Update.

I have 2 weeks now till my internship starts. I am really excited about that. The bad news is that I don't have a place in Florida yet. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I was down there two weeks ago, and I have some places in mind. The day after I came back to Tennessee something really sad happened. My husband's mother passed away. This has been really devestating for both of us. I haven't been able to to put my mind on packing or getting ready to ago. So I am really nervous about what I'm going to do.
Clarence (my dh) hasn't been able to help me with this because he now has the daunting task of having to settle his mother's estate.

I am still really excited about moving to Florida. I think this will be good for both of us, and I hope that a change will help heal our broken hearts.

Oh, Valerie, I am so sad to hear about your mother-in laws' passing. This must be such a hectic time for you. I will cross my fingers that you get a place in Florida soon. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss Valerie. You and your husband will be in my thoughts and prayers. I agree, though, the move to Florida will be good for both of you, in time.

Re: I got the internship!!!!!!

I am sorry for the loss of your MIL..I agree this move is probably the best thing for you guys!

Have you thought about staying at an extended stay hotel for a a few weeks until you get settled down there? I did that for about a month when I moved (granted only an hour away) to a new town all by myself and I thought it was helpful. It was a little more expensive than I liked but I got to take my time and find somewhere to live.

Re: I got the internship!!!!!!

Oh Valerie I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your MIL. My heart goes out to you and your DH - I hope that this move and a chance of pace will heal all!

I second Bella's suggestion to stay in an extended stay motel while you look for a place to live. They are not ideal price-wise, but it is certainly better than having nowhere to go, or shelling out money for a motel that charges nightly rates!

DH and I did this both times we moved to California, and it worked well for us. (We had a lot of fun feeling like we were kind of still "on vacation" while we were staying at the extended stay place too. )

Good luck finding a place, and good luck with your internship!

Sorry about your sad news! Change will do you good! Pixie dust and good luck with the move . . . I moved 3x in 3 years . . . not fun!

Set yourself a goal . . . I used to get up in the am and make 10 boxes and I just said to myself . . . they MUST be packed BEFORE you go to bed . . . that way it wasn't so overwhelming!

When we moved from NJ to FL, we just put our stuff in storage and rented a short term furnished apt . . . with foreclosures and the market there are plenty to choose from . . . we only had to sign for 3 months at a time . . . which FLEW by . . . but we got to know the neighborhood and decided we liked it!


I just recently purchased a house . . .

Re: I got the internship!!!!!!

Thank you everyone for the support and kind thoughts. This is such a nice forum with so many nice people.

I am considering an extended stay in Clermont and looking for apartments in that area. I wish I could find a private condo to rent.

This year has felt like such a roller coaster in not a good Space Mountain kind of of way.

I really do wish you the best of luck - hopefully this roller coaster is about to slow down for you, and things will mellow out soon!

Re: I got the internship!!!!!!

I got an email yesterday with instructions on where to check in for the internship. I found it kind of funny. All professional interns are checking at Pleasure Island at the Adventurer's club. That is an interesting place to start a new job. I have to be there at 9:00am. I'm assuming that day will be a lot of orientation and filling out paperwork.
