When my 2nd husband and I met 10 years ago, one of the things we had in common was the desire to move back west, where I’m from, at some point after my kids were finished with school. My parents, who still live on the west side of the U.S., have always been thrilled at the prospect of me moving “home” - a time which is now fast-approaching.
The problem is, close to 6 years ago, my husband and I started frequenting Disney World (was always a Disneyland person prior to this). Over the past few years we’ve started entertaining the idea of moving to Celebration or surrounding community instead of back out west. We’re currently in the South living in a climate very similar to Orlando and we’re both able to tele-commute.
The thought of abandoning the move “home” fills me with terrible guilt. Am I being silly? Over-thinking what my family’s reaction will be to me not moving to be close to them? At this point the ONLY reason I’d move back out west is to be nearer to my extended family. I’ve lived a few states away from them for over 20 years now.
I should add that my oldest is halfway through college through Disney Aspire and plans on working for Disney as a career and wants to live in FL - so a move to Celebration would keep me close to her. We’ll be realistically looking to move in 2 years.
