There are several hoops I would have to jump through. I need a divorce from Wifey. I need a job and I need a green card, unless I want to spend time crossing back and forth across the border. I would also like to clear off my debt, and that would be the toughest item to check from the list.<BR/><BR/>I would be putting this in motion without any certainty of what the future really holds. But I'll do it because it's what I ultimately want.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09519879143568413067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26062571.post-41849015150538627152007-07-28T17:51:00.000-04:002007-07-28T17:51:00.000-04:00I imagine moving would be worrisome, but if you di...I imagine moving would be worrisome, but if you did the research into possible career changes (we have free career counselling here) and found a nice little town where the cost of living was reasonable and the people were kind, it'd be okay.<BR/>Sometimes even just the consideration of a change sets the goal in motion.becomingkatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01233315426856228689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26062571.post-37016394532286237042007-07-27T22:13:00.000-04:002007-07-27T22:13:00.000-04:00I agree.

Not often enough to make me regret moving. <BR/><BR/>I'm in the habit of moving every once in awhile. It is not so bad when you are used to changing everything.
