Mikey,
I hear ya man. Same thing happened to me, only we were living about 400 km away and then my dad took a turn for the worse so we packed up and headed back. Now with the kid and looking after my mother, there is very little hope of moving, even if I wanted to. Luckily, the economy happened to hit nicely where I already live!
What I want to know is when the heck did I get to be such a responsible person?
Cheers,
Doug
