Hi and Bye...just got into my uniform and I'm heading into work...got here too late (again ) for a nap before my 12 hrs and I'm already feeling a h/a
Night all...
@Beth-hope you recuperate soon...I had a bronchial infection that lasted for two weeks plus...take care
Oh Mark, how many times have I told you that you're not allowed to have the last spot.
Hey there Ray. hows it going this fine friday night? i am just messing around with colors and templete of my blog. See what you think now if you will for me. I got rid of a few things and tried to make it more simple looking and adsence to stand out more.
http://www.thecleanlife-mark.blogspot.com
Thank Ray and have a great weekend too!!
Hey Mark, I reviewed your blog. The adsense "box" of choice is too big for your side panel. Try to select something a tab bit smaller. If you noticed, it seems to push the borders of your right side....it's shows that it's too big for the space. It stands out sure, but looks like it's a formatting error more than anything else.
Other than that, it looks great.
Thanks Ray for checking out and I did notice the overlap on Box. That happened when i added the blue border. I could remove blue border but I think it give it some color rather than all White . I will send link with the correct box
@ Cara -- that's wonderful! You have a great weekend too!
@ Denise -- oh, I hope it's just garden variety flu. I can't afford to miss any work!!! Glad you're feeling better.
@ Mark -- South sounds mighty fine at the moment. First snowflakes falling tonight.... guess winter's here and just a few days after daylight savings! hugs & kisses (oh, wait, I think I'm a bit contagious, so stay back.....)
@ Cags -- hey there!!! Guess what?!? HUGS and plenty of KISSES!!!
@ Klara -- when's the next flight out of this ice box?!? I can be on the next one down!!! Or Mark can swing up with his yacht and pick me up!!!!
Have a good weekend y'all! I'm heading under the covers for the whole weekend. Sleep. Plenty of sleep!! (ok, the bear's hibernating....)
xox
Beth my dear I certainly hope you feel better when you awake tomorrow. Drink your fluids and rest rest rest. Much love to you Dear

Hellow!!!!
I've not been on because my daughter took over the computer. She's known as Streetdancer here on HP! She's been waiting a long time for her own account - and can finally have one!!
She's written her second instalment to her novel "Final Chapter" or "Away Train" which contains the second chapter -- not sure which will be the title yet. I published Final Chapter for her last year, and now she's doing it all own her own!! I'm so proud of her!!!
I'm riding the excitment, but will more than like plop back into bed for the day. This is a big week -- accreditation at work.... yuck! a full week of surveyors and tracers. @ Denise -- don't you just love this when they do this?!?
Have a lovely Sunday everyone!!!
You're it Glad that you are here... and need to check out that daughter of yours... wow , novel did you say... mmm I am going to take a look soon..
Awesome Beth! Congrats to you both. I'll have to check it out.
Beth--I'm so excited for you and her! What a proud moment. I'll be sure to check her out. Thanks for the FYI.
Hello HubGirls on this very windy and cloudy day at the Jersey Shore. Working on sunroom putting the glass in for the Winter BooHoo
I want Summer Back Lol Bad.
It's hard to say goodbye to summer, Mark.
Hi Jenna Nice to see you here today. Hope all is well with you and thnks for following my blogN
Cara, you're such a beautiful girl!
Mark, florida it is! Just came back from our new daily walk up and down the beach. Love it! Pictures will be coming soon as well.
Thanks Klara, you really are too kind!
What a great fun you must be having. Can't wait to see the pics!
You are so lucky and nice temps as well. Yeah we are all waiting for the pics, Can't wait I'm suree they are beautiful. Lin and I are hitting the beach tomorrow. I bumbed cause I am losing my Tan, so I told Lin if we lived here and Florida I would be tan year round LOL. We just got back from walking King Tut
Klara- I totally agree, even if she is my daughter. I think that all the time-how'd I get so lucky? ! ooooh, maybe she was adopted? or the stork brought her from a far away land, ?
@ Card -- thank you! She's so excited that she can barely keep off the computer. Lucky for her, I'm off in bed or we'd be tossing coins to see who gets it!!
@ Sophs -- ha ha No, YOU'RE it!! Thanks, Sarah's so excited! She keeps checking her hubs and her followers.
@ Mark -- enjoy the sun! It was warm today so I ventured out for some sun. It didn't stay around too long -- sunrise at 6:40 am with sunset at 4:28 pm. KLARA - SEND ME SOME SUN!!!
@ Mark -- thank you for following my daughter. She's so pleased and excited! I remember the first day I signed on and published my first hub! xox
@ Klara -- how's the weather?!? thanks for sending a bit of warmth up my way. I appreciate it -- A LOT!!
@ Steven -- where are you?!? Thank you for following Sarah -- she's very excited! and, excited to read your reviews! Thanks also, for sharing her hubs. I appreciate that.
xoxo miss you !
Hey there my Beth. Glad you got a chance to get soem sun in today
I am happy for your daughter. She will do fine here. I have to read her first hub. I just spent like over a hour filling out a app. for Home depot online. Man they ask everything and then a test to top it off. It would be awesome to work there considering I have much experience in all fields (Building Many homes too) PLUS it is only one (1) mile from my house. I could walk if I had to LOL Better than 60 miles each way wouldn't you say ?
Good Monday Morning and good night everyone...have to get some shut eye before my drive back home. Have a wonderful day
Good Morning Denise and have a safe ride home> Home you sleep well and talk to you later
Denise, you are really a busy woman... Sleep well Take care
Beth I am yet to look at Sarah's Hubs... the contest is hotting up...
Markie there you are dependable as always.. and there is spoilt mason ...
LOL he is so cute
Goodnight...my day is drawing to an end...
but guys have a wonderful time
@ Mark -- good luck with the application! I've heard they're a very good employer. Some of the nurses I work with, their husbands work there. I've considered working there part time myself in the design department for kitchens and baths. A long way from designing homes, but it would keep my hands in the business. Let us know how it goes! I'm rooting for you! And thanks for following my daughter.
@ Sophs -- yup, you're it again! I can honestly say that I'm not sending in any contest entries but my daughter is making up for it! ha ha hope you have a great day/evening!
@ Klara -- always open to receiving hugs and good vibes! Thanks Klara!
@ Cara -- hope your week with the kids (school) will go good!
@ Steven -- still missing you! oxo
@ Denise -- have a safe drive home! (you're probably already back at home!)
@ everyone: thank you for supporting my daughter! Thanks a bunch!
Have a great afternoon y'all! Chat again soon!
Just added your daughter but she's a teenager already?! And you look so young in your avatar picture! Pleeeeeease tell me that pic of your rocking body was you ten or fifteen years ago before I go shoot my head!!! I'm so envious!!! Aaaah!!
Hey there Sunshine ALL OF YOU ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!!!!INSIDE AND OUT
Don't shoot yourself!!! yes, it's an old pic! no worries.
Hi Beth, Your daughter has some awesome pictures on here Hubs. Does she take all those pics with her camera? I just finished article on my blog. i had better start writing back here on HP for I now have a 88 score.
Have a wonderful everning !!!!!
xoxoxoxoxo amd more and more:)
Hi Beth my Dear, You are very welcome for the follow and I haven't been on here today cause I am filling out apps. for employment on line. Wow they sure have changed things since my last app was filled out on real paper LOL each application has 50-60 question test after you tell them all your info. Man it better not to ever work and just go fishing LOL !!!!!
catch up with you later my eyes are killing me
Hey Girls you woun't believe where I applied also >>> Manager @ McDonalds and Lin says what are you crazy they don't pay...Are you embarrassed if I would work there because you shouldn't be. Everyone that goes there are AT least happy and ready to get their children their Happy Meal. When I change my life I really go drastic don't I. hey what the heck I am a manager now in you know where so what;s the difference. Sorry to vent on you lovely girls LOL
One mile to work yaaaaa. ands believe it or not they don't pay that bad for a manager that is. It's all I need considering I have no real expenses now
Most fast food chains do commit to promoting those employees that commit to the company and do a good job. I think it's a great idea! My cousin started as a manager of Wendy's and is now regional supervisor of several restaurants. He's been working for Wendy's for close to twenty years and makes very good money.
Good Morning Klara That is noce to hear about McDonald. I think I would enjoy something like that. Much different and happier than what I do now thats for sure. Heres my morning. I just got to work and on the way in the pines I was following a truck pulling a Boat snd all of a sudden I saw a huge thing flying towards my car and hit the windshilld so hard and yes broke it big time. I pulled the guy over and found nothiing that would have comwe off the boat so I have to spend money on that now.Anyway the point is that things like that wouldn't happen if I worked 1 mile away right. I hope I can get that job because I do Need a job change really bad Klara. I am burned out !!!!!
Enjoy your day hun as I will. I am still thinking positive even though my day started off bsd
And best wishes coming your way sir.. may you have your heart's desire..hope you are having a good day
Thank you Sophie and good evening to you my friend:) Hope all is well dear and when I make a life change I go all out don't I LOL Thanks ok I am sure I will be much happier
Marky-WHAT A BUMMER! and how frightening. I'm rooting for you at the local Mickey D's. It would be a blessing to be that close to work.
This is my third time posting here last and I still have not received my cash prize! lol
Never fear, ThunderKeys-the check is in the mail!
Hey Y'all(that's southern for 'Howdy' which is western for plain ole, 'hello')
Okay...obviously I am BORED! Not really, but I've ducked into the local library to do a quick touching base before onto the rest of my daily list of 'to do's'. First day back home is such a rat race to catch up with groc shopping, laundry, and housecleaning!
Anyway, I'm thinking of all of you and wanted you to know that.
hey Denise Good to have you bad, I'll buzz you a bit later
@ Mark -- it doesn't matter where you work. What matters is the quality of life that you have and whether you're happy their or not. The working environment is one of the most important aspects -- if it's a good place to work with a great atmosphere, and you're happy all day long and come home happy -- then what is there to be embarassed about? Nothing!! Hold your head up and be proud of yourself -- you've certainly proved to yourself that you can be anything and be anyone you want to be! I'd rather you happy, safe and satisfied with life than driving x miles each day, tired, potential accident waiting to happen and not happy.
I think it is brave of you to apply for positions within your mile radius. Smart move! I changed my employer for a job closer to home too -- and I don't regret it! I left the high tech sector into health care -- no money in this sector, but I enjoy what I do. (most days...
)
Gotta run.... to catch up and to make sure that this flu doesn't knock me out completely!
xox
And as always sweetheart , you have touched my heart again. Thank you so much for caring about me and my happiness Beth. you are a wonderful person and friend and I really hope you feel all better when you wake up tomorrow. As I said before I get upset when my dear friends are feeling ill.
I will stay in touch with any results about employment. Ii just love this place HP and love all those that are here and supporting each other. I think it is wonderful and I am so glad I have friends like you.
Feel better Beth and drink your fluids
oxoxox
<3 I only speak what I feel.
I will -- I'm drowning myself with water -- literally.
My daughter has taken all the photos on her own. She carries her camera everywhere she goes. Reminds me of me when I was her age. I was an avid photographer -- dark room and all! It's so different now -- all digital, manipulate the photos immediately, no waiting. I started her with my Nikon that is film. She was using this for about two years before I let her try the digital (my Sony). When my Sony was stolen, I bought her Nikon for her birthday. It was a good purchase and I'm thinking about upgrading her to a DSLR for a Christmas present.
But, I have to put in more hours at work to pay for this one!
Thank you for supporting her and me. I am grateful for friends like you and the whole HubGang that we have here.
I am really running off now, so have a good sleep and rest your eyes. Never mind the hubscore -- you and I both know that it goes up and down all the time. Look at mine -- I haven't been in the low 90s for ages! Oh well, that's par for the course!
Luv ya!! xoxo
Good night sweetie and luv ya too:):)Feel better soon
I am the winner... no one is around yippeee ...i am getting my cheque... it is in the post of course
No No No my Dear marky is here to save the day LOL. Hope you had a great day and guess you are ready for sleepy Tell Marky Hi for me
Sign my up for two please LOL. hey Klara, how is my girl today? It has been pouring rain all day but warm. How is the weather down your way ?
Hey Mark! Wheather is beautiful here... sunny and warm. Pepper steak heroes going your way!
Just watched a movie called The Bang Bang Club. Really great film based on a real story. I highly recommended.
Yuck! I better go to bed!!! my dog's got gas!!! Must go to the bedroom to breath... bye Mark. Good night!
Oh, am I a winner?
I had pepper steak over rice a couple days ago... wicked good.
yes you were a winner and welcome to our forum
Hi Markie... how are you?
Hi Klara.. try not to eat too much...
where is Denise and Beth...busy , busy ,busy I guess...
Good evening Sophie and I hope your day and night is going as great as you are:) As always say Hi to your son Mary
Look at you again Denise 99 and mine was a big 90 two hours ago and now heading South again Hope all is well my dear
Hello you guys! My little dog is doing better, no more gas. Thank GOD!
You guys are all doing good?!
I'm so happy to be home! Heading over to my balcony to check out the view and water my plants. I'm not cooking tonight. It's Klara's day off!
Hey there SunShine. Take a break and get take out LOL to eat while enjoying that beautiful veiw and the smell of ther salt air. salt air makes me sleepy when out in it all day and I then sleep like a log. got to love it right? i am glad your doggy is doing better. I didn't know he/she was feeliing ill.
It is nasty here Klara, rain for two days and bitter damp cold. I just got done walking Mason with Linda and the cold goes right through my chest. Couldn't wait to get back to my nice cozy house and cuddle on the couch ready to waych a couple Christmas shows. Linda has the whole house decorated inside and oout and looks beautiful. She had to do it now because her job called yesterday for her to come back to work on the 28th. She is not happy. The poor little beach bum now has to work
No, I love when she is home and not have to work. She told her boss this is the last season for her to work and she will then retire and be a full time beach bum
Mark, when I get out of work and cross the Julia Tuttle causeway there is a switch that turns from Stress to Rest inside my head. This is my view coming back from work. I love being close to the water.
BEAUTIFUL KLARA !!!!! I can tell you are soooooo Happy and that makes me happy for you, I told you beach living is awesome. This is what life is all about!! To enjoy and take in every beautiful site and to see it everyday is the most wonderful thing in the entire world.
I can see me and Lin on that road now heading East to see the best Beach Bum in the world :)WELCOME TO MIAMI BEACH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, yes, yes!
You guys must come visit! especially now that your temperatures begin to drop. It's 75 degrees right now, and if my husband wasn't a cranky sleeper I would leave the windows open, but he wakes up with every little noise and starts complaining. So I leave the window closed so I don't have to hear him!
That and also the fact that I don't want to wake my neighbors with my snoring!
Yes Yes Yes and Yes We would love to come visit and I CAN PROMISE you when we come to Florida (soon I hope) my first stop will be to see you and your husband.I hope he doesn't mind Klara. We won't stay more than a month or so LOL LOL Na just kidding dear. But when the weather starts to really get cold Linda may have a different tune
Enjoy your evening whats left of it right? I guess I'll be hitting the sack soon after I check my $0.00 adsense for today :LOL:
Good night Klara and enjoy your new place > Can't wait to see you and your Home By the Sea

Hi Mark,
Sorry.. I can't stand Phil Collins' voice! I think he's a great talent but to me, his voice sounds like he's got a tummy ache!
I love the picture! Is that where you live?
My sister's house (well it was 1/2 mine until I sold my half out to her) is right on the bay with dock, boat etc. but yes I live 6-8 minutes from the Island which is called Long Beach Island. I just love it here Klara as I know you love where you are now too.
This is a new beginning for us and our spouses. In my case a real new beginning, by getting that monkey off my back once and for all (Alcohlism) Once I quit Klara my whole world and life changed all for the better.
I know everyone might be sick and tired of hearing me brag but it makes me feel so good to always remind myself just what I had accomplished over the last 2 years.
Enjoy your night and take in all you can and relax and breathe in that salt air
Stormy day here in SF, so no looking out the balcony today.
Tomorrow I'm going to a workshop for music teachers and I will present to fellow teachers a few little tricks on how to teach. It should be fun!
I never get tired of hearing your success story, Mark. You must feel very proud!
Good night! Talk to you tomorrow!
You got it Klara. I have to work but I will check in often to see how everything is going. Enjoy the workshop and I'm sure they will learn so much form a great teacher such as yourself.
Can you imagine when we finally met each other and our spouses we will have enough to talk about for days.
Good night Klara (SunShine) Sleep well and have a wonderful weekend
Hi everyone...been trying to submit some hubs to the contest!
Hope all is well with everyone here.
Marky-it was so good talking with you on the phone the other day. Next time-my turn!
Have a good night, all...tomorrow is my work week again.
Good Morning everyone on this chilly bright Sunny Day Wish I was home instead of working
Good morning Mark or is it good night...how are you? Still Writing as many hubs as possible each day ...lol Gosh... I am trying hard to catch up wid you...
HI Denise, Klara, Cara, Beth, Steven ( MIA )and Cags
Have a wonderful evening
FIRST OFF a HUGE congrats to you on your 100 score!!! Well done Sophie and Good Morning to you My score keeps going down. I haven't been in the 80's in over a year and very depressed about that but it will come up. I haven't been writing any hubs lately and still at 269 of them. i have been writing on the Clean Life blog instead. Up to I think 48 of them.
Got to get to bed hun becuase i have to be in work early Saturday and work till 1pm so I will check in them
Much Love to you and tell Marky good Morning too
Don't worry about your scores.. I have stopped looking at them..Goodnight to you Marky.. sleep tight
Hi Sofs! I'm awake with you (at work). I'm on break right now.
Nice number you're wearing!
Have a nice day-see you around.
Good Morning all you lovely HubGirls!! Hope your evening is going well Sophie and as for you Denise , I bet you are so tired from working that midnight shift. Get home and get your rest. Linda and I are coming down with something sinus crap. and I feel like crap. I am at work now and have to drive two hours after work and meet Lin and my sister for dinner at my aunt's house. She just turned 80.
Then....I have to drive two hours back to the shore so I will have a long day ahead. Take care girls and if Klara is aroundPLEEEEZE SEND ME SO HEAT, WARMTH AND BRIGHT HOT SUN
Hi Markie..take care ...maybe you should just call it off and rest... Get well soon... maybe we need to sail to a warmer clime.. :
There..sending some warmth .. and good wishes your way
aww thank you Sophie , Noe that make me feel better for sure. I just can't stand the cold weather and really never did, except when I was very young, I did Ice skate and ride the sleds, but that is when I probally hasd no sense LOL
Take care my dear and talk soon
Happy Saturday everyone! Applesauce is cooking on the stove and caramel apple bread has just left the oven! YUMMY!
Stay warm Mark. It's only been in the low 30s here so I can feel your pain!
Sofs, you must be very busy writing and judging those contest entries. I'm hoping to get a few done this weekend but the rest of life just keeps me too busy! Looking forward to my five day weekend next week.
Hi Mom, you'll probably pop in on your break tonight. Making the gingerbread houses was great fun this year. Much more relaxed now that the younger two are a little older. Jennifer and I actually got to watch most of the time.
Klara, not sure I want to ask how the weather is down there but I hope you're enjoying it nonetheless!
Hi to anyone else I missed, Beth, Steven...
Hi ya Cara. Hope you are having a fun filled weekend. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Just got home from dinner at my aunts house. Travel a total of 197 miles today between going to work and to dinner. had a great time and just got home 9:45 afte leaving the house at 7am this morning. I'm beat so ready to walk mason or should say he will walk me LOL and watch some TV and fail a sleep on the couch
Cara-did you say you and Jennifer got to watch while drinking some wine?
Oh...no, I see you said 'most of the TIME' Just kidding-save the wine for when you're cooking that turkey!
Hi Marky, Sofs, Klara, Beth and all... Happy Thanksgiving.
Hi Klara. How is the weather down your way. I think you did send me warmth because it is 10PM now and 51 degrees. and the bay is smelling great
Enjoy the rest of your night and weekend. Got to walk King Tut now
Hey Mark! All good here. Nice weather, stars are out, and I got a lot done this weekend so that's good.
Have a quiet Monday and don't work too hard. It's a short week for most of us.
Hi Klara marky is sick but at work. No short week for me infact I am only off Turkey day and have to work Friday and saturday again. Enjoy your time off and send me som sun Miss SunShine
WooHoo! One more day of work and then a FIVE day weekend! Three pies in the oven, caramel apple bread is next. Hopefully the papers will be checked, lesson plans done, and decorations up before morning. I know, I know, high hopes but I want to RELAX this weekend!
Hi Cara Please don't rub it in I only have turkey day off and that is it
Although I will have a piece of pie
Have a blast Clara..you deserve it!!
Awww...Markie...sorry that you don't have a short weekend..I thought you would have a holiday for thanksgiving ..cheers...Ask Linda to make a extra special pie for you
Denise... are you working or you also have a long weekend?
Beth ... How are you?
Steven..MIA where are you ???
Good Morning Sophie !!! Just sitting here writing on my blog. Haven't been writing on HP but I should to get my Hub count to a even 270 instead of 269 have a great day and tell Markie Hello for me too
Yes Linda is cooking for all of my family the first Holiday in our new home
Sofs, Poor Denise has to WORK on Thursday, (thanksgiving night) and Friday then I have ONE day off in between and I work on Sunday eve also. This Sunday is my nephews 18th birthday! I can't believe it. That means I will no longer be his legal guardian and he will be his own free self.
Cara--I want some of that bread...sounds heavenly. I can only imagine how great your kitchen/house smells. I guess I'll go burn some candles! :LOL: you know-the kind that says: pumpkin spice; and apple cinnamon on the bottom of the jar! Yay-I crack ME up too.
Hey Mark, that really stinks! Oh, well... keep looking for something else and you'll soon find it. Time to go and start anew!
Cara, you need to relax, girl! All that cooking! grading papers! decorations!!! Wow! Do what you can and nothing more. That's the way to go! What makes the holidays fun are the people you spend them with, not how much you get done. Remember that!
I'm going to a friend's house, a musician and long time friend, back in the old neighborhood. They're all nuts so I'm sure it will be a lot of fun! We'll probably end up having a jam session. That's usually how everything ends!
Good night everyone! I'm off to feed my dogie!
yes it stinks Klara > I have been putting apps on line every night. Something will come about I'm sure. You know me Mr. positivity !!!!
Have a great time at the Jam session. I remember those days myself They were the good old times Klara, But I am having a great time now in my life without jamming away.
If I don't see ya, which I hope I do..Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and to your husband too. BTW what is your hubbys name so I don't have to call him your husband ?
Night Night and enjoy your new life @ Sea Side
I actually really enjoy decorating my house for the holidays and baking. It's a nice release from the day to day grind. I just want to be able to enjoy the decorations this weekend instead of spending it just putting them up.
Have great time with your friends Klara.
Mark, I'm sending you a slice a cyber pie! And don't worry, that job stuff will work itself out.
Sophie, I know you don't celebrate Thanksgiving but have a slice of pie anyway!
Good Morning Cara . Thank you for the slice of pie. I was gooood!!. Linda has all the house decorated and ready for the Holidays. In fact she has all Christmas gifts bought and wrapped too. She does this every year and it works out great. But don't forget she is off the whole summer to shop and brouse
Lucky her. Me on the other hand I wait till the last minute like every guys does I suppose
Have a great day Cara !!!
Mark--that's funny! My husband was just like that. I used to get so annoyed with that! Oh well...it was what he did best, waited till the last minute. Why change up for Christmas!
Cara, I hear you...it is wonderfully relaxing to know that we can do something we enjoy that unwinds us from our stressful jobs. Cooking (believe it or not, daughter) is one of those things for me.
Klara-let me share with you one of my 'dreams' I've envisioned for some time now. I own a large home on the East coast that is used as a retreat or B & B and on w/e's there are visits from local musicians to have jam sessions; or poets reading their work; or fortune tellers reading palms...just something interesting going on. If ever, EVER I win the lottery and make that happen I'll contact you and you can visit and play music for us!
Denise!!! I want to read palms too!!!
I love cooking as well. I'm a huge fan of Rachael Ray and cook her recipes almost every day. I just love how she mixes flavors! I'm not a natural cook... I just follow recipes, but I love being in the kitchen chopping and seasoning away! And I'm superexcited because my friend just texted me to tell me she got me a professional knife set (real chef style) wooooohooooo!!! Can't wait!
Love you all guys!
Love ya Too Klara and I hope you and your husband have a wonderful first ThanksGiving in your new home. Relax and enjoy.
Ditto from me Klara, I love RR too and also am getting into cooking much more now then ever before.
As for the palm reading-you're hired!
Here is a video my cousin just sent me. Take a look a see what the power of prayer can do!!
Love ya HubGirls
http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=ko … ;vq=medium
Beautiful video, Mark... although, I must say... I wouldn't want to sail anywhere near that island knowing that the man was praying for a wife!
Thanks for sharing. It was really neat.
Hey Cara!!! How are the decorations coming along?! Are you baking some cookies or pie?! Are you sending it via UPS or Fedex?? YUM!
Well Mark is soaken ringing wet from walking Mason in the pouring rain. It hasn't stopped raining since this morning and I mean puring none stop and into tomorrow. Got home 2 hours it took, bad accident and can't see crap in the rain being also dark out. Linda put up the tree and house is all ready for Santa >>>I think Santa is me
Enjoy your view Klara and send me some SunShine
Poor Marky--sure doesn't help that you're sick and wet! Get well. I'll call on Wednesday. My day off.
Ok That sounds great Denise. I will look forward to your call and Have a great day and night ahead.
Pie Klara, cookies are for Christmas! Decorations were put on hold. Had to take Charlie Raisin to the vet last night. Sick kitty. Good news is that he is doing MUCH better. Decorations will have to go up between the chopping and finishing the baking.
Wow! I didn't know that...what was ailing him? Too much lovin? hahaha.

Love the pics Mark, thanks for sharing! Hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Ours was relaxing and uneventful. Got a little Christmas shopping done and I'm going enjoy this time off!
Thank you Cara. I am glad your day was nice and hope you have a great weekend too. I have to work, but look forward to heading back to the Sea at 1PM Saturday LOL. It is so nice out today here in NJ. In the low 60's and so so sunny, I am just loving that
Awesome SunSet on the way home from work last night
Morning all you lovely HubGirls
Hello everyone! I trust you all had a wonderful, safe Thanksgiving and that no one burned down the house.
It's been a great weekend so far, lots of food, lots of friends, and lots of time spent at the beach - sunbathing, collecting shells and walking to burn a few pounds.
So what's new with you all?! What did I miss?
Well HELLO there beautiful!!! Wow keep that avatar up I just love Miami beach girls
It seems like you are having a great time Klara and I am so happy for the two of you. Nothing new around here except still looking for a job to replace my old one. I only had Thanksgiving off and worked today also.
I think tomorrow I will take Linda up to the beach and walk the surf. The poor girl starts back at her job (after 6 months off) on Moinday and she is not too happy about that. This is her last season there so she can deal with that and then she will be a full time beach bum. I told her I will be right by your side
Enjoy the rest of the weekend Klara and stay in touch. any cool pics you want to share please do.
I second the avatar, LOVE it! Thanksgiving was restful and enjoyable. Glad to hear that you had a good time.
Not much....except I did get a wedgie haha x
ha ha ha...yor havin' fun!...yor awake in Aussi Land...close to bedtime for me!
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Oh Blondie! I'm so happy you're back, girl! The forums were not the same without you!
Mark, what's the matter with your you?! So young and with back pains?!
Have a good night everyone! Much HP Love your way!
My back okay now Klara. It has been pouring all day and so dark now at 4:30 pm and ready to drive my 60 miles home
Talk to ya later. I see we have some newcomers here in the forum.
Welcome ALL
@Mark, there are two things you must do to get what you want. Visualize yourself at your dream job, coming back home stress-free and happy, the second thing is call everyone in your phone book, reconnect with old friends and old coworkers and ASK... you'll be surprised! Something tells me the new job will be coming from someone you already know and haven't seen for a while.
@Cara, did you get all your cupcakes done my friend? How about the christmas decorations, are they up? I might get me one of those 3 feet tall fake trees and place it in a little corner. It's a spacious apartment but it's still an apartment. I'm glad you enjoyed Thanksgiving!
Thanks for the compliments on the new avatar. My husband took that picture on Thanksgiving day as we were leaving our place. Here is one from today... we were out there all day.
I'm the one with the better looking feet!
Ooooooh nice pretty feet YOu are so lucky to be able to hit the beach in Mid November with you suits on. I'm jealous Klara. When Lin and come to visit we should be out and back home here at the beach no later than the begining of Spring
I know, Mark. There were people swimming although I can't really do the water right now. It's too chilly for my taste but some people don't mind. I've never gone to the beach elsewhere except in Spain, in mid August. The beach was full and people seemed to love it, but when I went in the water I couldn't take the temperature. It was cold!!! So you can imagine, Europeans love our South Florida beaches in the winter.
The one thing us Floridians love to do yearround! This is very close to our place.
So beautiful Klara. Anyone that doesn't love the water I think are crazy. I can deal with that 24/7 all year long. Enjoy your Sunday KLara Catch up with you a little later. heading ( 2THEBAY) right now myself
That is my baby Klara U like the plate
Where is everyone I have been laying on the bottom here for 33 hours and my back is killing me LOL LOL
Blog done for tonight and heading to beddy bye.

This has been perplexing me for a while - has something changed or have I just gone ga-ga?Being in a different time zone from most Hubbers, I rely on being able to click the "Your" button to catch up with who's posted on threads since I commented.Recently I've been missing comments...
