I forgot to mention that my husband was laid off 2 years ago, and the cost of living is getting to us. Our savings will go much further in Texas.
You will love Texas. Lots of CA license plates here...lol. We just want the conservative ones ;)
Best of luck...with the college years and the (possible) move to TX.
Yes, they will.
I know the pain of husband-layoff. It happened to my husband in hiring: no one wanted to hire a middle-aged, white male, especially an over-qualified one. He was out of work for months. Terrible!
Again, best of everything and watch out for those fire ants.
