Major life change. I bought this house in Quincy, CA. I'm moving there soon. It was somewhat of a whim I must admit. WTF am I doing?

Why I'm Moving To Plumas County
It's simple really. Something has to give.
I've been laid off from my job in Silicon Graphics for the second time, my relationship of many years has fizzled, and Santa Cruz has become so busy that I can hear morning traffic wafting through my bedroom window in my house among the redwoods in Felton. I need to reinvent myself.
I love my house in Felton. I've had a load of good memories.
But there are also some difficult memories to wrestle with. I had some major construction done on the house that came along with a bitter disagreement with the contractor. It has left a bad taste in my mouth and I'm unsure of how I'll pay the mortgage in the year to come due to my unemployment. The lingering question is of course, how does moving to Quincy solve these problems?
