Yes, Lips...we did find a house in Florida and have an offer in...hoping they accept it. I never managed to sell my house here, but I do have a renter for it that can't wait to move in and is flexible on their move-in date...so that will work. It's not my first choice, but at least it will cover its own costs and we can wait for a better market. I'm anxious to get down there...being apart is tough.

In the short term I'm a happy girl...I

on Friday...so I'll get some

from my baby.

Oh that's good that you found a house in Florida. That's what I'm going to do rent then move. How are the prices in Florida compared to the NY area cheaper?? I hope they accept your offer and you can move. I don't want to live in this area anymore too congested and to cold in the winter. I want an area that is warm all year round. Yes I'm sure you are anxious go get down there already. I just got out of my PJ's had to wash them, doing laundry and just relaxing. Need more coffee probably going to go to DD for a latte with whipped cream. Anyway, good luck to you you are a nice person and deserve the best!!

Good Afternoon Lipstix,

Where I live, my best friend and I pay $900 a month for a four bedroom, 2.5 bath house. It is gorgeous here. Every day that I go power walking with Elijah, her son, we see wild bunnies and plenty of other animals. The East Coast of Florida is nice and most of it is snowbird central, but very quiet.

Have fun today!

Florida is starting to sound even nicer to me, so that is the eastern part of Florida Zimmy?? I would have to rent my home here in NJ so I could move down there but I think I could get used to that. Do they have any kind of gay community of any sort??

lipstixgal · 06-20-2010, 05:50 PM

Well Kitchen dwellers have a big day tomorrow big test and mock interview with suit and everything so it a good night for me. Not to bed but to watch some mindless TV and relax see ya tomorrow when I can. Sleep tight!!

Good evening kitchen dwellers

My mouth is craving old fashioned fried chicken, mashed potatoes, chicken/cream gravy, steamed asparagus and a nice green salad....mmmmm....

Dessert has got to be hot fudge cake, with some vanilla bean ice cream for those that like the hot/cold thing as well.

counting the hours baby

Good Evening Jo,

That food sounds amazing. I am liking the old fashioned fried chicken thing. nods. I made homemade spaghetti sauce and had some thin pasta with it. It was tasty indeed.

Yeah.. for the flying out being almost here. This Friday, yes? We should all be near the ones we love.

As Always,
Jake

Good Evening Kitchen Patrons,

I hope everyone had a peaceful end to their weekend and that this week brings great productivity and happiness.

I spent the day "deep" cleaning My place. Mopping floors and the works. Laundry is done. Then I decided to get My paint supplies out and see if it would come back to Me. I had some pretty profound revelations in regards to this. It seems that it did not come back and easily as I thought it might. However, I am also not the same person I was the last time I picked up a brush. I will keep at it this week. If anything it is a great source of meditation...which is why I set about learning it in the first place.

This past week seems to be a week of realizations for Me. All of them good. smiles.

Here is some tea and coffee for those that want and/or need it.

Zimmeh · 06-20-2010, 07:21 PM

I live on the East Coast of Florida. I am about 64 miles from Jacksonville and I was born in Daytona Beach. If you are looking for the Gay community here, Orlando is the closest city and they hold their Pride events in October. I am making plans with my ex roommate and a bunch of his friends to attend.

Good luck on your test tomorrow and good night,

Zimmy

Good morning kitchen dwellers

Thanks for getting the music going again Freyja...it does help me dance around while I cook. You made me giggle with the 8-tracks...I had a collection of those as well...and my first car had an 8-track player...oh yea...I was stylin' in that 61 VW Bug

Countdown is at 82 hours to

and

in the airport.....

Breakfast is on

eggs cooked to order, sirloin steaks (cuz I do love some steak and eggs), crispy hashbrowns, homemade biscuits...and you have your choice of country style sausage gravy or Scoote's favorite chocolate gravy (what the heck, we're celebrating!). For fruit we've got some fresh watermelon all sliced and ready, and some sweet juicy red seedless grapes as well. Dig in!

Hope you all have a lovely day today....I'm off to refill my coffee cup, check some threads, answer a few work emails (I love, love, love working from home) and I'll be back.

lipstixgal · 06-22-2010, 07:45 AM

Well I see someone has been up early me too but to tired to make any breakfast. Seems like the date is postponed until she gets back from a business trip in St. Louis Missouri. Oh well such is life. I will just go on with my internship as planned and the rest of my life. If its not meant to be so be it. But it would have been nice to have at least one date before she left. Hell I don't even know if I like her. anyway, just three more days and school is over with Whoo hoo. NYC Pride is this weekend and I'm gonna try to get a group of people together after the parade!! Wish me luck see you guys later have a 10:10 class.
