The fact that you have to change makes all the difference. You do have choices though - but maybe that just makes it harder. I always have this moment of great envy when you guys go on about PS vs charter vs gifted school etc since our choice is several almost identical public schools and home schoolwhich isn't viable. Then I imagine having to make such a decision and my head hurts. It is a awfully big decision.

IS your daughter younger or older? If you end up with two pg kids and don't feel strongly about where you live now Reno might be nice.
