Sounds like you already know what you want. If your wife is willing to move a couple-three times to your base to make life easier on you and your relationship together, go for it. If she isn't, this could be somewhat of a mine field. It sounds like your life is pretty good right now even though you aren't a big fan of your job. Don't neglect that.
Good luck.
