[QUOTE="donna723, post: 292716, member: 1883"] One thing I have learned is that things never stay the same, no matter how much you may want them to, especially when you have grown kids. Who really knows ... there may be more opportunities for Cory and Billy there too some day. But you have raised your kids, they are grown men now, self-sufficient, and it is time to think of what is best for you and for Tony. My ex worked construction for a long time and it was very hard. No insurance or other benefits, no paid leave if they were sick, they didn't work when it rained or when they were between jobs. Not an easy life. This new job sounds like it would be a very good fit for Tony and would be much easier on him physically. I say go for it, or at least give it a trial run to see how it goes. For me, most of the time when I have made a HUGE change, a big leap of faith, did something drastic that I was afraid to do, it ended up working out better than I ever dreamed that it would ... things like uprooting and moving to Tennessee, deciding to end a bad marriage, etc. Some of the best decisions I ever made! Hopefully, it will turn out just as well for you and Tony. [/QUOTE]
