thanks t2b.. i pm'd u..

stone...those are some really scary stories girl.. i don't blame ur hubby for wanting to move to something TOTALLY opposite.. my mom used to be the SAME way.. when we looked for my old house, she would get mad if we looked at areas predominatly black, said it was gonna be ghetto and ray tay tay..

but becuz dallas has sooooo many minorities.. u can find some VERY nice areas that are not just ALL white.. i like to be around all kinds of ppl, and i DEFINATELY don't want to be the only person that looks like me around..

same hold true for most cities

when safety is a factor, then that is one thing but a neighborhood that is not predominantly white does not equal ghetto

Ok VJers.. I have a question that has been lurking on my mind (hope it hasn't been asked and if it has, please lead me to the page):

How hard would you think it would be or has it been for your SO to get accustomed to living in a town/city that is predominantly white? I ask this because I was talking w/ my hubby about living in such an area and he states that he doesn't know if he could. Now he did say that since he loved me, he would live there, but he strongly thinks he'd try to convince me to move. It is a culture shock for them to move to another country in itself, but to also move to where there are very very few minorities. Have any of you experienced such a thing??

*sidenote:

I am in no way, shape or form racist and I do not ask this to hurt feelings or cause drama. Just a curious mind is all I have, :blush:

It was apparently VERY hard in my case....

I am like you Quana I am forever missplacing my keys, work badge, phone you name it. I even try to put them in the same place everyday but it doesn't matter. One time I was tearing the place up looking for my keys and was almost in a panic and then I realized my shirt had the pass through pocket around the stomach and they were in there. I just pretended I had found them some where in the house so I wouldn't look like an idiot because they were in my pocket all along! Shhhh it is still a secret!

I can attest to that...... :whistle::whistle:

Heck I have left my purse on the back of the chair at the Bread Company (Panera) got all the way home and noticed hours later. Thank God someone turned it in and I went back and got it. Boot Camp might be good for me.

i agree.. girl i didn't listen to my mama, mi a big ooman, she turn her nose up all she want.. but i did understand why she had that perception from her experiences.. just like stone's husband.

new experiences give u a new way of thinking!! :thumbs:

I used to work with an attorney who was SO bad at losing things - he even left his clothes in the closet of the hotel when he went on vacation! When we were prepping for trial, I used to make 10 copies of each document and put them in a folder - the last sheet had a sticky note on it that said - You are on your last copy, go find the ones you lost -

It never failed that he would come to me cause he had lost all 10 copies = and then wondered why I never let him touch the originals -

Happy Birthday Dillon!!!!

Ells- I know kids are not in your thoughts at the moment, but with all the talk of you and Lehi's name being similar I was wondering if your kids will have similar names too?? Like will your daughter just be Lee? Or put a twist on your common lee's and do Ashlee? O.K. I'm thought entirely too much about your kid's names.
