Wow, I never would have considered that. My mother was a neat freak, and I remember hanging up sheets, spreading my stuffed animals about, and enjoying a bit of disarray in my room.

We had one room we couldn't go in so as to disrupt the lines vacuumed in the floor.

How could a mother be like that??? She probably was brought up that way and found it hard to change. Maybe in her later years she relaxed somewhat.

Yeah mk, take it easy on your mom. Jeez. Most people vacuum lines in their carpet and then never walk on it ;-)

I'm sure she's a lovely woman.

newgreen, I am a lovely woman, and I'm sure mk would agree. I was a little nutsy then about things. Now I have really relaxed! dpk

I've no doubt!! I'm actually a friend of Marks and I've heard wonderful things about you ;-) I was just teasing. I hope to meet you someday. Congrats on the bundle of joy that is about to come!!

newgreen, I had a sneaky feeling this came from a friend of Mark's or someone else I know that is on Hubski. You won't tell me your name? That's as bad as my son not letting me know the baby's name! dpk

Ha. They named the baby after me: Steve Clausnitzer Katakowski ;-)

We've not met yet, but someday soon. I'm really excited for all of you guys. You have likely met my wife Joanna. We have a 1 year old girl and it's the greatest thing ever. I'm actually Marks partner on Hubski.

I'm sure you're proud, he's a hell of a guy.

the newgreen, Steva would sound better for a girl. Yes,I met your pretty wife. At the time I encouraged Mark to get serious with her. It wasn't in the cards, but all has turned out great for all of us! See you soon, dpk
