We are headed to El Paso. We will be seeing Carlsbad Caverns, the El Paso mission trail, and Las Cruces NM. Possibly White Sands park.
We have family ties to both places, so old houses and graves to see.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

Cindy, I'm sorry for the loss to you and the other Bronzers.

I am a model of selflessness, y'all.
I have given up my India trip in order to send one of the people on my team to Singapore instead. (Politics means we can't do both, since people are sensitive about the HQ-based people getting more opportunities.) This is especially true since I've been trying to get sent to Singapore for years and I could have taken the slot with no eyebrows raised.
My boss was appreciative though:
You pulled a great leader move though ;-)
I wasn't testing I swear but I'm impressed ;-)
So there's that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jewels in your crown, brenda!

Way to go brenda and Noise!

I've been at work for an hour and only just now got my lunch into the fridge. Looks like maintaining focus will be an issue today.

How long has it been since you've been to Cruces, msbelle?
Parts of my sidewalk are almost dry. My car should be snow and ice free shortly, thanks only to the sun. However, one of the sidewalks on the way to the Y is probably ice half a foot thick, and smooth, for most of it. It's where water runs off the raised field, so pretty impossible to prevent, but I will be walking cross the field no matter how deep the snow for the foreseeable future.
Loki is fighting my laptop for my lap. Which, fine, but his purring made a debut in the webex meeting this morning.

Was there last maybe 2000, maybe 1998.

Brenda, that's very good of you--and even better that someone RECOGNIZED it's good of you and didn't just take it as a given!
