(23,156 posts)that when I read about fires in California or hurricanes in the south, to think that those who moved there and were so smug because they'd escaped the Hell of Winter, deserve it. I've refrained from saying that before this, but there you have it.
There is so much more to life than having to shovel snow off your car in the winter. That's not fun. I know, I've done it. But there are so many other things that matter in life, that it should be only one of a number of things to think about.
Of course, I'm a lot luckier than many people because I'd already lived in several different parts of the country when divorce presented me with the opportunity to move absolutely anywhere I wanted. For a while the fact that I could go absolutely anywhere, was paralyzing. I finally eliminated some otherwise appealing places, looked at both the east coast and the Pacific Northwest before deciding on Santa Fe, where I currently live.
