Maybe we will have to do something similar when you get out here, I would prefer not to drive 60 miles for breakfast so maybe lunch or dinner and possibly a trip to the range.sbrawley wrote:As long as I'm here I'll be making em.

Today, they called to let me know that a few of references have been unreachable. We talked for about 15 minutes and I was told that due to my experience here with Harris County, that they were told to fast track my application and so far everything is looking good. At this rate, we could be out of Houston by this summer.
I hope you'll still be able to join us one or two more times for the Houston West Quadrant Breakfasts!

How do you explain a dog named Sauer without first telling the story of a Puppy named Sig?

He said that since I live out of town he's going to try to have me finish the rest of my processing that day to include meeting the chief deputy. If everything goes well, I should be able to start with them on July 10.
To all of you guys and gals at the Houston West Quadrant Breakfast, it looks like I'll get one more breakfast with y'all.
Congrats sbrawley!!
Hope everything works out for you in Lubbock County. You will have to buy you some winter clothing, it does get a lot cooler there, than in Houston.
Keep us updated, on your move. Have you wife get on here and relate her impressions, and experiences out west, it will be a big change for her as well.

Re: Time to move
Isn't that something how people are lining up to buy your house in a neighborhood that you want out of. You would think it would be hard to sell there. The same thing happened to my brother about 20 years ago in Sharpstown. His realtor had a list of people looking for houses in that area, which is now Chinatown.sbrawley wrote:Things are moving along pretty smoothly. Notice has been turned in to my current employer, waiting to close on the house in Lubbock, and our realtor has been getting multiple calls to see our current house. According to her, homes in our area are selling on average within 2 weeks so hopefully ours will be a very quick sale. We had a cash buyer look at it today, and another is scheduled for tomorrow. Here's to a new life and a new adventure.
Do what you say you're gonna do.
