If I had to look elsewhere for work for some reason, Houston is probably where I’d end up. Lots of energy-related companies.
I really don't understand how that is supposed to help my chess game.
he’s about 10 yrs out from retirement. hopefully he can stick it out with this company (he worked for a zillion years for Halliburton before moving to his current company which was then bought out by the Houston firm that has offered him this VP slot, not like he’s a gadfly going from job to job LOL!). They didn’t want to live in OH in retirement, and they liked TX while there. my bro has traveled there a lot over the years and knows it well. They may have trouble selling the house in Warren, i doubt real estate is moving fast there.
We have just driven from Wisconsin to California — 3 hard days of 900 miles per day — and I’m not rantipoling around this AM. I can barely open my eyes.
They don’t like snow?
you need to rest up!! A+++
Once you get older, who wants to shovel snow?
not so much that as Warren is just not a booming area. I do feel like i want to say they dang well need to VOTE in OH before they move bc OH needs those two R votes way more than TX does!
No. That’s a Hobbsipole. That would make her a rantipole.
Ive never heard you use lookout as an antecedent to that phrase.....
You know you were just asking for it with your post about hockey players and their dogs? I refrained.
what was i asking for??
No rest for me. Have to sign contracts for Mom into an assisted living center and then take her from rehab to get her hearing aids either adjusted, fixed, or returned. And then we commence the move. All the while, she is kicking and screaming that she doesn’t want to go to assisted living. It’s a lot like dealing with a recalcitrant teen ager. She will by 99 tomorrow. My oldest son will arrive on Thursday to pick up her car for my granddaughter. Lots of schedules to meet. Change the phone. Set up the apartment. Mover her in. Hope she likes it. Keep smile on face. And it’s 101 degrees here today.
It’s lamentable that you have to deal with the difficulties. my best friend was rather lucky. they moved her mom into assisted living, from her apt in the same complex, at her mother’s request. she was very worried she would fall or something. She turned 90 this past year.
She will BE 99 tomorrow. And we are going to MOVE her in. I am tired!
To God’s ear:
May Barack Insane Obama rantipole like a stripper on a sugar high after his historic 50-state loss on November 6th.
Oh wow! They will love the housing market but hate the heat in the summer. Tell them to find a house with a pool - and if they need any advice on areas to live I will be happy to offer my biased opinion!
My mom DID fall at home in May and broke her leg. Through the miracle of modern medicine, they put a rod in the leg and got her back on her feet. But, her Xrays look like swiss cheese, according to the medical professionals who have seen them. She just cannot live alone any more. She won’t come to Wisconsin, so there is no other choice. We found a wonderful place for her, but she is apprehensive.
Go to http://cottonwoodfresno.com/ for a peek. Everyone who has seen this web site want to know when THEY can move in. Her retirement income plus some savings will cover her there. It’s a win/win situation.
A crude comment.
You asked what was better than hockey players and their dogs.
Maybe something like “beach volleyball players and their felines.”
