Made it in to OKC last night around 10p. Started my new job today. Staying at the Hampton Inn off of 40 by Tinker for the next two weeks then moving to an extended stay off of 240. It is soo good to be back.
I left at the right time though. My wife is sick at home with the flu, 101-103 temp, aches & pains, the dog is puking all over the place too. :eek:
I feel so bad for her right now and wish I was there to take care of her, but also am glad I am not around that and getting it too. Is that wrong?? Bless her heart, she sounds so bad on the phone.
My wife is officially a faculty member of Oklahoma City University starting in August. We will go house shopping in a few weeks when she comes in for Spring Break. Everything is falling in to place nicely.
I'm jealous as heck. (Well, not for the flu part. But the rest.) Congratulations!

Welcome home. Glad you made it here safely. Good to hear the news on your wife getting a job here. That's awesome.
And no, you aren't wrong for not wanting to be back there with her while she is sick. LOL I wouldn't want to be around anyone sick either, especially with the flu like that.

Hey, KP!!! I am so happy for you, but I feel so sorry for your wife. I'd say welcome home, but I'm in WV, so I will say ... lost my train of thought. It'll come back to me sometime today.
It's going to take some time getting used to BourbonPoke.
