Moving Pays Off for My Purse, Professional, and Personal Life

Exactly one week ago I moved into a

 new home that is twice as big as the old home and yet is the same rent!

The difference? Location. Location. Location.

Moving to a different part of the city afforded me a larger single family home for the same price as my town home in an upscale zip code.

Granted, I gave up the convenience of having every stores and restaurants in walking distance. So now the four mile drive feels like a very long journey that I have to pack a lunch for, but we will survive.

Money is not the only reason I moved. In fact I have three other reasons.

1. Be closer to family

2. Bigger space to entertain family and friends

3. Be closer to my beau/sweetheart

Be Closer to Family

Family is important to me especially my siblings. When I lived north of the city I was almost an hour away. This didn’t make for good relationship building.

I enjoy my family and wanted to be closer to them. I want my son and nephews to see each other more. I want to see my sister and brother more.

This move also shaves off a half hour from my drive to my parents house.

Entertaining Family and Friends 

Moving into a larger home works for me because now I will have enough space to have people over for dinners and overall entertaining.

I now have a family room, a deck area, and an extra bedroom. That space will accommodate many more people than in the townhouse.

I’m not only closer to my family, in most cases I’m closer to my friends.

Closer to my Sweetheart

Last but not least, I’m closer to my sweetheart. He lived 4.5 miles away now.

Even though he happily came to see me every week it was getting to be a bit much.

He didn’t want me to drive the long distance at night because he was concerned for my safety. When I did visit it was tiring to drive back and forth.

Now it’s a 7-10 minute drive with traffic lights. The bonus is he is a handyman so I can get things fixed.

Bonus Reason #4

I almost forgot about another reason I moved into a bigger place.

I now have a spare bedroom for my office space.

Sitting on my bed or using the kitchen table was not working anymore. The distractions were constant so it will be nice to have a door to close and space to spread out and contain my ideas.

Having my own office space is awesome because I can now do more coaching in private, create amazing courses, create video or do live streaming, or simply hide away and enjoy my Blyss Life🎉🎉.
