Right Now: Well I don't know much...it's been hush hush...each first grade class is doing a number. All I know is she had to have a oversized flannel shirt and a baseball cap (no logo TYVM) for her "costume". Oh and her part involves a plunger! I gather she's playing the part of a plumber!

RN I'm probably in the minority but it would be a no brainer for me not to take the job.

Congrats on the job offer whether you take it or not it's got to feel great that you have the option.

RN, thanks, serate. i just don't know if i want to be that far away from my family, especially my mom. and, isn't the cost of living there pretty expensive?

RN depending on where you are from right now it can be extremely expensive.

cost of living calculator [Honolulu was only choice]:

The cost of living in Honolulu is higher than the cost of living in *CND's home town*. If you make $100,000.00 in *CND's home town* and move to Honolulu, you will need to make $132,306.16 ($32,306.16 more) to maintain the same buying power.

RN, I don't know about the cost of living but I moved from Arkansas to Wyoming in 1987 due to an Air Force transfer. It was much too far from my family and I was really never happy there even though I loved it.

Still, Hawaii sounds exciting!

RN I understand about not wanting to move away from your mom. When hubby interviewed for his job we only knew of openings in CA and FL, and my mom was terminally ill. BUt we both had been unemployed for 10 months. What to do what to do, God knew and hubby was given a position only 9 hours away instead of 25 or 38 hour drive.

Right now ... I never moved too far from home either. But Hawaii does sound exciting & it's nice to get the offer ... I'd still turn it down.

RN, are you guys kidding me?! I'd pack up and go in a heartbeat. That is, as long as I get to take my cats. And my dog. And my parents. And my great-nieces. And all my stuff. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot - and Travis.

I'd go, but my family is pretty much gone and my brother actually has a house on Maui, BUT.. couldn't put Critter through that quarantine, so no dice.

Travis would love the geckoes!

RN dh is jonesing to go to Hawaii. in fact, he's ready to start packing. and, he's the one that has been so homesick since he moved here! LOL i've decided to get more info from the guy that made the initial offer as to moving expenses, etc. before i make a final decision. like he said, i had until the 31st.

RN Since Hawaii is rabies free there is a lot of things you have to do to take a pet there. I am not sure how long the quarantine period but it is not easy taking a pet to Hawaii.

RN yep, that one of the many thing dh & i have been talking about - taking our pets. another is what to do with all our stuff - i'm certain they will move me over there but do i really want my stuff hauled over there and back? so many things to consider.

RN, I've watched a lot of those TV shows about renovating, moving, etc. Apparently, it is pretty cost prohibitive to move your furniture to the islands. Most houses are sold furnished as far as I've ever seen.

As long as you stay a member of TVCH, you should live wherever you are happy!

RN dh has been surfing and found that we can get our pets onto the islands in 5 or less days if we start the process 4 months ahead of time. here is the link:

RN I had a friend who built a house on Kauai'i and they found that often the costs of the building materials and such was so high there that they had stuff shippped. And the container was large enough that they included their old subaru 4wd to be used over there. They had their slate brought in from Thailand.

Well that sounds a much better situation for quarantining..

RN I survived the river boat ride - actually had fun - and had the best damn seafood buffet I'd ever been at or dreamed to be at. Chicken and prime rib [my piece was even well done but tender and juicy - no blood!]. I was the only one happy about the menu mix up!
