True and you can visit your home state.

I wouldn’t want that

 

[Jimmy]

Do you have friends in your home state?

Perhaps you could go and visit them?

Yeah but it’s to far to visit plus I don’t like traveling

 

[JustGeorge]

If you go home, can you visit often, or will your family visit you?

 

[Jimmy]

They probably would visit once a year

VISIT. It's very difficult to move back home.

 

[Eddi]

Maybe you could reside in your home state but spend extended periods with your family?

 

[Kathryn]

Maybe you could reside in your home state but spend extended periods with your family?

Or vice versa!

 

[Eddi]

Or vice versa!

Yes!!!

But KP said he doesn't like travelling

 

[Jimmy]

What do you mean?

 

[Kathryn]

What do you mean?

What I mean is that things change a lot so VISIT before you decide.

Your family is most important, particularly if you are so close. But missing your home is a drag and may play on your mind which could cause resentment and strife.

So how about taking a flight there every now and again, see old friends, have some fun then head back to the family until next time.

Well I know my home well so I wouldn’t have to visit.

 

[Kathryn]

Well I know my home well so I wouldn’t have to visit.

You said that it's too far away from where you are now and that you don't like visiting anyway. But I encourage you to visit - maybe fly there in fact.

How long ago did you move from there?

Chicago has it’s own set of assets that are wonderful and unique. Have you been seeking them out, or just pining for what you knew in the past?

Also, it’s easy to make weekend trips into the countryside around Chicago. My friend and I used to drive up to Manitowoc Wisconsin and take the SS Badger car ferry across Lake Michigan to Ludington, stay over night there, and drive down through rural Michigan and around the bottom of the lake back to Chicago the next day. Lots of very different environments to experience in just one weekend. A sea voyage, a drive through the forrest, and the distopisn hellscape of Garry Indiana all in two days.

But even in the city there were great things to see and do … terrific live music, theater, art events, you name it. And most of it inexpensive if you‘re willing to research and explore a little. Try going to some art gallery openings when they start in the fall. They’re free and guaranteed to be very interesting. Especially the smaller galleries.

I’ve done and seen a lot here.

Things can change a LOT in that amount of time. I would definitely visit first, before you make up your mind.

How long have you been there? Maybe your getting burned out on the city. That happens, too.

I lived in Chicago for 23 years, and loved it. But eventually, as I got older, like you, I longed for the peace and quiet of my hometown and family back in PA.

 

[Kathryn]

You are opposed to visiting your home state for some reason and yet you think you may want to move back there, though it's been 7 years since you lived there. Personally, that sounds crazy to me but you may want to do it anyway. Alrighty then.
