☕ Weekend Mimi Thoughts: Before You Move Closer…
Happy weekend, ladies! I've been reading a LOT of comments from grandparents who moved closer to their adult kids, only to have their kids divorce. Now they're living somewhere they don't particularly want to be, and the whole reason they moved has changed. And it got me thinking about something I didn't include in my Moving Closer Guide. How solid is your adult child's marriage or relationship (or maybe even yours)? I know. Nobody wants to think about their kids getting divorced. And I'm certainly not suggesting you sit them down and ask for their five-year marriage forecast. 😂 But divorce happens. Jobs change. Custody arrangements change. Grandkids sometimes move away. Before you sell your house, leave your friends, and start packing boxes, consider the risks. And have a Plan B. Here's a question worth asking yourself: If your adult kids divorced tomorrow, and your grandkids ended up living somewhere else, would you still be happy living where you moved? Because that's a BIG decision to make based on circumstances you don't control. I'm not trying to talk anyone out of moving closer. I did it myself! But I want you to think about the things that don't always make it onto the pros and cons list. NEXT WEEK: We're turning this conversation around. When should you consider moving BACK or moving AWAY from your adult kids and grandkids? I have four years of personal experience with that one. 😂 ❤️ Let's talk! Have you considered what would happen if your adult child's relationship changed after you moved? Or has this happened to you? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Looking forward to this discussion. We moved just 50 miles closer to our very young grandchildren after losing our son to ALS. It hasn’t turned out exactly how we thought it would.
🎉 IT’S WINSDAY! 🎉
Okay, before you scroll past this, tell me ONE good thing that happened in your life this week. Seriously. What made you smile? What are you proud of? What did you finally do? What went better than expected? I want to know what’s happening with YOU. ❤️ And your win does NOT have to be huge. Maybe you had the conversation you’ve been avoiding. Maybe you called the grandkids instead of waiting for them to call you. Maybe you made plans with a friend. Maybe you tried something new. Maybe you said NO without writing a 14-page dissertation explaining yourself. 😂 Or maybe you did one little thing that made you feel more like YOU. It counts. We’re so quick to move on to the next thing that we forget to stop and say, “Hey. I did that.” So today we’re stopping. 🙌 👇 Tell me your win from this week. Big. Small. Funny. Unexpected. I want them ALL. And while you’re here, find someone else’s win and give them a little love too. ❤️ Happy WinsDay! 🥳
