mrmquilt Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Okay someone please tell me there are wonderful guilds and quilt groups around these areas, Lordstown, Lisbon, Youngstown, Warren etc. We found out Oct. 27 that my husband has to report to work in Lordstown on Nov. 17. So we are looking at houses around that area. We spent last weekend weeding out areas and this weekend we are looking at houses in Lisbon area. The schools don't look promising in that area and I have 2 kids in school. I think Bobbi lives in Defiance and ( hope I have the name right, I can see your face in my mind) Barb I think lives in Boardman. Please tell me there are some friendly quilt groups in the area. I have very little computer time right now. Mostly I spend my computer time looking at houses. I'm trying to shut down my business, pack up the house we live in and do repairs so we can put it on the market, etc. What a mess. Anyhow I thought I'd ask here. Thanks Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rita Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Michele -Bobbi and I joined a guild a few months ago that's FANTASTIC...the other night we found out that the girl/woman who runs "thousandsofbolts.com" is probably going to join...the guild is in Hanoverton and sometimes meets in Salem...about 20 minutes from Lisbon. and I was thinking of you the other day...if you're that close we could dye fabric together...cool beans!

Rita Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Michele -out of curiosity...where does your husband work? Mine worked at GM, Lordstown...we're in Alliance, about 40-45 minutes away. Marlington is a good school district...good luck with it all! Rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmquilt Posted November 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Rita, Yep that is where he is going to work. I'm having a real hard time with my husband and a house. He is being very picky about land, trees etc. Stupid, who needs 8 acres when 4 will do and you can plant trees if there aren't enough. ARGGG. We looked at 5 available houses today, 2 hours away one way, all that my husband wanted to look at because of the land. None worked. So he is not willing to work his way north. ARGGGG I'm going to kill him before this is over. Gotta go. Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rita Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 I'm confused...2 hours from you in Mansfield or 2 hours from Lordstown?! Let me know if I can be of any help. Good luck! Rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmquilt Posted November 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Rita, Sorry about the confusion, LOL. I'm not the happy laughing girl you met right now. My mind is going in a 100 different directions. 2 hours from Mansfield, with an 8 yr old and a 14 yr old. Bless your heart for wanting to help. Pray is the only thing I can think of. I have found MANY suitable homes and there is always something he doesn't like about them. Thanks, I'll probably need to show up at your house for quilt talk when we move.

Stagecl Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Michele, If the school system is not to your liking you can home school. I home schooled mine at different times because of the school systems. I am fortunate that my girls were driven to complete their school work and I never had any problems. My youngest completed her last 2 years of high school at home and has graduated from University of Virginia. It was great having her around, but we are good friends too.

Stagecl Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 I don't envy you and house hunting. I just moved too. There are plenty of houses on the market. It is always difficult to find just the right one. I looked at 24 before we made an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
