Totally understandable. I go from very happy to a bit bummed when I think about it. I'm more happy, I want her to be up here with family and friends.
Lastly is the heat. She has never liked hot weather. She actually would prefer a northern climate. She would do great up there with you in Wisconsin!
Sorry to hear C doesn't care for living in Florida, but it's so great that she tried it out. I wish I had been brave enough back in the day to leave home for at least a little while.
I'm really proud of her for trying that at 23. Not sure I could've done it when I was her age.
Aw, that's so sad! What did she hate? I don't think I'd want to live there either, though the proximity to Disney is a huge plus.
That's it. After five days of dealing with grumpy, snotty, and some really good kids she is done and doesn't want to go out and socialize to meet new people. I do wish there were more coworkers her age at her school. She did have a Universal and Disney pass but like you said you can only go so many times by yourself and her friends from the North were fresh out of college and barely making it by and didn't have the funds to come down and I can only go down so much. It's sad to see your child having to deal with certain grown up issues. I'm glad she's coming back.

Oh where to begin. First is the cost of living for a single person. A 650 sq ft apartment for her in a mediocre/safe area is what she would pay for a very nice two-three bedroom in Indiana. Her car insurance is insane. The second would be traffic, I4 is horrible which a lot of you may know, she has to drive it every day to and from work. Third, she really hasn't made many friends while she's been down there. It's even hard to befriend co workers where she is. Her school is set up like a college campus with different buildings holding different areas of study. She is the youngest in her building with most everyone else being in their 40's. They all get along and enjoy each other but that doesn't help with the friend situation. Did I say she is also an introvert
So sorry - I hope the trip can bring you a little bit of joy during this sad time.
Thank you! I naively thought it was going to feel like the grief from when we previously lost much loved pets. Wrong! Pip was in my top 3 - right behind losing my mom and my grandmother.
The loss of a pet can be so sad. Perhaps take some comfort in the fact that you gave him a good life with your family.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad you have a trip planned to help distract you a bit from that pain, and I hope it all goes smoothly!
I am so sorry...I remember you mentioning the postponed trips on account of your dog. While he's at rest now, you will take some time to heal. I hope your long-awaited WDW trip will offer some ease.
