Life with the Three Crazy Dogs

Ever 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!
