I know it would save me about $30-$50 a week in gas as it's a LOT closer, not to mention the hours are decent & I'd actually have more time at home too, due to the hours & less of a drive.
I don't the exact details, will ask on Monday, but I will get some sort of a discount for care of my animals. If it's a considerable discount that may be worth the job for sure.
And I do have Joe moving in with me so all my bills will be cut in half.
And if I take the job at least my foot is in the door and it's doing something that I LOVE doing!
But it's still a lot less per week. Before taxes it's about $260 less a week. OUCH

I just don't know what to do!

This is all I have to say.
Are you going to be happy at this job?
If you choose yes, THEN TAKE IT!!

Rob took a job for 65k, got to work from home & lots of other goodies & the people were great!! Rob got an offer with Tucows for 100k, he went to the interview & realized he would never be happy there, so he turned it down. He has gotten nearly 2 offers/week & the pay was SOOOO much greater & the beniffits were higher too. He turned them all down! Last week he was offered 100k usa for 5 months to work for IBM, or 250k cdn for a year! Know what he said? No!

Don't worry you'll pick the right answer (I personally vote yes take it, as I feel the job with your family is TOO stressful for your health)
