NWR: GOOD-BYE NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM SO HAPPY AND EXCITED. Today, it was made official that my FH got the OK to transfer to the new Geico in South Jersey, and keep his NY salary. This means.... WE ARE MOVING TO PHILADELPHIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am finally getting off this island, I can't believe it. We will be moving sometime in April to South Philly, right outside of Center City. Bella Vista, or right around the Italian Market area, to be specific. We will be renting a house somewhere in the neighborhood of $950 per month. THAT'S RIGHT.... $950, WHOOOHOOO. Philadelphia rent is the best. I am so excited, I can't even function right now. I finally get to get off of Long Island (can you tell I hate it here?), and live in the city!!!! But yes.... we will come back for the wedding, it will not go on without us, haha. Ahhh, I can't wait... South Street shopping, no tax on clothes, outdoor markets, the art museum, antique row, restaraunts serving food from every culture you could imagine... Ahhhhhhhh.

MA is nice, but I will always be a NYer!

Re: NWR: GOOD-BYE NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!
FH already bought a Phillies hat, lol. He called me yesterday while I was at work, and said, "I just stopped home to tell you it's official, we will be going to Philly-- Now I'm going to Roosevelt Field to get a Phillies hat." He did not waste any time. When it comes to sports, he never wastes any time.

I have days where I completely feel this way. I lived in Virginia for almost 9 years. I love being near my mom, that's a nice change, but I would be THRILLED THRILLED THRILLED to move back down to VA or NC. Ugh. Fh won't move b/c of his job. As I said in another thread, great place to visit. Hate living here. Hate it. Did I mention I hate it. I feel poor and I miss open space and grass.

I hear you sister! This is home, my family is here, and there are certain things I really like about it - but at the end of the day I don't want a dirty subway, crowds, traffic, angry people, and then coming home to my overpriced shoebox in a building that doesn't give me heat with no backyard. I want something better for my kids...
If I was making 6 figures...I would love New York. I just can't be here and be poor.
Grass is essential!!! Try to move near a park...it helped us for awhile.
Good Luck!

Re: NWR: GOOD-BYE NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratualations! Best of luck in your new city. I hear you about NY. I'm not originally from here and don't know how much longer I'll be staying. It is too expensive.

MA is nice, but I will always be a NYer!
I agree with you. We moved to Michigan a year and a half ago, and we HATE it. I can't wait to move back east. I really don't even care where though, as long as it's between DC and Boston. At least then we'll be around culture again.
Funny thing, I was reading something about Philly in last Sunday's paper, and said to FI, I could totally live there! Best of luck!
