I just had a thought concerning the S once it happens. I was thinking about what I'm going to do financially, and also how this is going to affect our S.
I am wondering if it makes more sense for me to stay in the house we're in now, get a roommate or two (it's a 4 bedroom house), which covers the financial side of things. Also, I'm wondering if I should suggest our S stays with me, let my W move that far out, and she can come visit him/take him on weekends. I think it makes a lot of sense since she always has to work late, has business dinners frequently, and already has to travel some for work, with more frequent trips in the future once their new plant comes online in another state (she'll be the regional customer service manager then).
