I did not say Texas was bad, I have been there by the way, stayed in a hotel for 6 week's in Whichatore Fall's, everything looked even less green than it dose here, I'm not going to start slagging the place, it's your life and we all see thing's different. If you can stay happy like you seem to be now, thats great for you and your's, best of luck to you

I never meant you specifically with the why is Texas so bad. You just hear it a lot that's all. We are happy here as you know a few ups and downs with things going on back home but apart from that it's all good.
I don't like to think that people are unhappy with where they live, life's too short for that and like you say if you can stay happy then that's half the battle.

No I've not been here long but in that time I have lost my eldest daughter who has gone back to Uk as the school here could not give her classes other tha 4 until September, and hubby's boss is a complete beep hole.

Our dog is stuck here till July but I fly the 18th of June as soon as my other girls have finished school for the summer.

I cant wait! 10 weeks 2 days to go

ok i entered. If i win i am looking for a female that dont mind sharing a room and shopping trips for a freebie.

hi iam here in san antonio .this is the worst place i have every lived .you are always an outsider .its only my 2 girls that keep me in this arm pit .i have tryed for 7 years to fit in .

Put my name in the hat Dee to accompany you! Don't mind sharing a bed either it won't be the first time!!!

Sorry to heat you are so miserable here.
I'm still a newbie so still early days for me. Nine months in. I just wanted to do it so as I would not sit in the UK in twenty years from now and think why on earth did we not take a chance. I came here for my OH and I'm glad I did.
Maybe in a couple years I'll feel as you do but I hope not, who knows what's round the corner though!
Best of luck to you Britex and I hope you find happiness sooner rather than later!
