Commitment Issues

I know what you all are thinking and No I'm talking about relationship commitment issues ( I have none of those) but commitment on where I will live the next 5-10 years. The reason why this is stressing me out is because Reggie will start elementary school in 2 years. Why am I thinking about this now - because I have to decide soon if I am going to send him to public or private school. If I do the private route I will have to start applying next Fall - and I will be tied to this school and the area I am living for at least 5 years.

Most of you know I tend to change jobs every 2-3 years and in Manhattan it was easy, you just change your train route. In LA this could potentially add 1 hour or more to your commute if you pick the wrong side of town. So I am starting to stress (alot) about this.

I thought my move to Cali was permanent or at least for the next 5-10 years but now I'm starting to waiver. I think I have heart palpitations when I think that I might be at the same company for 5 years and that I don't have the flexibility as I use to.

But I looked at craigslist at manhattan apartments and that started to deflate my ideas of moving back. I need a 2 bedroom apt (even if its 600 sq ft) but Reggie needs his own space. All the apartments that were under $2500 and large enough was in Harlem. Nothing against Harlem but I don't want to live uptown -

So if you know if any great apartments or a suger daddy in NY - let me know.
