    I am waiting for you Beth! It was a perfect day for the beach today. Very warm and sunny. We went to the mall instead because I was in major need of clothes. I hate shopping and I hate malls so I wait until I'm down to two shirts and one pair of jeans to go. And then... I don't really like anything so I end up buying another two shirts and another pair of jeans. Figures! smile
    On a different note... its our wedding anniversary today. Seven years and I am still falling in love with him. smile

      HAPPY 7TH ANNIVERSARY KLARA AND TO YOUR HUBBY TOO.!!

      Marriage gets and grows stronger as each day passes. Your bond to each other will continue to grow and fall in love more and more each day. Yes we all have our moments when we argue etc. but who doesn't right?  But when we kiss and make up that is true love.  Look at me Klara. Linda has put up with a lot of stuff and we are more happy and in love now 31 years in May, more than ever. I hope you and your husband had a wonderful day and many many more to come.smilesmilesmile

      Happy Anniversary!!

      A marriage 7 years in the making is quite an achievement, so hats off to you.

      I suspect that you 'hating' shopping and malls makes it so much easier for him, lol.  He's lucky to have you.  Here's to the both of you...

      I published the first hub in over one month and they said it was duplicate with the big warning. As I looked I saw nothing that looked like that hub and all of a sudden I realized the title was the same as one of my blogs. oppps. I don't want to be banned as they told me. I titled it different and now they have to check that out and see.

      Should of just wrote it on my blog. Linda and Stefani are spending the day together and they pick up the Wedding Gown today. Man that came in fast. Timeis getting near

    @ Mark -- awweeee, I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad day yesterday.  sad  I hope that today is going better for you.  As for making $$ here, take the stress off, and it will come.  It takes time for it to happen.  And, with all the changes from Google, it's taking even longer.  Some of us are extremely frustrated, but things will turn around.  smile  You have written wonderful, encouraging hubs.  Even if you are not seeing the $$s that you want, think of how many lives you are touching every single day.  You know what they say:  when you need something, it will appear on your path.  Just think of how many people need that word of encouragement, to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, to know that SOMEONE out there is succeeding in their recovery, to know that they are NOT alone.  That is worth more than any $$ amount.  XOXO  you are the best!!  XOXO

    @ sofs -- oh my!!  you are IT again!!!  lol  you have to Fed Ex the trophy to my place now.  lol

    @ klara -- that is why I am not seeing you around so much?!?  sad  miss your smile and lightness.  {{hugs}}

    off to prepare for my interview next week.  smile wish me luck!!!  smile

      Hi Beth:) As always you have touched my heart again. You are so right and i surely agree with you. Money is second and really means nothing although it would be nice to open up your earnings account and see some clicks, BUT what I am doing for the last 20+ months is enough to make me happy. To be able to touch and hopefully change someones life is my reward and that is just the way I planed it. that is my goal in life is to help those that have an addiction and are so afraid to get sober. I get so many emails from people that read my blog "The clean life" it is unbelievable how they pour their hearts out and ask (me) what should they do. I answer them the best I can with the experiences I have gone through.

      Secondly, I am starting real Estate school March 5th and I am so excited. I have always wanted to do this and I have wonderful friends that are very successful in Real Estate here at the shore. I have talked to them and the director of the school today. Linda and I are a bit nervous about me quitting my job of 21 years, BUT I am going for it Beth. I know I will be great at it and will be successful.

      I will keep you informed Beth
      All my love
      XOXOXOXOX

        So happy for you Mark.  Sometimes a little change is what we all need.  Work has been extremely hard for me all year but especially the last few weeks.  If I didn't need to pay my bills, I'd walk out and never look back.

        Good luck on the interview Beth, you'll be great.  And thanks for the bio reminder up there.  I almost forgot, yikes!  Work has been unusually insane lately.

        Morning Sofs!  Have a wonderful day!  smile

    Cara: what can I say?  Choke the little monsters and use lots of duct tape.  Hey, maybe bring a roll and set it on your desk?

      hey there Denise smile Thanks for good luck. Linda is scared to death and I am a bit concerned regarding Health Ins. My job pays $1495.00 Per month for lin and I and I have been seaching for quotes and they are about the same. THATS INSANE!!!!!!!

      Linda can get Insurance at her job and it is about $155 per week but when she gets laid off in the summer she then has to pay 630.00 per week through Cobra. Yes I mean per week for her and I. Then when she returns in the winter it goes back to 155 per week. I don't know what to do. WHAT I have to stay at my job that i hate all for insurance????? I really have to come up with some sort of plan and do it fast.

      Be careful hun driving to work and we must talk soon too Okay?

    @ Denise -- Thanks -- I could use all the positive energy I can get!  The position is contract with a possibility of permanent.  I know that if I get in, I'll be staying there for a long time.  smile  and that's what I need!! Back to shift on Friday??!?  I'll be thinking of you.  <3  Hope your shifts go smoothly for you.  TTY soon.

    @ Sofs -- ouch!  you poked me!  lol  but, it looks like you're it!!!  smile 

    @ Cara -- thank you for your words of encouragement.  smile  They mean a lot to me.  As for the little tykes -- just remember you get to go home at the end of the day and you don't have to bring them home with you!!  lol  Mind you, Denise's idea of duct tape is splendid.  What colours would you like?  I've seen a tiger striped roll here and there..... 

    @ Hawkstream -- thank you.  smile  Nice to meet you.  smile


    @ Mark -- first XOXOX  smile  I think that the fit is perfect for you -- you have the practical side of construction, the understanding of how things are put together, experience in customer service and you live in the area.  This is a powerful combination for a realtor.  smile  Keep me posted!  smile  The most fulfilling part of life is helping others, and knowing that you have touched their lives in a positive way.  Throughout my darkest days, that is what kept me going forward.  When I stumbled and didn't want to get back up (almost 3 years now), I went away to a retreat (family of origin).  The people were wonderful and what I saw and experienced reinforced how fortunate I was (am today).  smile  You are a beacon of light for many out there.  Not just in your country, but in many.  Imagine how many people you are affecting at a great distance that would, otherwise, not receive outside support.  As you know, support from outside your circle is just as important as that from inside.  smile  You're doing great!!!  xox  Give Linda a HUGE hug from me and a big thank you too for being supportive of you throughout all the good and tough times because she has been your beacon.  smile

    @ Steven -- where have you been??? hmm

    Happy Thursday y'all!!!  smile

I am truly blessed to have linda and she has stood by my side through thick and thin and I am also truly blessed to have friends like you Beth. It gets me so mad that you and all of us here that are close and share our lives together live so darn far apart.

      GOOD LUCK with your interview Beth., I know you will be great and will land that job. I will pray for you!!! You are a great person and you deserve the very best in life.

          I just typed to her on email and said make sure all the spelling is perfect.Good she can correct and then we can read and read. I am so proud of her Sophie. I did go to Google keyword as I have in the past and I will begin to work on those articles better since I am off this weekend. When I write an article in the title I put will say "how to stop drinking on you own" and usually that is in the first paragraph or second and then us "alcohol" "stop drinking alcohol" a couple of times through out the hub,/blog. If you do go to Google and just type Sobriety, or stop drinking alcohol, my hub/blogs are usually on the first pages and sometime very close to the top

        Good for you Cara!  What grade are you teaching?  Just remember to breathe.  My son's teacher had an extremely challenging class last year plus her room was designated as the before/after school program room.  She was stressed like I've never seen her before!!!  She finally was given a teachers assistant.  The assistant was also a yoga instructor.  They began teaching the children yoga for 20 minutes each day.  By the end of two weeks, the class was transformed.  They weren't screaming banshees and they stopped challenging her.  Just a thought to share.  smile

        Hope your week goes much better.  smile

        My interview isn't until the 10th... lots of time to sit and prepare.  I shopped and picked up a new suit -- even matched my shoes this time (I never do that!!)    lol
