Our family is officially in El Paso, yet still homeless. We are living in the "Quality Inn and Suites" and we have been here almost a month. The bank set a closing date for out house for the 11th of March, but as you know it is past that, and we have not heard any news yet from them. Our Realtor tells us to just plan on living in the house that we have put an offer on, but the bank hasn't even "officially" excepted our offer and so we're feeling very up in the air. Actually I feel fine and we are in a nice, 2 bedroom 2 bathroom suite and so I am not in a hurry, but Adam is feeling very anxious. So for his sake, if anybody feels like offering a prayer for us that would be great!
Anyway, we LOVE El Paso! I am sooo Surprised! But I love it here! I love the weather! I am so glad to be out of humidity!!!! I hated that swamp muggy feeling all the time. I am so glad to have the wonderful warmth of Texas, but back in the desert! I love it. Plus there are palm trees everywhere. It makes me feel like I'm in California, but it's still as cheap as Texas. I'm not kidding. I have made no secret that Texas was not my favorite place to be. In fact I would go as far as to say that I was on the verge of hate. So when we found out that we were moving here to El Paso, my heart sank. But I am telling you now that I don't ever want to leave! I LOVE the house that we have chosen, I love the branch that we are in, the members are fabulous here, and I love the warm beautiful weather and all the palm trees. It's like living on vacation. There is so much to do here, but the area that we are in still feels like small town. Anyway, I'm happy to report that we finally feel like we're home and where we're supposed to be!!!

I'm so glad that you are all together and in a place you love! Hopefully you'll get settled into your home soon.
Hey, Ange. We lived in El Paso about 25 years ago! Carl was stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas and we lived there for about a year, I think. I'm glad you love it there. I have good memories of it, myself.
I am so glad that you like it there. We might be passing through the end of July to go to Arizona, I'll let you know when we figure it out for sure. I'm glad you like the hotel life and I hope you can get into your new home soon!
I am so happy to read that. I hope by now you know more about the house. Keep us all posted. Audrey asked for Gabby the other day. ;)
