Decisions, Decisions, Decisions

If we decide to move overseas we're probably going to accept the job in Paris. But we can't quite seem to pull the trigger for some reason. We even started a list of Pros and Cons:

Moving to Paris (PROS)

  • Nice offer from an exciting new company with a bright future
  • Get to experience another culture
  • Easy/cheap to travel to other locations in Europe
  • House needs a lot of work and we have WAY too much stuff (moving to Paris would force us to finally do something about this situation)
  • Parisian food, art, history
  • We're getting older (mid 50's) but we're not too old for a new adventure

Moving to Paris (CONS)

  • Leaving daughter (and her fiance)
  • Moving anywhere is a huge pain in the ass
  • We are not very adventurous and are becoming set in our ways

Earlier today Melanie and I were talking about our potential move when I remembered my daughter's motto: "It is better to regret something you did than your decision not to do it." We have a chance to live in Paris, how on earth can we pass that up?

Holy smokes, I think we're moving to Paris!
