The best part of summer is that it's warm outside and the days are longer. For the most part, the weather cooperates and it's beautiful outside. I love working from my dining room table and take a look outside and it's sunny and stuff. When one lives in Chi-Town where it's only summertime-hot for about 3 months out of 12 (and I'm being generous), you have to take the sunshine when you can.
Now, the bummer part of summer is that usually it's my busiest time to travel. This summer has made up for a travel-less spring as this week I was in Jessup, MD at our corporate headquarters for a sales meeting. I'm home for another 10 days and then I'm on a whirlwind tour that will basically last from July 26th - August 16th. I get to come home for 2 days to wash clothes and pack and then I head back out again. The destinations are cool, though. First Milwaukee for the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Midwest Regional Conference - where one of my dear friends and sorors is running for Regional Director. Please send positive thoughts and prayers her way (Octavia) that she is able to achieve her goal as Octavia will make a fabulous Regional Director.
After Milwaukee, I head to Montreal for an industry trade show. I'm totally looking forward to that as I've never been to Montreal. I'm working on getting my digital camera in working order again so that I can take great photos and you guys get to see them sooner than later. I'm still waiting for my pics to be developed from vacation in Asheville, NC and the family reunion. Hopefully soon that will happen....
After Montreal, I get to come home and wash clothes and then head to San Francisco for work. We're doing the American Bar Association convention in Moscone and I get to go out and support the operations team as we go do that so that's pretty exciting. Should be a lot of work but fun, as well.
It's a challenge to keep all the balls juggling in synch but we seem to be doing it with minimal dropped balls. We'll see what happens from here.
OH - and my parents just finished a wonderful Caribbean cruise so I can't wait to see their pics and hear about their relaxation adventures. Dad was determined to relax and enjoy himself and so was Mom. From what they have texted me during their trip, they achieved their goals. I'm just trying to be like them when I grow up.
OK - hopefully the next post will have some pics. Drop a note of what you're up to when time allows.
