Why do I live in Oklahoma?

When my minimum age of retirement arrives in 2018, I'm gone from OK. No disrespect, I'm oklahoma born and bred but. I ain't retiring here.

Just the other day I was gazing out the front window and spotted a car come to a slow stop. After a while the car started moving again but very slowly, watched it for a few seconds and decided someone had the drivers door open and pushing the car. I jumped in my PU to run out and see if they needed any help.

What I found was a 50ish year old lady pushing her car because she had ran out of gas. Have no idea where she thought she was pushing it to because the next house is 1/2 mile away around a corner. I came back to the house, grabbed my lawnmower gas and gave her enough gas to get to a station. She offered payment but I wouldn’t take anything. Just being an Okie I guess, semed like the right thing to do at the time..

Had a similar situation a couple years ago, loaned the guy a gas can and a few bucks and he stole the money and the gas can.

Up til 4 years ago I lived in Chicago and I loved it, except the winter, I now live in Oklahoma I call it home, but not cuz I want to. All I can say bout living here is "shoooow me the mooooney" oil field life is long and hard but it pays goooood.

How could money be the only reason you like living here? You are on a pro 2A forum and you say you loved chicago? Basically the worst place in the country to want to live if you are a 2A supporter. I don't get that. I get it may be home and familiar but I guarantee Oklahoma is 10 times better than there. There are too many reasons to list why I love my state. You might try checking into some of them. You may just fall in love yourself.

If I could find a place in Colorado with Okie-level friendliness, I would be there already. I went to high school and the first 2 years of college in CO, I miss it desperately. Family is keeping me here in OK.

+1... There's too much world out there to stay in one place.

The restraining order,....It keeps me from moving very far ....

Besides, those ankle bracelet monitors only have so much range.
