I decided to call my mom and ask her. After talking with her I made the decision. We are moving. Probably at the end of October.
Royce needs to go to school in Phx.
We need a place for Shadow.
The kids want to go to school down there. I may even send the girls back to Tempe if I can afford it.
I can't make two house/rent payments, and I'm not ready to sell. Not even sure I could get another house.
And my mom needs me. She needs us. She told me never to make the decision based on her, that she will be fine. She in no way asked me to do this. But I can tell. I feel like I am abandoning her if I am not there. I feel like she adopted me, gave me a good life, and now when she needs someone, I leave. I have to go back.
I have to just think of the time up here as an extended vacation.
Maybe someday.
But right now I gotta go back home.
I have to listen to my heart, and this is what it is saying.

Hey I wrote you on the next post down!!
Royce,
I will probably be getting off at 11 tonight - I hope you get this, let me know. They need to send someone home, overstaffed, and its my turn. Which I was totally ok with. So let me know if you get this. Call me. Hopefully you will know to come get me.
I got it write me back, let me know for sure.
its a very strong, courageous, and admirable decision.
i admire you.
Can't sleep, crap running out of both eyes, 1000 of tylenol didn't even touch my earache, and Tyler doesn't have clothes for tommorrow so I have to stay up and wash clothes anyway, shitty night.
Do what you feel is best. Just promise me you won't put up with any nonsense- K?
I cannot tell you how many times I ran to my mother's rescue only to get slapped in the face repeatedly. I finally had to face the fact that she isn't well. I can't MAKE her well- no matter how hard I try. A little distance between us is healthy.
My heart goes out to you as it's tough to lose someone and relocate. Hang in there!
