I never really cared for the LA area. San Diego was pretty nice. I'm not real sure I'm glad I'm back home in Texas, with a couple of exceptions. If my area had more job opportunities, I'd probably be happier.

Good thing I don't have Texas in my name.  Phew!

I moved here when I was in school, and got stuck.  Geographically speaking, I am not fond of it, but there are alot worse.  And, given the fact that I have over 30 years of friends and support network here, it just seems silly to go.

It is hard on you, BEG, because it wasn't a choice.  You had to move.  Your freedom to live in Texas was taken from you.

I'm glad I'm not you.   :tongue:

I'm going to TX for a week on 11/09... Crossing finger's that I am taken in by a nice family who owns a huge ranch, has lots of gu...er... land and tools and horses and a cot for me to sleep on. :D

I don't know your story, but I would offer this: I'm in MN. At least YOU get nice weather! :drink:

This is in response to bkg.

I have lived in the Dallas area for the past 15 years. My parents moved there about 12 years ago. My husbands family live just outside of Tulsa which was just 4-5 hours away. My life was complete.  We had a house that we could more than afford and we put a lot of work into it.  We had a large group of friends who we hung out with frequently. My kids had their friends and we lived in an excellent school district.

I was forced to move to crappy southern California because my husbands work closed the office in Dallas and moved all the designers to CA. Now I am house poor and live in a house that cost three times what it would cost in Texas.  While our house in Texas needed no work the house in California that cost three times our house in Texas needs work. We just replaced the carpet in the bedrooms (the rest of the house is wood and tile). It needs to be painted both inside and out, two windows need to be replaced (but they are nice windows), the roof has some cracked tiles that need to be replaced to the tune of about $800, one bathrrom needs remodled (and I want to redo the master bath too), the wood floors need to be refinished....that's all I can think of now.

To top it all off we have taxes and fees coming out our ass. I want my walmart and target stores, the walmart and target's here suck big time. They don't even have a Super Target, can you friggen believe it?  Also no DILLARDS.  I also used to take my mom with me when ever I went to the store. I miss my mom...sniffle.

I want everyone to know that I am only half serious about my bitching.  I know that there are so many out there who have it really bad and deserve to bitch. I have my family and a roof over my head. I don't normally have anything to bitch about so when I do have something to complain about I usually go a little overboard.  :p

And they aren't civilized enough to give time off from school for hunting season, are they?

O-kay.  Call me a beeotch and not a bastard.  To quote our most recent troll/mole: I AM A Girl.  And, I live in the Dallas area.  The weather is pretty sucky, as usual.  And blah blah blah it is all bad here  Yada Yada Yada.  No seasons, too much rain, not enough rain.  You know the story. 

At least your weather is better?
