Howdy, Ya'll

Now please don't get me wrong, I am not dissin' the south, but I was shocked to realize yesterday that I have now begun the process of assimilation. We just moved to Texas in December and yesterday I caught myself telling a coworker that I was "fixin'" to do something. I am now officially in acculturation mode.

Good Morning!

I thought since you are new to blogging...I would visit you again!

Loved your post today!

I know what you mean about southern speak...my brother-in-law and family live in Dallas; it's hard to believe he was EVER a northerner!

Hi Mary! Well, it looks as if you're one of "us" now. My husband swore when we got married and he moved to TX for good and had to get a TX driver's license that he would not really be a Texan (he grew up in NM), but, alas, he has caved. Still doesn't speak "Texan," though. I'm the only one in the family saying y'all. =)
