Looking for the Bright Side

While moving to Florida is something that I am quite certain about doing, that doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of people and things here that I will greatly miss having as part of my daily life. I can get rather maudlin, if I think about it too long, so here are a few good things about leaving.

• No more cold weather. I know, duh, but honestly, if this is my last winter in the northeast, I don't mind that at all. Shoveling, scraping off the car windows, being freezing cold, no more!
• The end of climbing stairs, and needing quarters, to do laundry.
• In recent years, I have spent the majority of my vacation time going to Florida. Now I'll have it to use coming back to visit!
• No more MA allergies! I know, I may be allergic to what Florida has to offer, but I may not. There's hope.

Obviously, this isn't a comprehensive list, just a few things as they occurred to me.
