Moving

I am moving my family back home. I haven't told my X yet but, I'm sure he will be happy to have his kids close by or he will be extremely anxious. There will be no reason for him not to step up and be apart of their lives.
It looks like all the kids will be coming with me and so I might get to see my first grandbaby being born. YAY!
The only bad thing is there is no good way to get out for under our current mortgage and we will be downsizing our home. The housing market here has taken a big hit and we have lost approximately 70 grand in our home value from it. Then there would be all the repairs to get it ready and there is a lot because of the kids. Then you add the realtor fees for selling it and it becomes impossible to have selling it a viable option.
The house we are looking at is back in my old neighborhood. Not great quality houses but we will own it in a few years. No mortgage and disposable income! Income to go to the England, Ireland, or a nice cruise around the Caribbean.
In five years I will only have one child that I will be financially supporting so we will be able to do so much more. I'm excited and sad. I love this house, its beautiful. 2300 sq ft, cathedral ceilings, loft, and a full basement. I just hate the location and the people that children call friends.
You know the pot smokers, the dealers, the thieves, the liars that they drag through my front door and tell me that they are good people. Don't worry Mom he's my friend he wouldn't do anything to hurt us.
Not one of them could explain why then we were robbed! Or why this other guy decided to break in and snort cocaine off of one their beds! Or that a group of kids got together and stole stupid shit from around the neighborhood and thought storing it in my garage was a good idea! The list goes on and on but this place is toxic for my family. I know my kids are going to attract that kind of person if its what they are looking for but, I feel like I am trying to raise children on my own without any support and they have worn me down. I am losing my ability to fight this fight alone.
So, its time to go home. The X can help. My family will be around. I will have friends to go out and recharge with.
Goodbye house! Fuck You Oswego!
