[quote=Anonymous]Life here in DC seemingly is built on a house of cards. We are doing okay day to day but when one major catastrophe hits we are thrown for a loop and it takes us weeks to recover. I think this is mostly due to the fact that we have no family help in the area. We have friends and neighbors but family help is completely different. Obviously we are all stuck home right now with the pandemic but we also recently had a stomach virus that wreaked havoc on our family and I realized that we have nobody to help when push comes to shove. My family lives 6 hours away and DH's family isn't really of any help. Has this past year made you realize it might be worth it to move closer to family? My whole family lives in the same place, grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles and cousins. We would have a ton of help if we moved to my hometown but I am reluctant to uproot our whole family (3 kids - 1 in kindergarten) to somewhere I haven't lived since I was 18. [/quote]
