Five-day work week

So, it's Friday, and we're all about to embark on another long weekend. You know, this will be the first week I've been in the office five days since mid-December, and is the last one until early-February. And don't forget that I've got two weeks of less-than-five workdays in that month, too. I dig having the short workweek. It should be noted that my production hasn't dropped either, for all you doubters out there.
Here's Mom's newest floral arrangement. Her classes have begun again, so check back here every Friday for the weekly bit of beauty arranged so elegantly by my mommy.
The Casino Afternoon corporate holiday party was a success yesterday, and we had a pretty good time. Minus the fact that none of us won the door prizes, there was a 15-minute mind-numbing presentation given by someone that we all wanted to kick off stage, and that we lost a good portion of our fictional money pretty early; and add that the food was pretty good, we scored extra drink tickets, and that conversation did, once again, sway towards the "who at work would you sleep with" realm; and we are left with a nice afternoon away from desks, phones and p.r. people. Just so you know, I bet $200 on red (for the car) 33 (for next week's birthday), and lost it all. This year is gonna be awesome!

Brava Mom! Beautiful arrangement..you know I bought a book on that once (expecting to have so many flowers sitting around my house that I would need to learn to arrange said flowers). Alas - over abundance of flowers never arrived...and neither did my talent for arranging them.

never give up on the flowers....the classes have been going on for MANY years now and are still a learning experience...I truly believe the height of luxury would be the home with a continual supply of fresh flowers throughout!
