Hi there CardiffBaseball, yes, I do remember your post on City Data; yes, now I remember you mentioning Warren and Youngstown.:) Thank you again for your help on everything. I will most definitely do my homework and continue learning and researching before making such a huge move. Yes, Brian Sipe, I remember him from the Browns; will tell my husband about that. Thank you also for clarifying the “travel ball” – LOL.:) So baseball is played almost year round there? I can see how the boys would have to really have some competition out there as here they are playing from about end of March through June, and until about first week of August if they made the All-Star team. That is an interesting tidbit and good to know.

I wish you and your whole family a very happy and abundant new year 2008. It’s been very nice conversing with you and everyone on this board; thank you all. Good night to all.:)

Hi there, Cardiffbaseball.:) Thank you for typing such a informative and very helpful post. Our families sound very similiar; we are definitely a baseball family having 5 boys and 2 girls (ages 23 to age 6). My oldest son who will be 24 soon will be graduating with a degree in Education (Chemistry/Biology) in May. Teaching jobs in NE OH are pretty tight (I noticed that you said that your wife is a teacher). My second oldest is in Mexico right now on a Study Abroad program; his is majoring in Spanish. Our younger kids are in Catholic school and the high-schooler is at a public high school. Yes, we are definitely Buckeye fans! 🙂 My husband and the kids are Cleveland Indians mega-fans as well as fans of the Cleveland Browns. 🙂

Your poor wife; I feel for her. I really hope that as time passes, she gets to know the parents better and feels like she belongs instead of feeling like she’s looking on the outside in. Perhaps, with her job in teaching, she will get to know the parents better, and things will begin to fall into place for her. I think that women need that social interaction and acceptance and the feeling of fitting in. We moved to our current town 16 years ago and I’m just now feeling like I belong here somewhat. We moved about 10 minutes from where both hubby and I grew up and we still kind of went through the same thing. I think people today are just very busy with life and unless you grew up in an area and have deep-rooted friendships as well as family there, it just takes a while to feel like you belong there. Where did you move from, if I may ask? We’re located about 20 miles south of Akron, OH (NE OH).

Glad that your kids are fitting in and had a smooth adjustment and transition to their new home and area. That is very important. Glad to hear about the Little League and that your kids are enjoying that as well as the other sports you mentioned, although I’m not sure what “travel ball” is?? Is that soccer? Please excuse my ignorance as it pertains to sports.:)

Thank you for your recommendations of areas to look at and research. I will most definitely do that. Hey, as for living in a small house, to me, as long as you have your family there with you, you have everything. Hopefully, as the prices reach some sort of equilibrium, new opportunities will open up as far as housing choices go.

Thank you, kind Piggingtons. I really enjoy reading your posts. Thank you for ALL of your various posts and advice. It is very much appreciated. I’ve learned much for all of you over the last year or so. Happy 2008 to all of you.:)

Thank you kindly, SD Realtor. We can most definitely wait for the stronger moves as you mentioned as we are comfortable here, are not hurting to get into a home and such. I realize that we’re not going to get a house with a lot of land or anything like that as land is at a premium there. We would be looking for a 4 bedroom house in an established neighborhood; something that has a backyard for the kids to play in, possibly plant a small garden, even if in containers, have a patio or deck, and some a bit of privacy. I believe that all of that will be at a premium as far as costs are concerned. I know for sure that we’re not looking for new allotments with monthly fees and/or restrictive rules. As far as jobs, my husband is a pharmacist, I am a former accountant, own my own business which is operated from home. Looking for good schools, possibly Catholic schools. Two oldest kids will be graduating from college, younger kids are in high school, middle school, and elementary school. Waiting it out another several years is definitely doable as long as I don’t lose my mind with the grey and cold winters. It wasn’t so bad today as some sun actually peaked out! 🙂 Thank you again for your advice, as always.:)
