Baltimore?

In a really short span of time, we've been attempting to make some life-altering decisions.

Currently my husband is in a dead-end job with the Air Force. Yes, he's got a guaranteed retirement check in 9 years. But if his job continues in the direction it is going, our marriage WILL NOT survive. He's miserable. I'm miserable. We both hate Cheyenne, and the luck we've had since moving here.

So somehow he found a piece of news on Baltimore County Police, who has a seemingly good program for Military folk. Last night we did a pros and cons list to us up and moving to Baltimore (assuming they want him to go to Baltimore and take the test). There was almost an equal number but I'm pretty sure both of us are leaning towards it anyway. I'd love to be closer to family (yes, it's Tony's family but it will ALWAYS be one or the other since our parents will never be close to each other geographically). The schools there have better programs for me. There's a whole list of crap but the main reason, honestly, is that our kids will grow up near family.

So Tony applied. Knowing our luck (ha, ha), they won't even consider him and we'll be stuck here anyway. But, if the off chance it happens that they want him to go to Baltimore and test, we're going to risk it. We only have 4 months to figure out what we're going to do, so unfortunately, time is NOT on our side.

There's so much to take in and do with it, but we have to do something. I'm really hoping God will show me the way, ASAP.
