What you are wanting to do can be found under the "POINTS" tab. Set your symbol and point attribute layout under "POINT DEFAULTS" and you set your text size under "draw, locate points".
The problem that you are running into with everything changing MAY lie in the way you setup your drawing, Are you setting scale, etc. using the "CARLSON CONFIGURE" option? If so, STOP DOING THAT!! Use "DRAWING SETUP" instead. It controls just the drawing that you are currently in. Carlson Configure is used for standards configuration where all future sheets will be the same, It will override the Drawing Setup settings.
Remember too that whenever you set up anything the way you want it, look for the "SAVE" radio button and click it. This alone can save many a headache
