We live in North Texas
and have been here our whole lives. Have visited both CC and Galveston a lot of times. We're thinking of moving closer to one of them, maybe on outskirts somewhere, but are just wondering pricing for homes or even just land to build on. Any idea if is it way high because of beaches?
I consider it north
I consider it north just because it is not far from Ohio - just cross the bridge in Maysville and you're in Ohio, but technically it probably isn't north. . if your daughter didn't like Maysville, she wouldn't like Flemingsburg either - it is even smaller - my daughter prefers living in Florence - she thinks Flemingsburg is too small too. .
what is BBQ ? I am from the north.
and a BBQ is when we cook outside on the grill. lol. These all sound like sloppy joes or manwich to me. Never did like them though. Is this what BBQ is?

Just north of me. The lady I had
charged me $65 every other week for 2400 sq feet minus my office cause I do it myself. I also tipped her. She spent about 3-1/2 to 4 hours here.
All other quotes I am getting from individuals are a little higher than that but I would rather pay more and get better service. Some agencies want around $130. I found one that quoted me $70 to $87 but could not get out to give me an exact estimate until a week later so I am waiting to hear back from the ladies I emailed on Craigslist to see if they can come this week.

Very close, up a tad north of you....
My husband refuses to go further north than Tennessee. He believes he will "freeze". I, on the other hand, grew up in the south but have ALWAYS longed to live up north. I have a cousin who grew up here with me. She went to Vermont one year for some job or something, came back home, and said she was moving up there. She did and is now in her late 50's and dreads having to come back down here. She loves it too! She keeps wanting me to come visit but I would want to move even more. Now, I probably will say no to Alaska. I had a girlfriend who moved up there one week after getting married (her husband was from there). She is a southern girl and she was miserable. She would call crying, was thawing her walls out with a blow dryer. I was dying laughing and she was squawling. Twelve years later, she finally told her husband she wand the kids wer moving back south....he could come if he wanted. He did and they have been here ever since.
North/South
Doesn't matter what side we come from, we are all here for the same reason and by the same God. My grandfather used to tell me that the south did whatever they could to survive and the north had more money so they were technologically advanced and better educated. That changed a long time ago. I would say we are all pretty even now days. My husband is from Germany and lived in WI before coming here to the heart of the bible belt, and he still can't wrap his mind around sweat tea or cornbread. He says I'm eating cardboard. Just a thought..
North Carolina
I am from North Carolina. I would make sure I visited the Outer Banks and Kitty Hawk. If it was the right time of the year, I would see "The Lost Colony". I just love Hatteras and the lighthouse. North Carolina has some very interesting and beautiful places to see. Also, the Biltmore House in Asheville is very nice, and has beautiful gardens. North Carolina is a wonderful state. Oh, I almost forgot -- the beautiful mountains -- Cherokee, Maggie Valley. Too much to mention.
As far as I know career = north
Here's a website that gives some office tips (hope the link works)

North Carolina??
My husband and I are considering a move to N.C. Does anyone live in the Cary area? If so, how do you like this area? Could you tell me about the community there. Thanks
we had 1 channel when we were north
and it was great. We only had an antenna. Got used to just those shows that came on and if I didn't like something on TV I read or did something else.
For some reason I enjoyed TV much better when I didn't have so much to choose from. Now it's all garbage.
I hate TV but do find I keep it on for noise.
All I say is GO FOR IT. My sister says she wishes she cut the TV off more with their son. Now he's hooked, but their daughter has very little interest in TV. She reads and plays and does other stuff.
No snow for me in North Alabama - sm
I am halfway between Birmingham, Alabama and Nashville, Tennessee. The snow completely missed us. I wanted snow for my children, but since it missed us, I am so praying that your babies get to see snow. Please let us know.
I'm in north MS, I saw a bag of fried peanuts in...
still in the shell at a convenience store yesterday!
I grew up in IL and many of the foods I grew up eating are the same here.
Go with the Crest or North Wildwood
I grew up in Wildwood Crest and my mother still lives there. While it might be cheaper to stay in Wildwood itself, there's a reason for that. I would definitely go with either Wildwood Crest or North Wildwood. Both are much nicer than the City of Wildwood. North Wildwood has bars and part of the boardwalk. The Crest is a dry town so no bars and it tends to be quieter.
Wildwood has the boardwalk and great water park but otherwise not much to offer, and its easy enough to get from one to the other so I would definitely recommend NOT staying in Wildwood. You'll see the difference when you get there.
Have a great time!!!
You guessed right! Raised in the North and will die in the south!!

A few inches of VERY wet snow for us just north of Montgomery, AL -nm

Supper here north of Kansas City, MO
Stuffed green peppers (spanish rice/burger mixture topped with shredded cheese) and a romaine lettuce salad. Apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for dessert.
North Dakota. :D Freeze in winter/fry in summer ;)
Well, this is our coldest period right now. But having it -30 to -60 with the windchills certainly isn't any surprise. In summer we can be in the 80s and 90s with very high humidity. LOL! We always say, if you don't like the weather... just wait a minute.
Lower NY state north of NYC, getting hit with sleet and ice! Few inches of it now. :( nm

Same here! Texas and

Where in Texas? I'm in far
north Texas. Just wish my kids could see real snow! Hayseed, it does sound beautiful there! I worked for a company in Maine and got a lot of information and it just sounded sooooo beautiful! But here I am in Texas, no snow, just ice here and there!
OP in Texas, isn't she? Anyway, that's what

and in Texas
 almost 70 degrees and I have been out walking in the sunshine!
I'm a Texas
 girl too - in Fort Worth, where are you??
New Texas Rule
 I for one am so glad I do not live in Texas. To force someone to take a shot like that! It should be the parents who decide. I have suffered from cervical cancer and no I do not want my two daughters having this injection. We do not yet know enough about the side-effects and long-term effects of this new drug.
Do you live in Texas? :)
a
Southeast Texas?
.
In that case, Texas ought to be against also
because their capital punishment rates right up there with Florida and I would bet Texas is definitely into whuppings!
$3.41-3.45 here in West Texas. I have been
checking out yard sales for a bicycle. Not just about gas, I need to loose about 50 pounds plus all these short trips to the store is hard on the vehicle anyway.
$2.06 in fort worth texas
Down from $2.15 last week.
Texas beaches suck.

Blue Ridge, Texas
School is out this Friday and my 2 kids will be home and I have to start getting up earlier and working in the early, early morning and late evenings!
There was a hospital here in Texas that called 911
It was a physician owned hospital. The story was on CNN. A man had back surgery there, had some sort of bad reaction to the anesthesia and the wife herself had to do CPR. The surgeon walked in and told her to call 911.
The hospital has been shut down.

Texas polygamist compound
what's with the ladies and the hairdos - you know those pompadours. Anybody know? I know there are more important things in this case, but it just strikes me. 
Yes, big Texas accent & proud of it.

I live in West Texas
Like Texas...a state of mind! :D :D nm

I do not live in Texas but after reading your post, let me say
you do NOT have to have sex in order to get cervical cancer. I personally do not feel this is a message for kids to have sex. I have a daughter who is older, out on her own and she would have to make her own decision regarding this. If when she was growing up IF she had come to me and said she wanted birth control, knowing this was probably what was going to happen, i would have taken her to get this. I would much rather have a child on birth control that have a bunch of kids brought home to me to have to support and care for. I had my children and raised them, didn’t need any more. You can talk to children regarding this but eventually most will make up their own minds as to what they want to do, not their parents.
I'm originally from Binghamton, but I live in Texas now.

Where r u at in Texas? I live here too and argue with 50% of their rules!

Exactly. Plus, don't people realize that Texas is weird?

oh Texas girl, you made me laugh!
and i'm going to save this to send to people who need to see it!!
Children in Texas finally reunited
I was pleased to hear the children from the Texas ranch reuinited with their parents. I could not figure out how the state could come in and remove the children without solid evidence of abuse. They said they received an anonymous call from some girl who claimed she was an under aged bride? However through the whole episode never once did this so called girl come forward. I believe this was all a smoke screen so they could go in and disrupt this religious group. They were not doing anything wrong. They were living in the ways they believe is correct, just like any other baptist, catholic, or any other religion lives. If it has to do with taxes, health care or whatever that should be settled in court, not yank their children away from them. I have no doubts that if it was a baptist or one of their religious groups that they belong to none of this would have happened. I am just pleased the children are finally reunited with their parents and it sounds like they are reaching some agreements to make sure the children will be safe "if" there is anything harmful going on. Makes me even more glad I don't have children knowing that they can just be "ripped" away from me without a legal reason, but that's just me.
A very small town in West Texas
I live in an 890 sq foot rock house. I am guessing at the sq foot actually. It is close to 900 but not quite there. It ihas 2 bedrooms, 1 bath. Metal roof. I live close to the schools. I live 2 blocks from the local hospital. I just applied for a job there in fact. I worked 8 years for a big 300-bed multispeciality hospital that was 35 miles away. I left because of the climbing gas prices and I thought I needed a break from the office politics. I started working for an on-line transcription company and for some reason just cannot seem to produce the lines or make half the money I was making at the hospital. I have been here 6 months already. I applied to another company to try my luck there and they offered me a job but I read in the paper yetserday this little hospital here is hiring. They do light transcription, filing, I forget what else it said. The best part is I will have benes. As I was applying a nurse recognized me and was telling me about them and they have improved since I worked there 10 years ago. I hope the pay has as well and I hope they still like me. LOL.
I live in Texas and have had scrapple for breakfast before.....sm
I haven't seen it around lately. We have something down here that is similar but for some reason it really grosses me out....hog head cheese.
