There has been a request for me to further explain what it is I do at work...
Donovan's sister, Natalie (who we are staying with) and his brother-in-law, Brandon own a gardening/landscaping company called Four Seasons Gardens. My job is to call different golf/residential, estates, casinos, etc. to see if we can come give them a quote to do their gardens. When estates go "up for tender" it means that a bunch of companies go and get a tour of the estate and what needs to be done and then all give a quote for their services. Then they would sign a contract for a year or 3 years work. So even if an estate isn't up for tender right now, I am creating a calendar so we will know when to call to get on their "tender list" whether it be next year or in 2013!
Other than that I keep forgetting to mention that Donovan quit smoking! He hasn't smoked for 2 months now! Congrats to him!
We are going to Oumas' (grandmas) for lunch today. Tonight we are going to Central Grill which is like a hip bar place. Tomorrow we are going to dinner and a movie with Donovan's friend, Greg, and his girlfriend, Donna.
It is SO hot today--only 85F but feels hotter. I took a spin class yesterday and was the only one that showed up so it was so scary just me and the instructor. I still need to put up pictures...will do that as soon as I can. but here is one below just for a teaser...have a great weekend everyone...I miss you all soooo much! Will probably be home around January 10th and I think Donovan will be heading to Canada for 2-3 months but we will see...you know how the plans always change...
