I know now, And want move..any advice

OK,,,ever since we got back from Alberta visiting my girls and new grandson,,and my sister and her family,,,I KNOW NOW,,that I want outta here,,,I want to be there were my Family is,,,We live in BC and it would be a big move to Alberta if we did...
Since I got home I have now figured our what is wrong,,I have been soo bored and slightly depressed now for some time,,and didn't realize it totally..But now I know,,,I have nothing here anymore,,Friends at home here are few and far between, most of my good friends are soo busy with their own families etc that we rarely see each other,,hubby gets up and is gone to work before I ever get up,,when he gets home he eats his dinner and goes to bed,,,so then once again I am all alone,,,
So I have mentioned it to David he hasn't said much,,but maybe he doesn't realize how serious I am,,,So will have to talk with him more and make him see reason,,,
His job is no great thing,,he could easily get another job there ,,and so could I,,,but the big thing would be the move,,OMG over 10yrs here we have accumulated soo much stuff,,,although when I look in my house there is a lot of stuff I would just take to the dump..the biggest things to worring about moving is all the stuff hubby has,,down in the barn....To sell our house and buy another there..so yeh our lives could be really crazy for a long time until we settled there...but I don't care now is the perfect time to make a move like this cause,,we aren't getting any younger...
But Yeh,,,gonna get talking seriously to David cause I do so want to move,,,I admit it is not going to be easy,,we both have lived here all our lives,,,but I want my girls more.
Anyhow,,,just wanted to bounce this off all of you and see what you all think....
Thanks For Being here for Me Girls

Something else to think about. BTW, I know exactly how you feel. We had moved to another town, kids complained bitterly that it was so inconvenient to drive for 45 minutes every time they wanted to see us. It was not long distance by phone, however. Anyway, we moved back to town, and since then two of the three of them have moved somewhere else anyway. LOL LOL LOL

Not thats not funny them all moving after you all moved,,,Our girls are all a province away,,,and it is a 9hr job. Alberta is just a far better place to work and has more opportunities,,,there are not opportunties for young people in BC at all,,for example,,,if you worked in the McDonalds which is closest to our home,,your would be lucky to make $8.50 an hr. yet in Alberta ,,McDonalds pays $14. an hr,,,employers in Alberta appriciate their employees far more then in BC...that is why none of my daughters will come back home...

The thought of moving scares me after 20 years.. but...
I was thinking Cindy... Perhaps you can look on the bright side of "being alone" (I long for alone time)and maybe in another year or so you will be the "top poster" on Family Corner!

Good luck Cindylee whichever way you end up staying or going. I moved here over 2 yrs ago now and it is a 1 story which is mandatory for me now. It was hard deciding what had to go and what I could bring etc. BUT I am here now and like it and don't want to move ever again.

Well good luck with David (my younger son is a David) and hope once you move things will settle down quickly and your kids stay in the area. God bless

I am in Ontario, but I have heard that jobs are very good in Alberta. Actually, my oldest son is an officer with RCMP at Grande Prairie, Alb. He was with the Toronto Police Force for 22 yrs. when he decided to make a huge move.
