Whew! Working a a few Hubs the past several days as well as been busy here with other things. I do get particular about my hubs, sometimes too much and it causes more time to complete them.
Needed a "Break" so I came to the forums tonight.
Is there a Bartender out there? How about a nice drink to relax? lol
What do you do to get that needed "Break" before you finish your Hub?
a glass of wine sounds nice.
I usually go outside, take a walk, anything to give my mind something different to focus on. music is nice also.
I read once where our brain needs water at least once an hour when we're awake.
I need a break from the hub I plan to publish maybe tomorrow. Fresh Eyes to proof read it are better than when you just(think)you have finished.
I play in the forums. How's the tooth Michael?
I believe there was mention of a cooler full of beer in the tribe and it looks like there having a grand time relaxing over that way.
Thanks Lynne. The tooth is a lot better since the antibiotics have taken effect. Now to get through till Thursday to have it surgically removed. Big fun to look forward to there. lol Oh, I am taking the "Funny Gas" during the surgery.
Oh, I was hoping you were bringing it.
Hehe...not up to beer tonight. Got a little gastro troubles going on here thanks to McDonald's Big Mac earlier. Sorry TMI.
I don't do funny gas, they have to give me atavan to knock me loo, loo. Can't have novicaine with epi so I never fully get numb.
Well, dear I'm glad you are betters. I'm gonna go take something and see if I can sleep this off.
Hope you get to feeling better and sleep well!
lol, beer does get people's attention.
I am not much of a drinker my self unless it comes in a green bottle and is loaded with caffine. But I do like to be around when the country boys stat drinking.

The influx of Squidoo members (what's the correct term BTW?) has really made the forums seem lively again. I never look at the topic forums, and in recent months the HubPages section has been pretty quiet, so it's nice to see so much activity.

This seems far better then just over a year ago. The new layout helps but it just feels like writers here are getting along better and being helpful. This is opposed to last year when I saw competition become more important then being neighborly. I am happy......It sure makes for a better writing...

I have 122 fans?!! I am honored and touched. It's something I want to be grateful for today. Thank you guys for the support. I guess I didn't quite expect it since I don't have a lot of time to be on the net. But I've met really great hubbers here (smart, funny, warm,...
