Got it figured out!

Well, David is back! Yippe!

We have finally tackled the task tonight of figuring out our vacation plan and the excursions we are going to take. Here is the list.

Montego Bay: Going down to Dunn's River to swim with the dolphins. We are also going to learn how to feed them and even train them. This tour is like 7 or 8 hours all together.

Grand Cayman: Golfing at the only Golf Course on the island... 18 holes baby!

Cozumel: Mayan Ruines.

Yippe! I always like to know what we want to do before we get on the boat. Now we will be able to sign up for these as soon as we get into our room. Somewhere in there I will try to squeeze in parasailaing. I've been dying to do that.

That's all folks,

Good Night

Unicorns!


OK Girls! Your life long obsessions with unicorns have come true. There really are unicorns? Who woulda thunk? Thank You Laura for opening up our eyes about unicorns. :)

here is a link. A "unicorn" has been found in Italy. Sharla, my dear, I guess that was not a unicorn afterall in Glen Rose, was it? We were tricked! :(

The new week is definately Welcomed!

Whew! Last week has been insane. Between being gone two days out of town, to catching up at work to having car trouble! Friday night, Derek and I finally decided to relax and get some dinner but NO! I had car trouble...minor...but nonetheless car trouble. My trunk would not close! Yes, it opened but the latch of the trunk was getting caught on something so it would not close. Thanks to Mark and Monica, they pretty much got me out of that pickle.
BTW, the car is fixed now and all is well.

David is still gone and I am starting to really miss him, I am noticing myself getting a bit irritated and grouchy because he is not here.

Fathers day came and gone. Had a nice time! Hope everyone did also!

Well, better get back to work...It is a monday!

Packing Tips

Summer is here and I know everyone is taking vacations here and there. Even if you are not vacationing, many of us have occasional business travel. With American Airlines' new baggage rules, I found this article from WFAA and thought it was usuful. It gives a few tips on how to pack efficiently and not have to pay AA for that 2nd bag.

WFAA.com June 10th

First make a list of everything you need for your trip and then edit that list down the bare minimum. Now you’re ready to travel light.

Start by rolling up your shirts into a tube shape to cut down on the space they’ll take up.

Lay your nice shirts down first, so they wrinkle the least, and fold the arms into the middle. Next, do the same with T-shirts, and then roll them into a cylinder. You can do the same with pants.

Shoes are a bag killer. Wear one pair and pack one more pair, no more. Sorry ladies.

As for toiletries, dump the bulky dop kit. Bring only the essentials and put them in a plastic bag so they don’t leak.

There are companies that will come to your house and ship your bag to your destination.

Unfortunately, one-way service starts at around $90. You can do yourself for less, but it's not nearly as convenient.

Congratulations!


A huge congrats goes out to my parents, they have purchased a brand new 2009 Mazda 6 (silver color).
This is my mom's new car and she deserves it (plus it is overdue). So, feel free to congratulate my mom on her blog page. I am thrilled for her....Big Pimpin'! :)

Howdy to all from sunny, Orange County, California.

We finished working around 7pm and we are on our way to eat sushi at a local hot spot. anyway, just thought I would give you all a quick shout-out and let you know that all is well!

Kung Fu Panda Movie Review



David and I had a date today! One of the last ones for the next weeks since he is off to the border. We went to see Kung Fu Panda which I highly recommend. It is an animated movie for all ages. It has alot of funny moments and the graphics are fantabulous! So, if you have an 1 1/2 (which if your life is anything like mine, you probably don't) then go check it out! I highly recommend it! Can't wait until it comes out on HD DVD!

Busy Week


(This is an old picture, but I wanted to share this with people....I present to you, The Foster Clan)



This week started off fast. New month..new quota...new projects...
Need I say more?

Most of the account managers are out this week on vacation or business travel so I've been diligent in covering everybody and everybody's accounts. All in all, it's going well.

Dave is working nights right now. Somehow he got suckered into working the weight station....Not sure how he ended up the guy with the short straw but he did. He is on the 11pm to 7am shift so I don't get to see him when I leave for work.

We did sell our old microwave and the electric stove to a couple who has a bunch of rental properties so that's a done deal. Our 2 month old dishwasher is making a new home at my mom's (hopefully soon) and the fridge is also going to my mom's. Surprisingly, we got a lot for it. Almost like selling it new....these appliances are almost 6 years old...I guess good' ol' whirlpool holds up well. I guess it's like reselling a BMW. :)

I head out to Cypress, CA on Monday to do some work there. With this job, there is a good bit of travel involved (which I am loving). Not to mention all the American Airlines miles I am racking in. At the rate I am going, I may have a couple of airline tickets supplied by the time we head to Alaska.

I had a very good work out at the gym today. For those of you who don't know. I've been going to the gym Mon-Fri since January. We have a state of the art gym at work which I fully utilize. I skip lunch and go to the gym. Works out wonderful. I ran 3.4 miles today in 30 min...Not bad...But I was stinky and tired after that work out. I think I am ready for the Susan G. Komen 5K.

Well, I think that's all the update I have
