I was able to make back the money I spent on hotels while traveling but thats about it. Oh well, no need of bitching, **** happens so just have to plan again.
Yes, you are at square one, in a sense. But time passes quickly. Be patient. Learn to tolerate others, and do what you need to in order to collect yourself and move on in a way that allows you to remain dignified, honest, and maintain relationships that you may one day need again.

Best,

It would not be a wise choice to move to FL right now if you don't already have a job here--the economic situation is quite bleak.

I tried to give you a rep point but it wouldnt let me LOL. Thats very true, Sometimes I just get so pissed off at people and wish them away...and then down the line I end up running into them again for something. But I think only my family should I put up with so much **** from. Friends need to be dropped accordingly!

Its hard though, it really is

Didn't you post a thread exactly like this last year?

I thought for sure you were heading back to FLA months ago....

Well if your lease expires in June...there you go, and exit date already!! Plan ahead and leave DFW the minute you can, until then....just smile and be happy that you are working the plan...no sense getting your panties in a bunch over something you have no control over or a mistake you made in the past. Just move forward!

Good Luck

Thankyou LOL....yes I did post a thread like this awhile ago. I still didnt end up moving back although this last time was a slight attempt to do so.

And yea, no need to stay bitter and angry. In fact, I was thinking about this whole moving thing so much that last night I dreamt I had moved back in Miami, at my old 1 room-studio. It scared the **** out of me because having just came back from Miami last month it felt so real! And when I woke up I was just so 'teased' about not being there

I still dont know whether I want to move back or not. One side says "no, the economy" and another side says, "Go, you'll be fine, you know your way around and connections too." Its a constant dilemma that drives me nuts all day, everyday!

Yes the economy is bad but if you have a skill in which you think you have a good chance of finding a job then I wouldn't worry so much about it. As I said you are in a better position then most because you have friends in the area in which you want to relocate, they can help you out looking for a place to live and a place to work.

Now I understand why you were so upset about the car accident. Its all just getting to be too much for you. If your used to living on your own and your family is up in your grill about everything, its very difficult to function.

I get a little unhinged when people become "overly enmeshed" in my life.

HotWire...I just skimmed down over the responses, if i may add my two cents.

I was in your situation with hating where we lived, not being able to sleep ect...Yes the economy is in bad shape, but...it is what you make of it. If you feel strongly about how your feeling, that is more important than money. (yes people i said it..lol) We moved, my husband had a job lined up before we left...got here the job fell through. BUT we absolutely love where we live now, and even with no money...we are much happier and can sleep at night.
You need to decide for yourself which is better and healthier for you. Sure you have debt...but if you wait until thats paid off...what will happen to you mentally. Like i tell others, only you can make that decision, but dont allow the economy to dictate what you do in life, because if you do. You will be stuck for many years to come. Life is too short to allow the economy or anything else to decide life issues for you.
Blessings to you....

I have been in your exact spot. First make a list of the things you need to survive in a new place. I mean bare necessities. Now, will they fit in your automobile? If not trim more or plan on a trailer or cartop type container to hual just what you need.
Now decide where you want to live. Get money up for a temporary room or some such. Now put everthing else you don't need in storage and head out. When you get where your going you can get a spot or roomate type deal and check things out. Now get the feel of the town and when your ready go get your stuff back where you left.
IF that's not the right move go some where's else and try again.
People today think they need all sorts of things to live with them and really they don't.
