Oh that’s right - I forgot they used to live in Katy - did I mention to you that I heard one of the big Petroleum firms (like Exxon maybe?) was closing their location in Fairfax and building a 10,000 person office headquarters in north Houston? I was thinking of the influx of folks from your area when that opens

Some on the left love to rantipole
Don’t work, just complain of the scanty dole
Using food stamps for liquor
They rave, shout and snicker
Before crawling back to their shanty hole

i know exactly where that facility is, it’s 2 miles from my house. we passed it on the way home from church yesterday and i actually mentioned it to xshub. i did not realize they were moving back to Houston. i think my neighbors both work for Exxon, not sure where their ofc is. no for sale sign in front of their house. they are both dr/scientist types.

my SIL and i were reminiscing about the last time we visited them in Katy. it was March, it rained all week, xsboy was 17 mo old and xsteen was 4 1/2, and i went alone, bc xshub was in Australia on business and i couldn’t cope with the idea of 10 days at home alone with them. so i hauled them on the plane and we went down there and when we came back there was 20 inches of snow, and i carried xsboy up the front steps and the nice foreign cabdriver had to carry xsteen up there for me! no one was home to shovel, obviously!

Well, I just transitioned from full-time employee to full-time business owner, so things are exciting, scary, and moving 100 mph all the time! My last employer blocked FR, so I should be able to visit more often now, if my jerk of a boss will let me! LOL

Yeppers!

true, but it is lamentable that republicans have such a propensity to shoot themselves in the face when they are very nearly acheiving the upper hand. A+++

the campus being built won’t be ready until 2013 or 14, can’t recall so they have a few years. 10K employees on one campus type location will be huge - like a small college campus!

Just curious, have you thanked Bammy for building that business for you yet? (Congrats on your new venture, we KNOW you built it yourself!)

Well, the only time I talk to Oblabla is when I make effigies of him for the morning constitutional... (hopefully that’s not too graphic! LOL)

Hang in there. You are doing the responsible and considerate thing, trying to maintain some quality of life for her while keeping her in a safe environment.
