Then I'm curious as to why you posted to this thread???
FSUZeta - I know, I know. I lived in Melbourne, FLA for years and was amazed at those snowbirds who were sooooo unhappy. For the love of God, move back north! Life is too short to be miserable where you are living.
Lest you think we stayed in the north when we were unhappy - when my family was in NJ, my father was a vice-president at a Fortune 500 company. He told the president to move us south - or he would quit. They didn't believe it - look at your title! look at your salary! No one would leave here!
He did. Packed up his wife and 4 kids, and moved home to Texas. We spent a summer haying and ranching while he looked for a new executive position. I didn't appreciate at the time the bravery that took. He got a great job with a company he has been with since 1978 - and I learned to do something rather than sit around and complain.
