I tried to look into what I was getting into before I got here. Dallas 1.4 Million people, .. Calgary 1.1 Million ... Okay there. NOPE ... they have this thing called the metroplex, there are about 7 million people living here ... the traffic is brutal, no one signals, everyone drives 100km or more. Healthcare, yeah, Ive had to use it a couple times, almost 500 for that. Ive yet to meet anyone who likes the healthcare system here. Crime, and guns, yeah, gangs and whatnot scare me, Ive never held a gun, dont plan to. But honestly, these last things, Im sure in Calgary it was abundant too, I was just in a comfort zone with my life, my job, my home, and never paid attention to the nasty things around the city. The jobs .. wow ...it sucks here. I made 47k last year, now Im looking between 10 to 14 an hour. That bites.

But I have yet to be homesick. Go figure.

My husband has been amazing with me, and ive met alot of his friends, and their wives, and they are good people that we have alot of fun with. In the social aspect of my life, my love life, here with him is much better than I had in Canada.

I guess its just a trade off.
