I also have a home in Hawai'i where I was working when I retired. I've enjoyed everywhere I lived ( even Chicago) but there are trade offs. Opera, ballet, theatre for lush vegetation, trade winds, and year-round summer. I was a university professor and, for the last 20 years, an administrator. What about you?

Grew up in Montana and could not wait to get the heck out of here after graduating from high school. I have lived in Ohio, california, Kansas and six years in Alaska. Once my husband and I had 2 daughters while living in Alaska, we moved home to Montana to be closer to family and couldn't be happier with our choice. I am a nurse practitioner. My primary job is as the director of nurses in a small hospital but I frequently moonlight for extra cash as a nurse practitioner in small emergency rooms throughout northeast Montana where I am the sole medical provider for 63 hour shifts. Keeps things interesting. I have been to Hawaii twice but only to the island of Kauai which I loved.

I should be outside in this great weather, 60s no humidity! Oh well. To those that aren't hungry, you aren't alone. i had to force myself to eat dinner, probably because I at my lunch protein packet so late, I just get so full after veggies at lunch I like to space it all out instead of eat it at once.
So my USF Bulls can't seem to get ahead in their conference. Another devastating loss this week. Ready for this Bucs Saints game tomorrow. I hope it's a good one, just glad it's on TV!!!! How are your teams doing?? I'm still up watching this Bama/LSU OT... Who's gonna be #1 ?

Thanks to globalization, regardless of weather, I did exactly the same thing in Germany last night as I would have in Hawai'i -- five hours and 20 minutes (plus intermissions) of Siegfried from the Met, and would have loved to have come home to watch the Alabama/LSU game but I guess Wagner is enough culture (popular or otherwise) for one day. It's true, though, northern Germany generally has milder winters than one would expect due to the Atlantic trade winds.
And Determined, I'm still gasping over 63 hour shifts; and the amount you must travel in, here it is again, less than desirable weather.

Good morning all! I should be enjoying an extra hour of sleep since we went off daylight savings time, but my body says get up!! The wind is howling outside right now with a couple inches of snow. I need to go to school to work today and get ready for parent teacher conferences. WE teach the kids during the day and then have their parents come after school for 3 hours Tues. and Wed. for conferences. Makes for a LONG day, but then we get Friday off, 11-11-11!
Have a great day.

Good morning! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I'm sick Can hardly swallow. Throat is so sore, swollen tonsils with pustules. I've gargled with warm salt water this morning and listerine last night. Saw a recipe online for cayenne pepper and warm water gargle. yuck, sounds so awful, but probably will be trying that too. I need to go scope out the medicines at the pharmacy, but don't feel like getting out at all. Miserable!
Being sick didn't keep me from coaching soccer yesterday morning, watching my oldest play 2 games after, or watching the LSU game. I tried to sleep in today, but my achy throat kept me up most of the night. May try to catch a nap at some point today.

Hey, I had my first WI on Friday and I was down 7 lbs. I'm pretty amped
Also, just wanted to share a personal victory. I was out at bars last night, and managed to continually inhale the smells of my favorite bar foods, while enjoying a house salad with olive oil. I'm thinking someone's will power dust found me in Scottsdale
