How do you like the "Texas Turnaround?" They confused the heck out of me at first, but once you understand them, they're great.
So what do you think of the goofy weather so far? Hot and humid one day, cool and dry the next. Drought, then flooding.
Wait until you discover the cute, little "Fire Ant" as you are gardening one day.
I figured out the turnaround in a hurry thanks to Google maps! You really need to pay attention to lane choice!
Weather here has been okay... nothing crazy. We've not seen any of the torrential rain yet, light rain, cool, warm and mild himidity (compared to NH!)
We just had the whole place treated. They build into the home a network of tubes with portals outside so they can treat. We did have three ant hills starting but no activity today! We had a lot of spiders outside but they are gone too.
So, all the utilities are set up, city is taken care of, pest control, security system, water filtration, and her car is now officially Texan. She'll get her license next week. I'm not declaring TX residence until I move myself from NH. If I do it now, I would have to pay sales tax on the SUV and bike when I arrive. So I'll wait...
Much cheaper living so far... much nicer roads, and a LOT nicer people! Everyone has been so pleasant and helpful! You don't find this in New England... where I'll be once again tomorrow afternoon.... grrrr.....
