One other option then my vote. Have you thought about renting an apartment, then commute home for the weekend? Have a neighbor that works 150 miles away doing this. I've done this too for several months. The plus is it buys you time while you look for something else without uprooting the family. The minus is you're alone/gone all week. Will they offer the severence several months down the road??

Now the vote: Take the severence. The sooner you get into another job, the sooner you get on with your life. I did the weekend thing for 3 months then cut it loose and got another job.
