Sounds like a fun time.One of my brothers drove out here for a visit today. We went out to an excellent seafood restaurant. He had baked haddock, and I had grilled swordfish.I love fresh swordfish. We also had seaweed salad, baked potato, and shrimp with spicy dipping sauce for an appetizer, that we shared. I had key lime pie for dessert. Yum, yum, yum. Nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

You really need to move back up here.
They were both driving me crazy. In the hallway of our house, we have a big window and a ledge where you can put trees, ornaments, and such in front of the window. Dad was up there cleaning...and getting annoyed with me for standing there watching him. Given that the man fell off a ladder in that hallway when I was four, I think my concern was justified. Not to mention that he was up there in socks and leaning over with the Swiffer. He looked like he could fall off. But he was annoyed with me for insisting I watch him do it (and telling him to be careful).
Then later, I brought my brother out his lunch and set it down on the table. I set it down where I normally sit for dinner, which I think is a more comfortable chair. My brother made me move it to his spot. I swear it's like living with Sheldon.
My mom had some of her friends over later. I was glad to hang around them in order to get some estrogen.
The fact that they brought wine was just a bonus.![]()
I always found that the only thing stopping any of us from doing just that is ourselves. Good thing that all those people from Europe and other places in the world didn't let lack of getting a job get in the way. Can you imagine the courage it took to get on a ship and sail across the Atlantic with no idea what they would find on the other side. Or a Conestoga Wagon and head across a hostile wilderness to find a home? Perhaps they had less to lose, but, still it had to be scary.If we could live and work wherever we wanted to...the places I would go
It's easier for me - my family is all still here, including all of my aunts and uncles and most of my cousins.How do you like your town? I don't want to move away from my family but I just can't see myself living my whole life here.
but you can.If we could live and work wherever we wanted to...the places I would go
You can.Can I just say I'm tired of all the Paul Blart commercials.
but you can.
Or just go and find whatever job you can when you get there. Success isn't always instantaneous.Couple of ways I can go to work of these places
1) a need job placement...mostly engineers and such which is not me
2) work for an international company which I'm trying to get in a couple months and then transfer over
3) get married to a national
4) start a business which is also not me
Yeah...that's what all emigrants to the USA said too.Couple of ways I can go to work of these places

My Dida was still living in Germany for a while after being released from the POW camp at the end of the war.
One day, while he was working on the docks, a man announced that a ship was leaving for Canada in one hour. Strong men only, willing to work in the fields; no women, no children. He rushed home, kissed his wife, toddler and infant son good-bye and promised to send for them as soon as he could.
Less than a year later, after working 18 hour days/7 days a week, his family was reunited.
I was amazed at how nervous I was about packing up and moving to North Carolina. I even had the advantage of my family already being here. I have a lot of relatives up north but none that I would call close except my sister. If my mother had still been alive, I might have waited before heading south, but, that wasn't the case so what would seem like a no brainer was a difficult decision.It's easier for me - my family is all still here, including all of my aunts and uncles and most of my cousins.
Unlike my friends, I never yearned to grow up and move away. Also unlike my friends, I am not in the process of uprooting my older teenaged kids to move back.![]()
