Mary Beth - A Fellow Gardener

I was working on my computer for an upcoming training and going through pictures of my garden. Mary Beth was beside me and happened to commment on how pretty my garden was. She had relaocated from the east coast to the desert of the southwest and missed all the beautiful flowers we have back east.

One plant which we have and never knew what it was she told me was a lepedeza - she obviously know her stuff.

Here's to happy plants!

My Scabble Buddies

This flight from Albuquerque to Atlanta has a bunch of folks heading to Italy for their sales reward trip. I'm fortunate to be sitting next to Don and Kathy. As part of their reward for making quota they also got Kindles. Kathy and Don included me in on the game of scrabble. It sure helped to pass the time. (although if you guess a wrong word it gives you a second chance - which seems like cheating) - Did you know Siderite was a word? Great job Kathy!!

I can tell they're all going to have a fun time in Italy! I sure hope to get there someday!

Fun in The Sun!

One of the coldest winters we've had in awhile - and my lucky seatmate is heading to San Juan for some warmth and sun with some friends. It's that early morning flight - but Jill has been up all night tending bar - then cam straight to the airport. While she went to school at RIT for graphic design - she found out - that much of the work in that field limits her creativity and she found herself being told what to do - and not able to use her creative side as much. So she's looking for another passion - Yoga and hopes to open up her own studio once she gets her license.

As for San Juan - we landed late - she had like 10 minutes to get to her connecting flight. Hope she made it!
