Default (OT) How many times have you moved?

And moving in a sense of changing homes, not getting up from a game of SEIV to get a beer

I will be moving again some 50K's (31 miles) from where i'm living now. House is already sold, new house bought and by the end of the month i'm moving in. My wife and I are busy painting the whole place. It happens to be the house i grew up in (and so the town i grew up in). I'm not sad to leave the town here. Never liked it but we bought a house here because my wife worked here and we couldn't afford a second car so we had to move to a town close to her work or mine.

So first i moved from my home to a place i rented with my wife (was my GF back then). Then from there to the house we bought (in the same town). And now from this house to the new one.
That makes 3 moves in 5 years. Bought 2 houses. (Of course only 1 that i keep, i don't have money for 2 houses )
And i hope i don't have to move for the time to come. I'm no big fan of painting.

I'm just worried about my internet connection. I hope this gets set up very soon because i'll go nuts without the internet.

England to NY about 10 years ago
NY to Des Moines (wife med school)
Des Moines to Milwaukee (wife residency)
Milwaukee to Knoxville, Tn in 2 weeks time.
I hate moving and am sick of it. This wont be the Last move as we are moving into (parents owned) rental property for a year, but it will be the Last state-to-state move.
I hate painting too :-)

Default Re: (OT) How many times have you moved?

As a kid, bounced around Southern California quite a bit, probably about 10 moves in five years. Then moved to Pennsylvania, and bounced around two more times there before settling down for twelve years, and my Last move was to LA for college... so approximately 14 moves in 19 years.

After college, or even during, who knows how many moves. And I'm not counting moving from dorms/apartments, they're all pretty much the same anyway. Studying for a semester at the University of Edinburgh is currently one option... The next decade or so, I won't exactly be settling in one place for to long, I think.

I've moved twice I believe. Once when I was too young to remember. Then moved from that place down to my current place 4 years ago. Its only 5 miles from my old place.
