I have signed up for the 2014 A-Z Challenge. I use it to jumpstart my blogging juices for the rest of the year. I even have the topics picked: Blues, Interviews, Pupus, and Reviews. Should be fun, and I look forward to reading all about you living your dream in Guatemala!Gail M Baugniet - Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11543343067963247963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852800943772489474.post-20997218681255520812014-02-07T16:31:35.273-08:002014-02-07T16:31:35.273-08:00Thanks so much for suggesting it!

Two days before it started my job picked up some extra work and we stayed swamped through April. I am trying not to let that bother me this year, but it has.

I LOVE your Header pic... So beautiful...HI, Karen,<br /><br />I LOVE your Header pic... So beautiful. I hope Guatemala is a living dream for you! At least you are out of the COLD!!!! <br /><br />This winter is kicking me to the ground. I can't take much more of these minus wind chills and knee deep snow. I am so longing to escape to the south!<br /><br />Today I took the first step in preparing my condo for sale. I hope to put it on the market within the next few weeks. Once sold, I will break the sound barrier for speed moving south! LOL.<br /><br />As for the A-Z, every year I say, well I just have the time...every April first I am posting. LOL. The same goes for this year. <br /><br />I guess it all depends where I'm at ... if I'm moving HOPEFULLY, I will pass but if I am still locked away in Siberia. Perhaps. How's that for a definite maybe. LOL.<br /><br />ALL the best! I am really thrilled you are living your dream!Michael Di Gesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17047267262428143113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852800943772489474.post-44037231709658922312014-01-27T09:19:32.927-08:002014-01-27T09:19:32.927-08:00April is so exciting.
