Hi, Carolyn. I moved here from central Arizona so I shed my winter clothes over 10 years ago, but thanks for the advice anyways! I moved to Arizona from the Midwest 10 yrs ago and the winters in the Midwest are long and brutal. I felt I had to move to Arizona because in the winter I experienced so much chronic pain that I could not move. It was no life for me any longer. All I could do was lay in bed and it became too depressing. I was addicted to pain killers and benzodiazepines. I got off all drugs while in Arizona. Arizona was better for my health, but then my son moved to Charlotte with my grandbabies during COVID times . . . I moved here having never been on the east coast. Took a big leap of faith. My grandbabies make my life worth living! It has been a culture shock to be honest. I have been to Myrtle
Beach with my son and his family to see the ocean. It is amazing, peaceful and I felt at home in Myrtle Beach!

I love Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. Do not know how old your grandbabies are but they have a really nice library just for kids. It is called Imaginon downtown Charlotte. I was during my previous life a librarian and remember before and when it opened and was very new years ago. You are in a really nice place to find things to do. Raleigh, Ashville, and the beaches are all nice places. I am glad you have found a place of peace at Myrtle Beach. I have not been in years since it has become a popular tourist spot. You are brave and taking a big leap of faith I hope this finds you feeling continued courage, and strength and enjoying your son and family, especially your grandbabies. They have a way of motivating a continued journey to a hopefully better life indeed.
