I am happy where I am until winter comes. Thinking of moving in a few years but right now I will stay as I love watching my granddaughter.

@wolfgirl569 That is good that you are close to where he lives and that you get to spend time with your granddaughter. Madison would be my main reason for staying here.

@velvet53 Adeline had a babysitter but they retired from doing day care recently. He is looking for another one as it cuts time off his driving. But I will still have her when he works extra hours. But I am close enough to visit him easy compared to if I move.

@velvet53 There are days that I miss the smell of the Mediterranean Sea and the walks along the beaches. I am sure that should we go back there I would miss the peaceful nights, the Alps, the smell of the pine forests. You cannot have everything.

@arthurchappell I am not a big shopper or one that likes to go out to eat very often. I love the solitude of the country. If I lived in the mountains or the country I do believe that I could get a lot more done.

i feel yer troubles, hon. i've felt that way fer quite some years. back when i 'twas physically able to do such, i'd too many obligations (takin' care 'f my mamaw, momma, aunt'n the rest). the trouble bein' the more "seasoned" we get the more diff'cult to move 'way - from family 'n doc's :(
perhaps ya can jest get 'way fer 't least a few days to the mountains come this autumn? 'njoy the color show, cooler weather 'n jest soak'n that calm.

Time has brought us beyond our expectation sometimes and we are caught in between two choices. In your case, do what's practical so as not to suffer the consequences later. Good luck.

I was moved around a lot as a kid, so once I settled in Oregon many years ago, it was where I wanted to be.

@velvet53 I spent a week or so near Gunnison as a kid. It was beautiful.

Oh, I cannot make that decision for you. Do what is best for you.

I am living in Illinois but am from Wisconsin, and do miss living there. I do like the longer summers Illinois offers, but there are many times when I long to go back home. It's a conundrum since I do have my mom and dad closer here and my sister and her and her husband's kids...
