Ok, I am currently faced with a huge decision and thought I would get some imput from everyone on here.
Because of the latest issues with my job and all I have been tossing around the idea of moving back to where my family is. There are many pro's. My son would have cousins to play with, I would be around my mom, more jobs, more family....
The cons are being closer to the family, being closer to my mom, never liked living there...
Anyways, any advice is welcome!!

Repochick, do you have friends and people to support you where you are at? Sorry if I don't know your whole story, I'm sorta new, but I've seen some of your posts. If your family lives in a small town, maybe there's a bigger city close by (but not too close!) that would have better job opportunities you could relocate to. Close enough to visit family and friends, but far enough away to have your own life!? I've moved 'back home' after being away from my home turf, and it is a hard thing to do. Things will have changed, and it could be for the better or worse. Writing down your pro and cons is a good way to start! Good luck girl

Menace, I currently live 800 miles from my family!! I have a few close friends here but not enough to help out if and when things really get rough!!! That is why the idea of going home might be better. Its just that I spent 21 years trying to get out of there and now I might have to go back!!

Repo, I was faced with the same issues when I got my divorce. It is hard to deside. I love my family, but farther away makes me love them a little more, but it is hard with out there close love and support. I stayed mostly because of my job and keeping my little one close to her dad, but if not for those two things I would have moved back to my friends and family. You need to do what is best for you in your heart.

Thanks Twins....Its a very hard choice for me because it means being close to a bunch of people with serious issues that I only get along with in short intervals!!! Then again I wouldnt be missing out on all my cousins kids growing up and watching all my aunts and uncles becoming grandparents too..... Hell I dont know what to do....Its just soooo damn cold up there!!! LOL

repo,move close enough to back home that you can get the support but far enough away that the family's not on yer door step every day,like the next town over.

For me the biggest problem is the damn cold....6 months out of the years there is snow and cold weather....I like seasons but not the snowy kind!! The last white Christmas I had was back in 2001 and I havent missed it a bit!!!

Before you decide. Why dont you check with All the pay-by-the-week auto sales places,and the title loan companies, Some of them may have their own trucks that you could use if they needed help repoin. Many of them keep copy's of the keys also where you just grab-and-go(don't really know the laws in your state) I'm sure if you dont want to go there may be another option

I have actually been checking into all that but I cheated as a repo agent. I rarely ever had to work at night. Actually I never HAd to but when I wanted to they let me...I know its easier to pick up cars at night and that is my time with my son!!!

If you move back there, but have enough distance from the family, I think it would be a good thing. But if you have to move real close to them.... LOL RUN!!!! But seriously, you might be happier being a lil closer to your family. Knowing that you have that support is comforting. I wish you luck in making your decision.
