So then I moved to a smaller city for a couple of years and then to another small city and was there for 16 years.

We were very well established, the children had lots of good friends, Sue had a large network of friends through school and church, I had a good job.

But first I gave up my job to go self employed (risky with 2 young children and a mortgage to pay) and then we decided to pull up our roots and move back to my home town.

At every step each move was the right one to make. Sometimes you just have to take a risk.

I was glad I moved away and I was glad to move back.

Incidentally one big motivation for moving back was to look after my elderly parents – that wasn’t the only reason, though. It was also the right move for us as a family. Now the children go to the same school that Sue and I went to and even some of the teachers are the same.

After all that the only advice I can give is to go with what you think is right at the time.

Having said that (and this is going to be a major teaser because this isn’t in my blog) moves are afoot to make some BIG changes in the coming months much along the lines you’re talking about.
Shhh, I didn’t say that and I’d appreciate no comments about it in my blog either – they’ll just get removed!

Anyway I therefore say go for it!

All my family is there, all my connections, and all my comfort. Then I had found an entry level job here. It didn't pay much more than what I was making at the time, but it would be something different. I was excited and fearful all at the same time. I took the plunge and moved, worked my way up the ladder, and have never looked back. It was the best thing I have done. I found many new friends, fell into the job that I have now and love, and haven't been happier. I can't speak for you, but for me it was the best thing I have done. You have one big thing where your are at now, job security. If it pays the bills, you like it, you are liked, and it is always going to be there no matter what, that is hard to leave. I know have all of those things, and I don't think I could move away. <br/><br/>That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Hopefully I'll find something in maybe Atlanta or Charleston -- somewhere... we'll see. As for the Phoenix area, I have a friend that works for a company there and he's often telling me to move and come work with him. I can't think of the name of the place right now -- when it comes to me I'll tell you what the company is... :) He moved there from here -- he used to work with me.
