I always feel that way when I walk in the door... and when you do move, you will take that feeling with you as you set up your next space... our space is really "us" and who we are, no matter where that is. go for it as far as moving closer to your kids.. do it ASAP.. you never know what surprises or changes can occur. I let my hubby talk me into moving 5 hours away from my son, and I regret it. We used to live in the same town and I loved it.. he would drop in now and then and we could have some holidays together. I miss that and want to move closer to him, as soon as he settles somewhere! Hubby says you can't "chase your kids around"... but I beg to differ. They are our most important family.. our kids and grands (though I don't have any grandkids and may never)... but you never know.. it could still happen. Maybe you can find a place without such a long waiting list! that would be neat.... just do it! Hugs..

I hope your changes and plans go smoothly as you move toward what your heart truly wants. And you're right.. we need to live life the way we want. It really is too short not to follow our hearts.

I think it's imperative to be near grands while they are little because once they reach the teen years, their interest in grammies, moms and dads kind of wanes, which is completely normal. If there's one thing in life I have learned, it is that we can expect change. We can buck it or accept it. The choice is ours. The very best to you. Love your visits to my posts, by the way.

It is too easy to just float and let life take you when and where you will. All of the sudden, the years have passed. Your home is lovely and I know you'll be happy to live closer to the grandkids. Hygge is a word I'm seeing everywhere this year. It seems to be THE word for 2017, and like you, I've always wanted things to be comfortable and cozy for me and for any who come to visit here. I hope you had a good Valentine's Day, Laura. xoCranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1791860108829806850.post-44387863539246311852017-02-14T20:19:48.916-05:002017-02-14T20:19:48.916-05:00You'll sure feel better with a plan.
