Help! I am beginning the process of remodeling a bathroom and am overwhelmed already.

30. I'm in a NE suburb of Detroit.

Lived in North Carolina for ten years prior to this.

With age comes wisdom and what I've learned from living in different states is that you just can't paint a state in broad brushstrokes. There's good weather and bad weather in most states (or maybe some states just have boring weather), good people and bad people everywhere, good schools and bad schools, etc. etc. You just have to find a place where you can meet like minded folks.

I swore I'd never move to the South and yet looking back, it was the best experience in many ways. I got to see so many of the southern states both through work and vacations. When I left NC to move to Michigan, I couldn't get away from the rednecks fast enough, only to find out there are plenty of them here in the northern part of the state.

What I miss most about NC is the geography of the place. It has so much to offer in that respect.
