Hi Nancy!  I waited to see if anyone else answered you but didn't see
anything.  I don't know what kind of hoya you have (heck, I don't even
know what kind of hoya *I* have!).  I also recently moved mine to a 
much brighter location (my west window) and am hoping that after 6
long years of waiting that this monster will finally bloom.  If you're having
trouble with the long tendrils hanging all over, you could hang the pot
in one of those brass hoops and train it around.  Mine is grown this way
and is so much more compact, and looks really pretty too (it's usually
the first plant visitors comment on).

Welcome to the list!  In another month or so when people start coming
in from their gardens the list should perk back up a bit.
