Re: I am missing Texas- want to move back!! Ideas?
I live in Temple and work in Waco at Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center. I love my job, and would not want to work at Scott & White (in Temple), nor would I live in Waco. It's not a bad commute, especially if you work 3-12 hour shifts.
Temple is a medium sized town with many of the ammenities of a larger city without too much of the traffic and congestion (except for evening time near S&W). There are good schools for later when you decide to have children, Temple College, and nice neighborhoods. I just bought a brand new house last November, and there are lots of new houses still being built.
Feel free to PM me if you'd like more info or have questions.
I miss trees, humidity (yes, I really do), and the southern way of life. After living in Phoenix for three years I am tired of the big city life. So, I am hoping you can help give me some suggestions on where to go. I want to stay in the southern portion of Texas and I would love to live in a smaller town. Austin is still too big. I was thinking the hill country or perhaps a cute small town outside of houston. I have to keep in mind a nursing job of course and I am wondering if its difficult to live in a smaller town and get employed at a small hospital unlike the bigger cities where they are in need. The other issue is that I am single and as much as I fantasize about living a simple life in a small town in texas and okay- marrying a cowboy-

I am so homesick. We are going back in a few weeks. I miss everything about texas. (even the humidity) I lived in Conroe. It's about 40 miles north of houston (towards dallas) It's a fairly small town. Or if you want to be further out there is Montgomery. It's far enough out to be like country living - but close enough to town. Conroe and it's neighbor the woodlands have 3 great hospitals. You would only have like a 20 minute drive to work from Montgomery. (memorial hermann the woodlands, conroe regional, or St. Lukes women hospital) Good luck!
there is nothing like HEB produce
