the focal point will probably be that you’ve never done this at this time. allow emotions to come and go as a sign of change and nothing else for two years. never doubt yourself, that only happens if you’re exhausted so eat and rest. if you have a phantom time table, multiply it by four. sketch with brutal honesty. paint self portraits. take the bad with the good and bring a coyote. something real from home. you’ll know. congratulations on a big step!! you’ll feel like a teenager again!

Watch out for chiggers.

Ticks, chiggers, mosquitoes, Oak Mites, Copperheads and Rattlesnakes.

If the person is moving for a job, be sure to check out health care benefits. If it’s a snowbird situation, be sure to check out health care insurance. Be aware of what the deductibles are, when they’re due (usually upfront)and what to do, where to go and what the person is responsible for financially in a health care situation. It doesn’t take much in the States to rack up huge health care bills.

Fort Worth Texas is nice, my husband was stationed close to there for a couple of years. The people are nice and it’s a pretty clean looking area, nice lakes, nice highways too. The ocean is within a days drive. Check out both Dallas and Austin too, they both have great art scenes.

I spent a month in Houston and often flew through Dallas airport on the way to Nashville. I could live in Nashville, not sure about Houston, but I wasn’t there long enough to really know the place, the people I met were nice.

learn to love boiled peanuts, then they will think you are really a Texan.

I associate boiled peanuts with various southern states. Texas is surely known for Tex-Mex, chicken fried steak, kolaches, and drinking Dr. Pepper.
Watch for pick-up trucks and assorted vehicles with long horns attached to the front grille.
Make sure they purchase some cowboy boots.
