i'm back in ny

My trip to Texas was great fun. I have to tell you it would be hard to stay thin in that state. Very rich and homey food. I felt like asking during the week "could i have a side of food with my butter?" Needless to say, it tasted good!

At the Mary Kay convention we heard so many inspirational stories of success. One couldn't leave the place without feeling admiration for some of these women. What was interesting was it wasn't the blonde bombshells that were the most successful, it was the strong-willed, determined women with a clear goal and the energy to attain their goals. It is great to see someone achieve their goals.

Now, I know I said I would take pictures, but of course I didn't. Jeremy has it all on film. Maybe he can make some stills from the film. I didn't inherit Grandma's picture taking--(something I have to work on).

As I said, on my way to Texas we stopped in Cleveland and saw my Mom and Sam. Both were in great spirits. Mom looks really good.

Anna when you come out East, you should stop and visit me in NY; I don't think it is too far. Love to see you.

Nai -
thought of you and Jeremy the other day as I walked with a good friend who is a Mary Kay beauty consultant....she had been in Dallas and came home inspired as well....said the same thing you said....not just the perfect Barbie, wearer of the perfect makeup wins the prize for Mary Kay. She loves it and has been trying (subtly) to lure me in. I just don't have a passion for make up and my desire for more money just can't get over the make up hump, but I think the company is pretty darn impressive.

Glad you had a good time...the way you ate in Dallas is how most of us mortals live:) Loved our recent visit, Nai...Thanks for keeping us posted on your live.

Sounds like quite a trip! I don't know how I'm going to stay off the southern food at USC. It's great to hear what's going on. I'll definitely be up in NY. I can't believe it's been more than 3 years since I've been there!

Naima-

Sounds like a cool conference. Were you there for work, or was Jeremy there for a film project? It's so good to hear updates on what's going on it your life. Say hi to Jeremy and keep posting!
