Squidley Posted September 22, 2009 #1 Posted September 22, 2009 Well we have all been hearing me talk about going to Houston....it just took 1 step closer to being done. I had the POD delivered today, 5 days early and we are going to start packing it tomorrow. Seems a bit surreal and Lonna and I are both under a bit of stress right now, but I'm hoping that the Lone Star state will help cure that. So for all our brothers and sisters down in Texas....were almost there
gunboat Posted September 22, 2009 #2 Posted September 22, 2009 the porch light is on and the texas pecan coffee is ready. don c.

RoadKill Posted September 22, 2009 #9 Posted September 22, 2009 Good Luck to you both. You are in my prayers.
Crash Posted September 22, 2009 #10 Posted September 22, 2009 Good Luck on your move. You finally realized being a Wolverine doesn't work! Go Bucks.
LilBeaver Posted September 22, 2009 #11 Posted September 22, 2009 Good Luck on your move. You finally realized being a Wolverine doesn't work! Go Bucks. Leave it to a friggen buckeye to have a problem with someone being ready for a change in scenery and to ride all year round without freezing ones behonkus off We're ready for you Brad and Lonna! Like everyone else has said, let us know when you get down here if you want a hand break....er moving stuff in. I'm a bit away from you but depending on how timing works out I may be able to buzz down there and lend a hand as well . - Rick P.S. M GO BLUE!!! :stirthepot:
barend Posted September 22, 2009 #12 Posted September 22, 2009 So Brad ..... I may have missed it, but, did you or Lonna get a job down there, or are you figuring you'd rather be looking down there then up in MI? Either way, good luck with the move and the new job!!
Squidley Posted September 22, 2009 Author #13 Posted September 22, 2009 So Brad ..... I may have missed it, but, did you or Lonna get a job down there, or are you figuring you'd rather be looking down there then up in MI? Either way, good luck with the move and the new job!! Barend, I haven't found work in Houston yet, figure it's better to be able to present myself to them in person if they want an interview. There's nothing here in Michigan and I'm tired of being here. I figure that I can just as easily be on unemployment down there than up here freezing my rear off. Folks, Thanks for all the offers of help, we'll play it by ear and see how it goes. I know I am excited to get down there and get life back to a somewhat normal state of mind. We'll keep you abreast of the details as they come...Thanks again
mini-muffin Posted September 22, 2009 #14 Posted September 22, 2009 Well it's gonna be a bit hectic for a while with the packing and unpacking. Wish I was able to help out, but you guys can call anytime you need to. When the stress gets to you or Lonna. I'll be here to listen. Things will be fine once you get all that moving done. Good luck on the job. Ya know you guys are loved and we're all here for you. Margaret
timgray Posted September 22, 2009 #15 Posted September 22, 2009 Yup, my wife and I are also looking at fleeing the land of no jobs as well. Michigan Unemployment went up again last month. we have officially 19 people unemployed for every job posting that pops up That is based on people that are currently getting unemployment, the state does not count those that had it run out. Friends in HR talk about getting hundreds of applications for every position they post, so in reality it's far worse than the state admits. It's like throwing a single 8oz steak to a giant pack of starving wolves up here, and companies are dropping salaries by 25% or more for new hires because they know they can. My wife being an accountant cant find a job that pays more than $10.00 an hour because the companies hiring know they can lowball everyone hard. I hope you guys have nothing but great luck in Texas! At least you can easily ride all winter long!
Guest BluesLover Posted September 22, 2009 #16 Posted September 22, 2009 Good luck with the move Brad & Lonna. Hope everything goes well for you. Maybe I'll get a chance to see you (and meet a whole lot of Texas folk) if I ever get off my a$$ and go down to visit the little brother in Austin. Cheers, Lou

MidlifeVenture Posted September 23, 2009 #18 Posted September 23, 2009 the porch light is on and the texas pecan coffee is ready. don c. Good luck and let us know about that pecan coffee man that sounds good.
Gary N. Posted September 23, 2009 #19 Posted September 23, 2009 I'm sure going to miss those ferry rides to go and pick up RSV parts in Marine City. And dinner with you guys at the golf course. Too bad we didn't get a chance to do that once more before you go.
Marcarl Posted September 23, 2009 #20 Posted September 23, 2009 Gonna miss you guys,,,,, ya,,,,,,,,,gonna miss you guys, or did I say that already??????
Dano Posted September 23, 2009 #21 Posted September 23, 2009 Leave it to a friggen buckeye :stirthepot: Hmmmm, LilBeaver, there is PROBABLY more than one "friggin Buckeye" around here (German Village/ Col's. OH, myself). We may be quiet, but you better watch out for that "3 Yards and a cloud of dust" that can come off our boots at anytime!!!! PS GO BUCKS
Dano Posted September 23, 2009 #23 Posted September 23, 2009 You better move pretty soon there, big boy. That trash they're spreading around is starting to affect you! Did you never notice the colors of Nics Camaro?
Squidley Posted September 23, 2009 Author #24 Posted September 23, 2009 You better move pretty soon there, big boy. That trash they're spreading around is starting to affect you! Did you never notice the colors of Nics Camaro? Yeah....but is it running
