Good morning, everyone! We moved in to a new house end of Feb.; I finally got my act together and back to ms-ing. Vickie, you live in the perfect area between Brandon and Tampa. I don't do Tampa shops at all. Jennifer, isn't Bartow close to Lakeland? I've seen lots in Lakeland (too far for me), especially the supermarket ones. I got my silver certification.

Hi, I'm new here. I live in Zephyrhills, and I have been ms for about a year. I really like this site and the forums! It makes looking for shops so much easier, and all the sweepstakes, freebies, etc., are great! Just like on an answering machine, I don't do well with "leaving a message" on a discussion board. I always sound like such a dope.
Have a great week everyone! |

Hi Dawn, What area do you ms? Is Lutz, Mulberry and New Port Richey close to you? I don't know all the little towns around FL yet. Connie

| I usually shop in Zephyrhills, Tampa, Land o Lakes, Lutz, Brandon, and the north part of Lakeland. I sometimes shop Kissimmee because we go over there a lot. I was working full time, and I had to turn down quite a few shops because they needed to be done during the day. Now, I'm working for myself, so I have lots more time to shop! Oh, and I do put New Jersey on my applications; I have family up there, so I'm up there at least once a year. |

Hello from Williston. I'm a newbie, working on MS for only a month. I started out eating alot of burgers!! Looking back on this topic, I see there are alot of us from the Ocala area. Originally from Chardon, Ohio (lake effect snow), I've been here for 4 years. I'm hoping to see more of Vacationland working MS. Thanks to all of you who post, this is my first. Gotta start somewhere. |

Yes Connie MSing is fun. Like I said, I'm learning. The beach was better for me a few years ago when I was younger. Where are you from originally? Has Florida always been your home? I'm originally from NY, many years ago. |

I moved to Valrico 10 years ago, from Oregon. Lots of ex-New Yorkers in FL, but not so many Oregonians. I love it here; wish I was closer to water, but doubt I can afford the insurance.  |

Hi Connie.
I've never been to Oregon. Must be a nice place. I'm originally from NY but have been in Fl. over 20 years. First on the east coast in Miami Beach and now on the west coast. As far as insurance goes, that's why I rent and not own. It can get pricey.  |

Hi, I'm Kathleen and I live in Clearwater. I've been MSing for about three months now, and I love it. My husband loves that I am getting paid to do the one thing I love the most!
Anyway, is anyone planning to go to the Gold seminar in Tampa in April? I am silver certified and am thinking of registering, but I really don't know what it is about or if it is worth the $100. Can anyone shed some light on it? |

Hi Kathleen,
I've also been MSing for only four months. Not certified at all. I won't be going to the Tampa seminar in April. I only do about two shops a week on average. Good luck with your MSing.

| Hi folks, I live in Lake Mary (12 miles ne of Orlando) and am very anxious to do some dining shops in Seminole County. Haven't done any in a while. Can anyone help me? I'd like a Smokey Bones, Carabas, or any other restaurant. Thanks much. |

I'm in Seffner, MSing from Lakeland to St Pete. Is anyone planning to go to the Gold Workshop in April? It would be great for a group of us to meet for coffee or lunch once a month!  |
