Why move.

How did I come to this decision? Well I was born and raised in Michigan.  I've spent winter after winter sliding off the road into snow banks. I've piled so many layers of clothes on at once that I looked like the stay puff marshmallow man. I've even had my jeans Freeze into a solid mass around my boots and I'm sick of it. Now there are plenty of people out there that love the snow and all it brings with it. They go skiing or snow boarding in the white stuff. You can find them on the frozen lakes ice skating or ice fishing and there are countless snowmen dotting the front yards as you drive through town. I am not one of those people. When the snow starts falling I will be under a blanket hiding in my house for the next 6 months. Over the years the thought of living someplace that stays warm all year round has crossed my mind many many times. There is always some excuse that i give myself as to why I can't leave. Like I would miss my family or Christmas wouldn't be the same if it wasn't white, I couldn't up root my children and move them someplace where they had no friends or relatives.  Well in less than two years my youngest child will be on their way to college and I can always fly back for Christmas. I have no more excuses.
