We had a holiday cookie celebration. It was a lot of fun. We made gingerbread cookies, sugar cookies, brownies, rice krispie treats and Mojitos.

Above is our "Holly" line of cookies... inspired by too many mojitos.

Yes... I'm posting on a work night. How can this be? Well we submitted the final proposals, budget and justifications today. We will find out is we get the account in about a month. I'm very excited. Of course it did not go off with out a hitch. The CEO did not give me a deadline time, my partner on the project misplaced the signatures (read; I have the signatures) and I was a calm as can be. If this account was lost it would be on them. CEO stated he had a 2:30 meeting. It was 2:00 and asked that I gather the needed materials to show the chairwoman of the board. I gathered all the above mentioned paperwork and sent him on his way. I found out his 2:30 was to due time. Now why did he not mention that to me.

Earlier in the day he stated that he and Luap worked on the final portions Friday. I stated that I know because Laup and I finished up what we could and I even took home the numbers this weekend. He was a little embarrassed. He tried to play it as if they worked so hard on it. Whatever.

I just got back from a walk/jog with Samba, my rottie. It felt good just to be outside. Work has been fast, packed and so ever changing. Changes for the positive... a few for the negative. My philosophy is is that all those who have done for me I will reward them in the end.


We are trying to earn this one account that will benefit everyone, however there are only two dedicated players. The sad thing is that the CEO is not one of them. He has no clue... or he does and if it all falls through... it's not on him.


*Deep Breath*

I feel better.



Last night was date night with my husband. We went to a hole in the wall place that we have been eyeing for a while. Then we went to this large outdoor swap meet. It was 8:00 pm and the place was packed. We had a great time.
