Here's to a tropical move for you one day!My Town - I’ve lived here over 50 yrs - a lot has changed - I’m sad the town has grown so much - a little is nice but way too much with bad city planning is not good - sadly we have a HUGE drug problem which brings with it a lot of crime - meth is a horrible problem not to be out done by heroin - very sad - I’ve had houses by me blow up from the people in it making meth
When I was looking to move I would only look at new houses as old ones could be meth houses and people are not honest to rehab as should and meth houses are very dangerous as the chemicals get into everything - they are a bio hazard
Often times it’s not the poor people who are doing the drugs - it’s your nice well to do neighbor - it’s really sad
One of the draw backs of being in an area that has a lot of rural spaces
I do find I enjoy being close to big box stores - we have them now - most of the time you can obtain just about anything you need within 5 miles
I can get a lot more food deliveries now than ever before - I’m grateful for that
I now have awesome neighbors - something I have not had since I was a kid - both sets if neighbors are very kind and friendly and my new neighborhood is safe - can’t put a price on that !!
My only drawback for living here is winter - y’all know how much I LOVE winterif I had the funds I’d be living in a beach house in the Caymen Islands
I didn't know whether to "like" the second part of your post or "yikes" the first part.

Oh my gosh - I love that!
Tacos- you can get pretty creative and it’s taco Tuesday
The scrapbooking craze when DS was little - I really enjoyed the creative outlet and now I have so many fun pictures to look back on! (I should definitely get back into that hobby!)
Going to kids' performances. My "younger" (grown now) nieces were active in drama right through college and my friend's little girl (honorary niece) is in dance now. I love going to their shows!
Another vote for Pinterest (and I'll include YouTube as well) - If you don't know how to make a craft or a recipe nowadays, it's so easy to learn how!Creative Memories....I bought the humongous kit and never scrapbooked a day in my lifeCreative things I'm grateful for:
