Thoughts of moving to Texas?
10 March 2007 by Two Crazy DogsEver since DB sobered up, he has been in contact with his mother and sisters very frequently. Most of his brothers and sisters are residing in New Braunfels, Texas. Two other siblings and DB are the only ones living “far away” from the rest of the clan.
DB calls his mom almost every weekend, if not every other. He speaks and text messages his sister, Juls, every weekend, too. He would receives all updates from each of the other 5 siblings. Yeah, he comes from a big family of 9 kids but now it’s only 8. The one sister passed away in 1999.
Out of the blue last week, DB’s mom asked him when he will be moving to Texas for good. She said it would be nice if he is in Texas with the family. Juls told DB that it will be nice to have another brother with them in Texas. DB told me about it and I just looked at him for a moment with my mind thinking of the heat in Texas. I told him if we were to move to Texas, it would be at least an hour or 2 hours drive to New Braunfels, or even more. That’s really mean of me, but I guess I don’t like having to live so close to the in-laws who are all bums (except for MIL, youngest BIL, and SIL). If we would to move to Texas and lived close to the in-laws, I know they would be bugging us, all the time - all family functions which always turned out calling the cops on someone.
I told DB, I’m not going to move out of MN till I complete my Associates. I have a gut feeling he really wants to move to a warmer place instead of this arctic tundra, getting sick of it, according to him. I guess I will take my sweet ass time to complete my 2-year!

He does not look like he is having fun shovelling all that snow.
I use to hate walking in all those snow and have to wrap up all the time till I look like a barrel. The first snow fall is fun but the novelty wears off very fast after that.
Plus the older you get the more sentimental you become.
What you can do now is ‘physco’ him about his family’s behaivour, sweet talk him to stay at MN forever. And maybe help him to shovel those snow …..
He is old already you know.No more a young man.He must have all the aches and pains that usually accompanied with old age.
Just think at the end of winter you will have great arms, all toned up.There you have it another way to burn off all those calories from post Thanksgiving and X’mas.
Another great idea - tell him to move to the tropics. Warm all year round. And if you want some cold just pop in to the malls. The tempreture there is brrrr…..Plus you can do your shopping too. Kill 2 birds with one stone.

My thoughts are he wants to be closer to his mom since that old lady is 78 now and still working 4 days a week. Good for her. I wish her other daughters are like her.
Aches and pains yeah, who want to get baked everyday and who was the one who shovel the snow when he was drunk as a skunk?? I was using a shovel not a snowblower. To be honest, he really wants to move to Pangkor island of all places, so he can go fishing!!! I will really be bored!

Well, at least you can still run on the beach.
Bored ?…sells the fish he caught.Entrepreneur….
Get an island like Michelle Yeoh and her squeeze in Trengganu.Real privacy then.Then can run around terlanjang if you find it too hot.

Yeah, sell fish - salted fish, right?
SA - That’s what I heard. I want to visit them inlaws but they are all so rowdy when they entertain. Totally rednecks!
