[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Sounds wonderful OP! Congrats of now doing what you and DH please. What kind of telecommuting jobs did you find? Do you mind sharing the fields and if F/T or P/T? TIA. Richmond is so awesome - just make sure to do fun explorations/eating out when she comes so she can find some places that will become regular haunts. As you set up new holiday traditions, it will become normal. I agree, they're adults now and will shortly not even be coming around as much anyway.

We will be going through it soon - in the next year or two or three. We sort of warned the kids this will happen but of course it will be a shock especially because we intend to spend part of the year in other countries - probably Spain or Mexico, maybe Costa Rica. We plan to buy them tickets to visit. Not sure how summers/breaks will work though.[/quote]

Thanks.  Work is in software customer support and is totally related to the Government/contracting matrix.  Looking for fun places and regular haunts is an excellent idea -- new traditions and stimulus. Also, we're getting a dog.  Hope that helps.  [/quote]

Encourage her to look for internships or jobs in summer so she can start to make some friends in Richmond.  That will probably make the biggest difference.  Find some nature out there too.  Day trip to Williamsburg, etc.  Also do some airbnb or friend trips back up here so she can connect with friends and visit favorite haunts.  [/quote]
