I really don't know why it's so hard for me. I guess it is because I know my family doesn't travel and I love having company over. I told hubby it will be awhile before we would. I also asked if we did move when could we move back. He simply said when he found a job back home. I know reselling a home isn't all that easy though. So I dunno...

I say go for it hun! You're really not moving too far away, only 3 hours away from where you are now. It wouldn't be that far away to go visit your family for the weekend. Plus if he will be making that much more money and have top notch benefits, you can totally afford to drive down to visit your family!

I think it would be great for you, your hubby, and your baby. Research the towns around his work and find a great safe city (with a great school district) to move to. I mean what's the worst that could happen? It doesn't work out and you move back home where you live now, right? I think you will regret it if you don't take the plunge. Good luck sweetie!

Ok....here is what we decided. Hubby got another offer, the one closer to home, we listed the pros and cons of each and how we would be financially. The job in IL had much more cons than pros once we both sat down and sorted it through. It did pay more but the cost of living is much more so it would basically even out. I didn't push either way. I'm just going with the flow at this point and hubby said he would also be happier close to home. So now it's only going to be an hour move not three hour.

Glad you have it figured out. that is not far from home at all.. but three hours is not far away neither..my daughter lives three hours away from us..would rather be closer, but better then my having to pay her bills..LOL had to say that... anne
