So as I posted a while back, we packed up, sold our house, and everything else we could sell and moved to Florida. Very stressful for the wife and I as I left a 10 year job/ career where I was ranked #2-3 in revenue earners out of 50+ US employees making awesome money and only working about 20 hrs a week, my wife left her work from home position from a major hospital in the Chicago land area, for us to move here with no jobs lined up or even looked while we in lombard.
it was stressful for sure and a lot has happened to us family wise as I lost my dad 2 years ago at the age of 67, watched him pass away in less then 90 days was a hard thing for me to be around as I never lost anyone close to me before. Then eariler this year my wife lost her father at 67 also which was kinda chilling thinking about it. at that moment we said fuck it and let get moving as life is short and I dont want to wait till i retire etc.
So the last 2 months has been good for us so far, stressed some but nothing major at the moment and can still go several months with out working which has been a plus knowing we are all good their.
with not working we have been pretty Stress free, feels good as I have been non stop working since I was 15 and have only gone 24-48hrs with out a job Before starting my next one.
hard at times as I know work is in the near future here for both of us, kids starting Remote learning on Monday is stressful enough as I need to brush up on my 4th grade math lol.
I learned over the last few years for at least me, is live now and don’t worry all that much about the future, enjoy what you can with who you can as you never know what Tommorow will bring. I don’t want to live the life of “ I should have “ I want to live “ I did that”
as for this group this is my only Outlet for social media one would say, I don’t Facebook ( wife does and since moving to Florida she has started a you tube channel and blog of all we have done lol ) I dont Instagram Or Snapchat. This group overall is a great group of people I feel, the topics are awesome, the responses are great, and the comical value keeps me laughing which laughter helps everyone. Glad to be here!
tv wise I only get in about 2 hours a day or so. A few minutes in the am mostly local news, evenings some more local news, maybe catch up on some shows on motor trend tv etc. seems like since we moved here we have been a lot more active as in being outside. Wife and I have been trying to bike10-15 miles daily, we are at the beach walking several days a week, just today we put in 8k in steps at the beach walking it. I know once jobs start back up we won’t have all the Freetime like now but we have set up some rules of what we need to do as a family daily weekly monthly and the same goes for my wife and I as couple and doing things with out the kids and enjoying our time.
