Good News (for Drew) ...

Well, I have some good news to let everyone know. I have been attempting to transfer out of my group in Implementation to Marketing. I was offered the job last Thursday by the supervisor of the Marketing Support Group for LAB. So this means that I can use my knowledge of LAB to demonstrate the modules to potential customers. This will mean more travel.

Well the same number of weeks but just to more places within the week. Which means quicker status on airlines. I am excited about that. And more status at hotels. So one day I may actually use the miles that I have been hoarding for the past three years. So that is my good news.

Some of you may know about a challenge I am undertaking. Fueled by the pride I have in Allison's endeavor to walk 60 miles in three days I signed up for the Walt Disney World 1/2 Marathon. Yes, to RUN it. The Walt Disney World 1/2 Marathon will be on January 9th, 2005. There is a large contingent of Bennetts making their way to Florida. Tara and Erik were the ones who signed up first and Tara has been coordinating all of our rooms. Shelby and her friend Caitlin are going. My parents are going, some of my aunts and uncles are going, Meghan Healey is going and some of Tara's friends are also going. So it looks like should be a good time and a boatload of people.

Another update on the good news front. It looks like those three months of being in the office were short lived. I am on the road next week to New York for a "warm fuzzy" meeting with a site that I am going to go to in August to teach Reports (covering for another specialist). "Yay for me" (Sarc). But next week I do get to travel with another specialist so it should be a good time.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
