Re: fellow Texans and introduction

[Guest guest]

Hi to all, I've been watching the conversation and wanted to jump in. I live

in Round Rock, TX, like Debbie, Hi neighbor. I joined the group a few weeks

ago but I've been in the middle of Rituxan infusions and a bunch of Doctors

appointments so I haven't had time to post until today.

I'm an on and off again Texan, since I grew up as a military brat about 1/2

my life in the mid-Atlantic area(Penna.-to Washington, DC), and about 1/2 in

the Austin-Houston area. I know we got some Aggies here, I graduated in 95. I

tried UT right out of high school but found it too big and overwelmimg, A & M was

a lot more accommodating to my disabilities, eye damage from RA and joint

problems.

I moved back to Texas last summer because my son and DIL retired from the

Navy and moved from Norfolk to Austin, I coun't stand another winter with all

the

ice and snow, but I did forget how hot it does get here! I've never seen

electric bills like this before, around $200 for a one bedroom apartment, ouch.

I

did notice the cost per kW is twice what I was paying on the East coast. My

heat is gas, so hopefully, I can have a low bill during this next winter and

play catch up with my other bills.

I'm so glad I found this group and all the fellow Texans.

Almost forgot, my name is , and I'm a very proud Grandmother 0f 2, one

boy 3 and one girl 1 years old.

I'm looking forward to have some more time after next week to participate.

Nice to meet you all.

Well howdy neighbor !

Welcome to the group! I have been a member here since May. Everyone

here is nice and informative. posts great articles on the site

frequently. Feel free to ask questions and share more of your RA story.

I am not a native Texan but originally from Ohio. By way of the Air

Force I ended up here. I am a graduate of UT master's nursing program.

It wasn't too intimidating for me. We use gas heat at home and it is

cheaper. A/C is bad though.

warm hugs,
