Hi Blank, This thread is like reading a soap ophrea, until all the facts are in you don't know what to suggest. This post tells your "wife's" side the story of a very valid reason for not wanting to share "your" dream and she maybe used the "D" word to get your head out of your a$$. Sometimes it takes a ton of bricks to get our attention. Some people can't wait to "make it" on there own. Your wife has done that with a good job, two lovely kids and a husband. She's seeing moving back to mommy and daddy as a reversel of everything you've both worked for. This is a natural concern for alot of people in your age bracket. Had this problem arose in another 10yrs then you might have got a different response from your wife, maybe not. I suggest you compermise. Commute to work at the farm as if it's your main job. Live where your at now and use that 2hr drive each day to relax and plan out your next days work and resolve problems just like you do now. Were 30yrs to your senior and had I purposed to my wife the option you gave yours, I'd would have gotten the same response you did, don't let the door knob hit me in the A$$. Why? She has never got along with my family 100% just as I have never got along with hers. We married each other, not our family's. Another thing she's looking at is who's going to take care of mom and dad when the time comes? I wouldn't wish that upon any person again. My wife went thru pure HeII just to be kicked in the face once again. I suggest you keep everything seperate just like it is now if you want your dream job. Dreams are always hard work! I would say very few of "todays" women would do what your asking your wife to do. I watched my mom and dad go thru approx the same thing your planning on doing, (cash no land), with poor results, the big "D", and both will have died very unhappy people. T_Bone

A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas.
