The "Graff" side of the extended family doesn't know each other very well so Jeannette thought it would be a good idea for everyone to be on Facebook. That way, the cousins could all read about what is going on in each other's lives. So, last night I joined the Facebook crowd. Now I have a blog site, an online journal, and Facebook. As I mentioned in a previous blog, I just can't keep up with it all. So then I got the brilliant idea of directing everyone to one site...this one.

So, 'hi' to all the nieces and nephews on Jim's side of the family. Mine too, if they happed to add me as a 'friend' on Facebook. I will try to keep things somewhat up-to-date on this site, but no promises. I am on a computer all day at work. I'm not so sure I want to spend any more time on it when I get home. But, for what it is worth today, we are all fine and happy.

Jim gave a big presentation in California today and he said it didn't go as well as he would have liked. I'm sure it went better than he thinks; he just didn't have a lot of problems to talk about because his new market is doing so well.

I am in the middle of planning our biggest tradeshow of the year which is coming up the day after Thanksgiving. I will be in Chicago the end of November - first of December. So, the Christmas tree is going up before Thanksgiving this year, even though I am opposed to people doing that normally.

And tomorrow is Halloween. I am in charge of the company party / luncheon / costume contest. It should be pretty fun. I'm going as a cross between Peg from Married With Children and Flow from the old Alice sitcom. (Basically a Bimbo with really bad taste in clothes!) I'll post a picture tomorrow IF I get around to posting anything tomorrow.

And... one more thing. Aaron and Kelly are coming to stay for the weekend! Hooray! I love it! I can't wait to see them.
