loved here too.

Wish I had a dollar for every person who told us just how much were gonna hate it in Florida. I guess time will tell.

Congratulations and Happy Holidays

Words of wisdom!!!

babspaget:

If he/she was not happy for you, it is not worth staying and working for someone who truly does not have your best interest at heart.

Your bosses words would have told me it was time to move on.

All the anxiety about moving will die down and then you can stop worrying and be happy.
