First...I fixed the luggage link in my last post. I encourage you to look at it because, well it's just pretty bizarre that someone gets their kicks out of photographing someone's stuff. Enough said,now on to other things.
My plumeria finally bloomed. It sure did take a long time. Last year I had probably 6 or 8 blooms. This year it looks like only 2. Here is last year's picture:
What I didn't realize is that the flowers appear on what will be the new branches, and only the new branches bare flowers. So even though I had 2 new branches last year, only one new branch this year appeared and produced flowers. They are amazingly sweet smelling. And as you may remember me saying, these are the flowers that the Hawaiian's make their beautiful leis from.
Tonight I am packing and ironing. I have most of my things packed. If it wasn't for my toiletries, I think I could just do carry-on luggage. Shampoo, deodorant, conditioner, hand lotion, cologne – well you get the picture.
Today I caught up at work and moved ahead so that everything is in order. Being a one man (or woman) show can be challenging when you want to go away. If there are catalogs or advertisements to do, it is important to have all of that done or at least submitted. But if it has been submitted, you know you have to check your email to make sure everything went through. I'm making sure there is nothing I have to check on because I want to r-e-l-a-x and have fun with my old friends!
