It may be time to at least start thinking about relocating.
We can’t afford to. We also both have elderly mothers who are still living on their own but may not be for long. My mother is 82. Hers is in her late 70s and has lupus.
Sounds like you guys are living with some considerable stress… Sorry. I hope it all works out okay for you all.
Thanks, I appreciate it. Aren’t most of us these days though?
For sure but we’re all in this together and like my wife always likes to say when I downplay my problems and stresses, it’s not a competition :)
Definitely. And I’m glad there are still enough of us that we have a chance of making a change!
There are plenty of affordable places to live in Illinois.
I agree, however, the further we get into Illinois, the further away we get from our mothers.
Also, the closest Illinois towns to us are Marshall, Paris and Casey and I don’t know if I could take living in a town as small as any of those.
Effingham, Champaign/Urbana, and Bloomington/Normal are not that much further. I would personally pick blono as cost of living is cheaper with better job prospects than Champaign/Urbana. Effingham is going to be much more like Indiana.
Further enough that if there is an emergency, it would take way too long to get to our mothers. They’re already a 70-minute drive in the opposite direction.
