Let's start the pool: How many Congressional reps are we going to lose, one, two or three? Any takers?

Left Howell, MI in 2002, it took a yr to sell my home on acreage & lost quite a bit of $$ back then - cannot imagine trying to sell now!
Love it here in Round Rock, TX & would never move back!
Over 200 days of sun here in Central TX yearly - not to many in burrrrr MI
We’ll probably stay here (MI) but all our kids will probably have to go to find jobs...I don’t mind that...but dang it...they’ll take the grandkids with them...THAT I resent!
this story is WAY, WAY, WAY underplaying how bad it is.
It’s not ‘third consecutive year’ of outbound net population. This is the THIRD CONSECUTIVE DECADE!!!!!
Wiki...
In August 2008, Money Magazine named Round Rock as the 7th best American small city to live in.
funny. I have been chuckling remembering my kids running around pretending to stub their tows and saying stab-n-OWWW. Even now, 8 years later we see her on Cspan or something and my kids will say isn’t that stab-n-OWWW.
Tourism is what will keep that state afloat. I always thought great place to visit but wouldn’t want to live there and think the opposite of my home here in Kansas, great place to live, but wouldn’t want to visit there....
1/3 of the moves were INTO the state? Who are those loonies??
I think you should of moved a little bit further south, but anything is better then living near the Detroit area.
Found memeory as a kid of going to the UP every year after year for vacation at Brevort Lake for fishing.(Parents couldn't afford much of a vacation.) A lot of cheap things to do like going to the county dump and watch the bears come out to raid the dump. Actually about a dozen cars would show up. Yep those were the good old days.
Especially north of the Bridge. Hopefully Obama's infrastructure initiative overlooks extending any 4 lane highways through Wisconsin into the U.P. . It would bring up too many FIBs.

She did say we would be blown away. She meant it.
Wow, clicked on your name, read your story about your grandson... I am praying thru my tears for you, and Josh.
Yeah, she sure wasn't kidding when she said we were going to get blown away was she?
Thanks. Ya it’s been a long 14 months. Not a whole lot of progress. The Drs told us to reevaluate at 1 yr. but he’s there...I KNOW he is...What do Drs know...
Moving trends: Leaving Mich. heading east, west
Fleeing another dem-o-rat paradise.
****
Really soon “all America will become dem-o-rat paradise” if people don’t stand for something firm and fight for their God given rights!
I left NYC and just moved to Michigan my body is weak but my WILL remainds intact this problem will only turn around when people honor their Creator Council!
Isa. 29: 13.
13 ¶ Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
Titus 1: 16 (15-16).
16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Can’t even imagine..and what you feel is what is important, not what the Dr. tells you to do. He is a living breathing part of your life, and always will be, no matter what shape he is in physically or mentally. I pray for strength for you, truly I do.
Wait ‘til the global warming hits you this summer.
Thanks for prayer. He is able to hold himself in a sitting position now for very short times. That’s HUGE! A non thinking person doesn’t try to balance themselves and jerk if they feel themselves falling.
So much for Drs...
