Re: Does anyone here live somewhere other than Long Island?

We miss our families thats about it. The only reason why we are moving back is this will be the first granchild, and greatgrandchild and niece/nephew.

We want to be around our family for that. However, it requires us to move back home with mom and dad. We have decided that I won't work and there is no way to afford a mortgage.

Shh, don't tell Ron and Liz but neither DH nor I are from LI or even ever liverd there! I initially joined LIW because we were getting married on LI and that was the place to come for advice! I got most of my vendor recommendations through LIW! A friend who was on LIW recommended it as a good resource. After the wedding I came over here and I haven't looked back Chat Icon

I think I live the farthest away in California.



I'll be moving to california when the baby comes. DH moved there 12/6 for his job. Its been hard.

We moved from LI to Raleigh, NC. We don't miss LI but we miss our families. We are happy we made the move.

I don;t miss LI. I was there visitng last week, staying with family in Merrick and to me Merrick looks like Queens now. Everything is just so old and dirty. I'm not used to that. Everything around me is new surburban development. I miss the pizza and bagels....thats about it.

Re: Does anyone here live somewhere other than Long Island?

wow! Its so nice to see others that don't live there like myself :) I do however miss it. I miss the food more than anything. No good pizza here, bagels are gross...I enjoyed DC for the past 2 years...the experience of living here but i miss my family. A lot. I love DH and know he's my family...but its difficult not being around my mom and brothers/sisters...

wow! I had no idea so many were from LI and had moved at some point. do you gys miss it? DH and I talk about leaving here some day ---soo expensive, but I dont know...Chat Icon



HE!! No I don't miss it! I miss the people I left behind, but I do NOT miss the cost of living, working my butt off just to survive, or the chip-on-the-shoulder attitude of NYer's.

We would STILL be living in my IL house after being married 2 years if we were still there with not even a thought of having a baby!

Re: Does anyone here live somewhere other than Long Island?

Both of us are from LI but we live in FL now.
Like others, the only thing I miss is family and the food.
I don't miss the attitudes, the dirty feel, the rush, the traffic, the pollution ect.

Where is Cali? The first six months are hard but then you fall in love with the weather and never can go anywhere else!
