Greener pastures?

Well the snow has finally come to bite us in the ass. I have been enjoying this winter. Its something unusual. I normally have cabin fever and I'm stuck in the snow.

Speaking of being stuck. There is something I have been pondering about for a while now, and that is greener pastures. Its something I think about. Its a mentality that I think some of us get into when we feel stuck in life, needing or wanting a change and wondering if things would be better if I was somewhere else. Is this good? Healthy?

For a while now I have been feeling stuck not going anywhere. I know some of it is me and sometimes I wonder if its my location. I like Milwaukee but somethings are getting under my nerves for a while. The recession has hurt the city a lot. Even though unemployment has dropped nation wide it has not here in the city. I've had several jobs fall through. Milwaukee has turned into the 4th poorest city in the country and I feel like nobody is fixing it or wants to. Plus every year there is always problems in the budget for public transportation. Mass trans is important to me. Its my only means of getting around besides begging for a ride from people which I don't like to do. Its my independence, its my ride.Hey that is the slogan for Milwaukee Transit System.

For a while I have been thinking about Madison. It doesn't have the mass transit  budget problems like Milwaukee does. The unemployment is lower. Other than that I really don't know much about Madison. I've heard its nice to live. Whether or not that is true, I have no clue. I have only been there a few times. My other issue is do I have the balls to do it?  Start over. I hate moving Hmmm.... Also finances is a big issue. I live on little. Its kind of like a dog trying to catch its own tail. I need money to move. Money which I don't have. Which is why I need a job. But if I have a job why would I want to move?

Sometimes I wonder if a city outside of WI would be better but I am uncertain about that 3 things would be a factor, location, mass transit and healthcare. Having Spina Bifida healthcare is always a factor no matter where I live. I need decent specialists. It's my lifeline. I wonder what cities are the most handicapped accessible?

So are there really greener pastures? Or is it just wishful thinking. All I know is that I want out of the mud and in the sun.
