Oh wow flea!! That’s a lot of choice! How would the kids feel about cape cod? I have lost all track of where they are school-wise. Hopefully it all works out really well?
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

Oh, wow, flea! How exciting, whatever you decide

Dillo is currently a sophomore in high school and is not coincidentally the most opposed to the idea of moving. Casper graduated in may and is currently gap year-ing, although also not making any moves to start applying to schools for next year. She can do that anywhere and loves cape cod.

But also people you’re not supposed to say “wow! That’s a decision all right!” You’re supposed to tell me what to do with my life.

We're better at the "what's for lunch" level of what to do with your life.

That is the very definition of a very big decision. And very good options.

Dang, flea. Would you be able to use a Cape Cod job offer to negotiate better pay or benefits with your current job going full time? Or would the timing not work?
I started checking my work email and calendar to find I've been scheduled for a last-minute 8:30am meeting tomorrow when I'll be lucky if I get home by midnight tonight. I also discovered that I'm On Call tomorrow, when I'm already going to have hundreds if not thousands of emails to get through and have work meetings with lawyers after lunch. I need to pick up prescriptions that I'm completely out of and the pharmacy doesn't open until 9am. I need groceries. I need to not murder all the people who thought scheduling me for this on my first day back was a good idea.

Wow, flea, good luck! I am starting to look more seriously at library jobs in the Northeast (we have GOT to move out of Tennessee) and must admit I am rather envious of your Cape Cod job offer. And also very happy for you, of course! But I totally empathize with the difficulty of weighing the various pros and cons and having to take many other people's preferences into account as well. Hoping for the best outcome for you!
