I know what's the right thing to do.

So I'm an airline pilot, so I'm gone half the week and we just don't really have a support system down where we are in Texas.

And so it's hard with two young kids for her to manage that in a household.

And we've had some health issues.

She's had some health issues this year with a tumor and

So just being closer to family and friends and having community while I'm gone on trips is just going to be a huge advantage for her and our family.

I mean, it's, it's a lot of sacrifices on my end, which is, what does that mean?

Cause that sounds dramatic.

Well, so there's not a, there's not a base for me in Maine.

So that would entail me commuting down to Baltimore, which is adding a day to every trip that I'm gone, which is,

52 days a year that I'm gone more than not getting paid for.

That's a big deal.

It is.

Yeah.

And my family is in Texas.

My parents are older and I've got a stepson from another marriage that I'm, you know, I'm still raising and

let's give this a try.

And, um, cause I've, I've thrown out other compromises that weren't great options, but they were compromises.

And so that's kind of the last, my last compromise is like, okay, let's give it some time.

And then we let's revisit if, if it's not working after two, three years or when our son is five, like before he starts school, let's revisit it.
