A native Californian transplanted to southern Illinois.I've been meaning to give a quick update on all that has happened since relocating.
I absolutely love my new job. I get to do all of the accounts receivable and payable, balance the bank accounts, and now I am working on costing products. It is super fun. 
Then about a month ago, both my daughter and my son were both hired for temporary production labor. Right at that time, our HR person left the company. My daughter applied and ended up getting the job. Her office is now right next to mine and we drive to work together every day.
I was invited to go with my daughter-in-law to an ultrasound, so I got to see my grandson on the screen. That was a wonderful experience. My daughter-in-law is now 35 weeks, so not too much longer to wait.
Next week I am going on a trip with one of my oldest friends. We met when we were in the 3rd grade together. A couple of other friends too, there will be 4 of us. We are going to Niagara Falls and to Nova Scotia.
I really like my little house and am happy with my nice quiet neighborhood.
So all in all, I am very glad I made this move. I had to take on a bit of debt and raid my Roth IRA to make it work, and I am certainly earning much less money, but it was the right decision nonetheless.
