Hee, I do know that, I meant in the last year....the year before (when we went to Vegas) the honeycrisps were to die for. Ahh, gotcha! I completely misunderstood. It always amazes me (being a BC girl originally) when people don't seem to understand that fruit is seasonal....other than from Cali, all fruit is not available all year round! Grab it while it's in season! I guess it comes from "stuff" (I won't call it fruit, cuz out of season IMO it's yucky junk) being in the grocery stores all the time, so people just don't always realize that that pear on the grocery shelf in November has been in someone's cold storage for almost 6 months....and therefore what it might taste like. Or....could be I'm the only one who cares! That's one of the things I LOVE about Ontario...the availability of fresh fruit...I missed it SO bad on the prairies where nothing grows except wheat! OK....back to topic Thanks for the K-na message, gmb! I'm thrilled that's being disseminated...I know she would have loved that she is still helping.

I GOT MY JOB!!!! The 4th interview one!! The very first one I sent a resume to....it just took this long, can you believe it?? I'm familiar with the company from being a customer....and I've liked the sounds of things all the way along. This is the one I really wanted...although I did receive another offer yesterday as well...which I regretfully (to them) and with my fingers crossed behind my back, turned down. Thank goodness! Thanks SO much to everyone for all the encouragement! Keep sending those resumes as they happen! :thbighug-1: ETA: I am SOOOOO going to enjoy this weekend!

OOh! Thank you! We're close enough to the growing area that I hope we see some of those. They wouldn't have been available from about Sept 15th last year to that date this year...apples are a fall fruit. Should be soon though, I'm betting they'll be later this year because of the lack of warm weather.

We could be buried together. It would be cheaper that way. Hee...because we always want what we ain't got? I only gave up on "curls" about 6 years ago.

Added!

Eeeee! My favourite!! LOOK at those eyes! ....little bitta scruff....great hair! I LOVE the spiky 'do that way...just looking "mussed". Yum. Lotus...I'm withya! Not a fan of the muscle boys...my experience has been that they're a little too focused on the six pack and not enough focused on anything else but...but perhaps Reed is an exception, cuz I can't see boyfriend liking that. ETA: I'd bet that's real close to his natural colour, too....

Here's a podcast (first link) and a short article on resumes (second link) that I just got in my mail this morning! Talk about timely LOL! I haven't listened to the podcast yet, but it sounds good LOL! Podcast here Article here These are "Canadian content" but I think should still work for you.

What an adorable pic!! Thanks!!

Hey, if it gets us pictures like that........looks fuschia to me!! Got any more pictures to prove otherwise?

Cool! will send you a note....

Couchie :thbighug-1: thanks!! What a nice thing to say! Resumes have definitely changed over the last few years...so far I'm having the most success with a skills-based resume format. What a completely ridiculous, untrue and unhelpful statement to make at a job workshop! THAT's the kind of expert you need!...or not! Well, I'm now headed for a 4th interview Wednesday for the job I completed a 3rd interview for... . Good news is, they've bumped me up a job level, so the position I'm 4th interviewing for is a supervisory one with more money and more hours. With a guarantee of at least the lesser position if this one doesn't work out. I've been made an offer by one company, but am trying to hold off a bit until the above falls one way or the other. If I lose it, I lose it. I've learned NOT to jump at the first opportunity. The fulltime position did not work out; honestly, I think it was a teaser for a placement company, in retrospect. Would it be of any interest for some of those looking, to have a little roundtable on resumes? I do have a fair bit of hiring/employment background, and would be glad to have a look at your resume and provide some feedback, if you would find that helpful. And I'd love to let someone have a look at mine and provide the same. If you'd like to do this, PM me or post here, and we'll exchange

You are already on the list. I've amended the number.

Apparently, Clay has changed the picture on his FB profile....... brace yourself, merrieeee!! Yep.....it's this one!!

*gah*

Yep....he has the most wonderful, run-your-hands-through-able hair! That's why I love it natural like this, rather than spiked-up with product. kf

Because he normally carries his laptop bag on that side. Or a small child rests his head there.

I'm considering cutting a leg off. If anyone has any other ideas that actually work, let me know!

Some of the other pics from "Bud's" Flickr.......

I believe that's the way they "load and unload" VIPs so they don't always have to trek through the terminal. Down the flyway stairs to the tarmac....to a waiting vehicle. Doesn't mean it wasn't a private plane...but I don't think they'd load or fly a private plane that close to the main terminal. ETA: if you look at some of "Bud's" other pictures, looks like he might be a limo driver. Tons of pics with celebrities of every type. Really interesting, and worth a look.

Clay is like a box of chocolates? (with a pickle on the side) Thread title???? Second that!! Good one canfly!! Would that be PTTL or PTTR? LOVE!! the new picture! He looks wonderful in his (likely) natural hair colour and big grin! Two things made me LOL.....if you look at the large size you can see the collar on his polo is all balled up from washing (spit-up out?), which just completely cracks me up. I think he's had that shirt since he was about 17. I know it well. Also....see the guy in behind them, the airport wing-walker? (over Clay's right shoulder) In the larger pic, you can see he's totally doing the WTF?? Gotta run to Dr. appointment, but thanks so much for bringing that over bottlecap!!

Gaaaahhh!! What a choice! Went with #1 just because.....just because.....just bec.....oh WTH, Because!!

Done!

Couldn't have said it better....gorgeous!!

You look very nice!!

Already had you both on the list, so we're good....see you there!!
