    Big changes ahead for me....

    Well guys it seems that my wife and I have decided to take a huge step and


    RELOCATE.


    Come the end of April we will be moving out of our rented townhome and moving ourselves to Avondale, Arizona. We closed on a house about 2 weeks ago. Its one of those things where we decided we best do it now or we may never get the chance to. My good friend down there found a house for us to look at and we cant be happier with it. 4 bedrooms, loft, solar electrical, new refrigerator and oven and our favorite thing - a pool.

    It was a bit of a paperwork nightmare getting the loan approved due to a couple hiccups with my prior marriage, but it all got worked out. Even better, my employer is sending me with my desk computer, monitors and desk phone allowing me to work remotely. My commute will be 30 seconds.

    I am really excited about this - and the fact that the change in climate will definitely help my wife dealing with psoriatic arthritis.

    Now to the joys of packing up the place.

    And my 25 year old son is getting married on April 1st also....... So we arent moving until the end of April.


    Anyone here in the Phoenix area? I may be in need of a darts partner. I already found a bowling team.

      Didn't make it past that first big paragraph, huh?

          Congrats! I'm big on gorgeous desert landscapes, so I love Arizona. Well, except for the heat. And the scorpions. And the snakes. And the angry right-wing politics. And the fact that I got dragged into court there once.

          Quite a change from Minnesota. Enjoy!

                Wow, I have no idea how I missed that. I did not miss the rest; climate change, joys of packing, etc.

                  congrats ... I stayed a couple of weeks in Scottsdale, I really loved morning hikes in the desert hills in the surrounding area
                  It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

                        Congrats! Big change indeed. I love it in AZ despite all those annoyances sheep listed. I'm in Tucson which is a couple hours southeast. I usually drive up to Phx once during ST and also during the Cubs series. And rare concerts, like Green Day tomorrow night . Welcome!

                            Wow, that's huge. I work from home and the commute is wonderful. But I'm in NJ and not AZ.
