country mouse, city mouse

I decided to stay home (Plan A), yet I am faced with the decision to move again. It all seems so complicated and overwhelming. I am tired of the intensity. This option comes with crazy timing... out of my house in 9 days or less.

The question is more about the city vs. the country. Can I live out in the country and still be close to my beloved neighborhood friends? Am I trying to escape the unsettled feelings of loss around my job and work community? Is it a good idea to be so isolated? Will I feel more unsettled once I am alone or will I move through this transition more effectively in a different space?

I recognize the desire to start fresh. Love the property there, hate it here. Mostly hate the house there... mostly love my house here. Love the space there, hate being cramped here. Kids will love it either place...

I have been saying for years that I wish I could move to the country. Now there is a chance and it is all crazy and hard to discern.
