We were *visiting* from Atlanta and I was plotting and planning my permanent return to FL - LOL!
Here we are and I am so thankful to not have to deal with sub-freezing temps. In Atlanta, there was never much snow - only enough to be a nuisance.
The best of luck finding work, I know you want to move there permanently.
I have given the politicos up here an ultimatum, either I am part of the battle to save this doomed area, or, I am finding a red state to move to..
Texas comes to mind. : )
Gotta go, see ya later..
We've been here permanently since just before Hurricane Jeanne in September. A July lay-off in Atlanta was the catalyst to send us down.
Employment here has been elusive, but I am hoping and praying that the New Year will change that situation.
I can picture you being a Texan! :-)
Good morning Angelo and a Happy Happy New Year. I'll be there will bells, horns and clackers on.
(((((((Temple Owl))))))))
Good to *see* you.
Yes, there will be merry-making far and wide. I hope I will be awake to enjoy some of it - LOL!
Well, I'm up earlier than usual. Darn headcolds. :-)
Happy New Year, ((((dansangel))))!
BTW...I saw on another thread where Incindiary (SP?) is in Indonesia, was wondering if anyone has heard from her yet.

Yes, she's accounted for and reported to be fine. She's in Malaysia. She never made it to Indonesia.
Thank God. I have been worried about her after seeing that Indonesia was one of the hardest hit.
I have mini-updates on my profile page on her status.
She's got a big hug waiting for her when she returns to the states. I'm sure she'll have much to talk about.
Thank you (((((E_M_B)))))) for the reminder of just *who* it is that works 24/7 to keep us free.
A Happy and Healthy New Year to you and yours!

Good morning, all my friends. I'm back and I had a great Christmas with my sisters and family in New Orleans. Hope you all had a great and blessed Christmas and that all of your wishes for the new year will come true.
I got an email from a friend this morning that suggested that we all write on every envelope we mail the words, "In God We Trust". The money that we spend to buy stamps has those words on them, why shouldn't we put them on our envelopes we use.
Thanks again to all of you for your prayers for my sister. She is in good spirits, however still flat on her back for at least another 3 weeks. Hopefully then she will be able to start rehab. Plans are that she will be home by February.
Hello ((((((tuliptree76)))))))
Best wishes to you and yours for a healthy and happy New Year!
(((((Aqua))))))
I hope 2005 is the best ever for you and your hubby.
