[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 659863, member: 18958"] A hybrid plan. Go with the 3 animals for 6 months or so, getting an apartment, to see if we can handle the winter and like it. Then, if we do, think longer term. We live in a small city, under 100k, although both of us are from very large cities. While living here is comfortable, there is nothing that beckons me to leave the house. And even if I decide to change that, I want more than this city has to offer. I have gone through a hard time, and need to feel again, that life has possibility. And for me big cities, like NYC offer possibility. While I cannot afford to live there, we can afford to live within commuting distance. That is what we hope to do. It sounds like it is doable, but we have got to get the dogs on a schedule. And with that handled the other hard parts will be the trek and then, the interim period while we look for a place. (We're still talking dog-centricly here.) I have been to the East Coast, mainly NYC, but only marginally to this city where we hope to go. That part does not bother me. It is mostly the animals. As I write this I am feeling it sure would be nice no longer to be a main character in my son's chaotic day to day saga. I will miss him and worry about him. But I can do that from afar. Thanks for the info and support, Echo. What breed are your dogs? [/QUOTE]
