BIGGEST MISTAKE: MOVING TO FLORIDA

[@peggyjones5494]

Tomorrow it will be are one year anniversary of us moving to the Villages from California. We love it here. Thank you Linda and Jerry for your Videos it’s because of you we moved here. Merry Christmas. Love you guys

I ma a retired Endodontist (40 years in the field) so: The crown may be loose because there is decay around it. In this case you may need a root canal and another crown. The x rays were a good call. Without them the dentist is guessing. If you don’t trust the general dentist, let an Endodontist test the tooth to see if it is infected before recementing the crown on top of a possible abscess. Most dentists have a good heart and they want the best for you. Don’t assume it’s about the money. Love you guys.

Merry Christmas Jerry and Linda! Thank you for bringing us joy all year long. Enjoy every moment of your extra full house. Linda, the tree and gifts look glorious. ❤

Thank you Amy! Merry Christmas!

I’ve moved 10 times in my life due to transfers with employment, life changes, house buying. I’ve found I can live just about anywhere (within reason) and be content. It’s what you make of it. One time I moved into a place when my husband and I separated and it upset my mother because it was a huge step down from where I was. It was temporary and I moved again about 7 months later. I wasn’t sad in that house until I looked through my mom’s eyes. Anyway, if you’re a miserable person you’ll be miserable anywhere and everywhere. Unfortunately you have to take yourself with you wherever you go. Being sad, unhappy and miserable takes too much energy. Be content. By the way, have a wonderful Christmas with your family. I know you will.

[@joyscadden5438]

We have our 3 sons and families here for Christmas and we are so happy you will have all of your family together too. You look like you are back to your normal healthy selves. Have a wonderful holiday season!!!! ❤

Don't be too rough on Reggie. There's nothing wrong with observing the niceties we were taught way back when manners mattered.🙂

[@billredding2000]

True...I was brought up to remove a hat when indoors. Same as when I was in the military. And when I was teaching, did not allow hat-wearing in my classroom. However, those were the "Olden Days" and things change...but for me they don't as I still observe the "old ways" (1950s etiquette I guess)...that is, if I can remember it all at my "advanced" age (I'm older than youngsters Jerry & Linda)! ;-) -- BR

[@landahoy5217]

They definitely are youngsters. Love those olden days 😊still eat my pizza with a fork

[@billredding2000]

@@landahoy5217 Well, it seems most people nowadays (especially younger) were never even taught how to hold/use a knife & fork properly -- they look quite crass/uncouth. I find their complete lack of table manners disturbing. -- D. Vader

Merry Christmas! Enjoy having your family visit. We're so fortunate to have our son, DIL, and grandchildren living right across the street from us here in Windermere, Florida. And our other son and DIL living a short drive away in Orlando. 🎄

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Merry Christmas to you too! That’s wonderful about your family!

[@susanroberts1054]

I had the same experience at my previous dentist. They always wanted to upsell for different procedures, whitening etc.. When I told them "I would think about it" they said "if i didnt want to follow the plan of care I could go elsewhere". I left. I was told they are corporate run dentist offices. Some feedback on the pet peeve show, it was just too chaotic and hard to follow. Wasnt my favorite. Have a great holiday!!

The only thing worse than dentists is dental insurance! It hardly pays anything toward our dental bill. We may end up self insuring next year.

Hey guys. Happy Monday and Eve of Christmas Eve. Oh Christmas will be amazing with the family. You guys have been busy 🎄🎁. We are freezing here in NY. 17 with a high of 25 😂. 60’s sounds amazing. Wow. That barn question. Folks really rude behind a keyboard 😢. You guys have a thick skin. Wonderful you let the rude comments roll off your back. Peter Bernard can do a workshop of home maintenance. Adorable Pomeranian. Ooo. Mexican out & about. I love burritos 🌯 etc but like them dry. Not smothered in cheese and sauce. Like it on the side and dip 😂. Don’t know if I can handle salty. The barn was salty enough. Have an amazing Christmas with your family ☃️🎄🎁❤️

[@devangel3614]

I think that you really need to follow the advice TFN has given many times --lifestyle visits, even multiple ones and research BEFORE you move. I had seriously considered moving to TVF, but after long thoughts about it, realized that I personally would never be happy in TVF. I love the idea of dancing in the squares, all the clubs and activities. The reality is that I have always lived on the Coast, don't golf and am unlikely to take up pickleball and would hate 95+ degrees with equal humidity. I think over time, it would be a poor choice for me. But for many without my need for being under 5 miles from the nearest beach, its fabulous. Thank goodness a certain virus gave me time to really consider things that would send me packing. But I still love my Florida Newcomers and all their adventures ❤

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

[@luhoffma8836]

It seems with real estate prices dropping, people (who moved to Florida in 2021) are stuck there.

[@tweetybird7668]

J&L, just saying, I have the original American Standard AC unit for 35 years and never once did I have it serviced. There’s not much to service, it’s a blade and a motor and compressor. The A/C Service Company looks at it and checks the compressor and then sends out a bill. The A/C Company can only tell you that you might have a problem in the future. I wouldn’t spend the money, If there’s ever a problem with your A/C unit you will be the 1st to know, then call for Service. As an example I don’t know any one that has their refrigerator serviced 2x a year, and it runs 24 hrs a day.

[@tweetybird7668]

Also, the paint on a A/C unit is baked on enamel, all you need to do is pressure wash the green algae from the surface. But if people want to polish it like paint on a car go for it but it doesn’t make it last longer, remember you are not driving that A/C unit thru salt like a car.

[@kikilynn1167]

I've lived around the country, and it seems like dentists and also veterinarians everywhere are always trying to upcharge people. They take a simple procedure and turn it into a big payday for themselves.

Would you do a segment on smoke alarms and how to shut them off when cooking. Just a little cooking smoke sends them into a frenzy. With all the snow birds I would expect smoke alarms with low batteries would be going off constantly. Mine always goes off in the middle of the night.

I've worked in prisons for over 20 years (soon to retire, and heading to Middleton) and the best part about living near a prison is this: if someone does escape, do you know what their plan is? Get as far away from the prison as possible!

Biggest mistake is not doing research. Folks need to know that you are paying more for less space than what you were used to so that you could be in the sun near all year recreational activities. However, you will have less space and pay more for it. The bottom line is its all up to what you value.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

It is definitely a trade-off!
