One month from today we will be back at our home in Florida and will have to say so many goodbyes before we fly south.
Goodbye to our vacation house
Goodbye to our two precious sons
Goodbye to our darling granddaughter and grandson
Goodbye to our fabulous family
Goodbye to our wonderful friends
Goodbye to our dear Doodles the cat
But, hello paradise!
This year will be better. We plan to fly north to see everyone more often.

Florida just can't wait until your arrival, so we can get the party started!

@DianneN The emotions are understandable. But you'll feel much better when you get here and get settled in, and relax in the lounge chair by the pool for the first time!

@moffittjc You are right. It happens every year here in CT and in FL when it’s time to leave.
I’m stopping my replying to go kiss Doodles this minute.

By then you might be more than ready to leave if the cold gets to you.

@DianneN so the house up north is like a halfway house now. You've got a very nice life.

@Alexandoy Yes, it’s our home, but eventually we will sell it.
Thank you. We worked hard early on to have the life we have today. Hard work does pay off!

I am sure you must be looking forward to it. But definitely you will miss your dear ones. But for sure, you can often visit each other.

That means you'll be home by December and you'll be missing your fabulous family and friends and even Doodles.

@Nakitakona We became residents of Florida last year, so we have to live there for at least 6 months and 1 day.

@DianneN So that's long enough. It would take you 7 months more to go before the end of your vacation with them.

@DianneN I hope that I can get to Florida this year. Even a few days would be so wonderful.

@Tampa_girl7 Thank you. We leave CT for FL the week after Thanksgiving. I need the change badly.
Paradise awaits and so does Orville.

@DianneN I don't blame you. It is a nasty 4 letter word.

@DianneN I would have never left Florida (Paradise). I go there every summer.

@cplante62 Awesome! My grandfather used to live in St. Augustine. Beautiful area.
It was my dream to have a place in Florida.

@DianneN I go to the Daytona Beach area. I have been going there for 55 years every summer for 2 weeks and I still find new things to go see and do. I love it. Hoping to retire there.
