I have a funny feeling you moved ‘south’ to Florida. You are so right, it is NOT southern here. We miss that, too. We actually loved it much more when we lived in upstate New York for two years! How is that for a strange place for two Alabama-raised folks! Sorry you’re struggling. Hoping things will begin to look up. And way to go with the determination to have a better attitude. I understand what that struggle can be like, too. I enjoyed reading, thanks for sharing!
