Subject: I am moving back to Texas end of Februrary
To: a-ring-of-fire@hotmail.com
It is all settled.
I will be returning to Texas, the end of February. Mitchell and I have discussed this backwards and forwards. He has a wonderful job here....and a commitment to it till at least December of this year. He loves it, and I am so proud of the work he is doing.
There is nothing for me here tho. Well, that sounds kind of cold....Mitchell is here! I love him. Yet, he is gone all day, and there is nothing for someone, like me, who is an outgoing people person. There is talk in the air that they will be sending him to at least one other mine to do the same thing he is doing here. I would be left here while he would be gone a month or more.....not a good situation far as we are concerned. When we found this out, is when we started talking about me moving back. It would not be bad if we were situated some place like a normal city. But as you know, we are not. No hospital, not a real store, not a real place to get work on the car if needed. There is not even any community college or adult school so I could be doing some college courses..... Know what I mean?
So, more discussion with my kids.....it is settled. I will be going to Stafford (Houston area) where Robbie Lynn is. I can help with the g=kids, get some college courses started, and maybe a part time job.
Mitchell will stay here. I can get airfare from Houston to Vegas cheaper than from Vegas to Houston....so I can come here all the time.....he has to go to Vegas or Reno for real shopping at least once a month......

I
actually discussed moving to Reno or Vegas or even Fallon which is only
2-1/2 hours away, he could come there on the three day weekends he
has....but he is against that. He says I still won't know anyone or
anything...he prefers me being near the rest of the family and my
friends. We will be saving all the money so when he is done with the
time here, we can finally get a house bought and set up someplace to
stay. Not sure where that will be....yet. That is our plan
tho.
I
will sign up for the basic college courses I need to get started on my
sign language classes. More than likely get a small part time job to
make a little extra spending money, plus more to add to the buy a house
fund.
Lori Lou, Wheeler and Ms Tuna go with me. Dollie Mae and Arrt will be staying with Mitchell to keep him all safe.
Dollie and Arrt are bonded....so they have to stay together. Dollie
and Lori fuss and fight so they cannot stay together alone....thus the
split. Plus, I love taking Lori Lou with me on trips here and there.
She will like the ride, and the g=kids.
It is not the perfect answer, but it will work for awhile.

Mom, I have to admit....this is not what either of us expected. I knew it was going to be rural. That was no surprise. I just didn't know how rural it would turn out to be. I was so anticipating a new adventure and experience we would look back on and say that was a cool time in life. Instead it is turning into a nightmare!
Mitchell doesn't mind not knowing people....he is a born hermit and would never leave the house if he didn't need too. :) He will probably get a room mate, since housing is so sparse here and that will allow more to put in our buy a home fund. He doesn't like going to the big cities all the time....and would only need to do it once a month....so that would make him happy.
We are in the middle of getting his bottom dentures which is part of the reason for waiting. I want to make sure he has everything taken care of before heading out. Although, It only cost $99 to fly to vegas and rental cars are not expensive here so I can be here with no problems if needed.
It is snowing again....and there was not supposed to be any more snow for a long time according to weather dude. We cannot go to Reno like we needed too.....will be going to Vegas next weekend....the week after he gets the next fitting for his dentures. Other than that.....it should probably stay quiet here on the homefront.
