First - Welcome to all the new visitors, and a big thanks to David for the exposure on his blog. I loved reading your comments!

Second - The past few days have been a roller-coaster of craziness. My company laid-off a huge percentage of management yesterday, with little warning. I believe it was neccessary, and am grateful I still have a job, but my heart is hurting for those that are gone. Some have been here for as long as I can remember, and some even longer. My mentor is now gone. She has been an inspiration and a mother figure to all of us at one point or another. She will be dearly missed. Already it seems quiet and empty here. Despite this, I have hope that tomorrow will bring better things for all of us.

Third - It's Thirsty Thursday! What's in your wineglass? Today I've chosen Yellow Tail Cabernet Sauvignon. It's mellow, but rich and sweet. One of my favourites.

I always like to end my posts like we're in the middle of a conversation...

Gosh, I'm so sorry for you and especially for your colleagues who have lost their jobs. The mood in your company will not be a happy one I guess. It's good that you still have your job :-)

(It's only 18.27 hrs here, no wine in my glass yet. First a coffee for me! Douwe Egberts, medium roasted beans from a Jura coffee/espressomachine. Yummy.
Still, bottoms up!)

My God! The colours are doing my head in...

Carolina - Thanks for the nice words.

1827 is plenty late enough for wine!

Chairman Bill - I have yet to find a template that I like and am not talented enough to build one. The colours make me feel less boring!
