No Complaints




I'm in Arizona.  We finished a short meeting here today in Phoenix. I'm getting a little mini-me time here before meeting the family in Idaho tomorrow.  I'm at a beautiful resort as you can see.  It was 106 today, so that kind of limited my outdoor time, but as the sun went down,  I went and had dinner and a drink by the pool and read a book. Then I hopped in and floated around a bit.  It is nice to have some quiet time, but I miss my family. I hear they are missing me too, so tomorrow night will be a happy reunion.


God Bless Peter. He is driving the family in our rockin' minivan to Houston tomorrow to catch a plane. The price out of Houston made it much more affordable for four flying to Idaho. Plus, he has a three hour layover in Las Vegas with three kids. What a guy!

The kids would love this place. Look at the slide at the pool, and they were serving s'mores tonight.

The olympics have been so fun to watch. Swimming and gymnastics. The USA is kickin' it! I read that the Olympics are one of the last things on TV that bring families together. I believe it. The kids have really enjoyed it too. Conleigh & Campbell have turned the family room into a gymnastics mat.

Big news to close our meeting tonight. Our regional manager who hired me almost 16 years ago is retiring. I am in shock as was everyone else. He is such a good man and has watched out for so many of us for a long time. He is the person who made it possible for me to work part time.  Come December, he will be done checking sales numbers and will be off enjoying other things. I will miss him a lot!
