Stop shoveling and read my blog...

Good afternoon, snowy northerners--

What a better way to rest a few minutes in between winter aerobics (shoveling) than to grab a cup of hot chocolate and read about my adventures in sunny southern Florida! Wait...don't hit delete--keep reading!

I have now completed my first week at the PGA Headquarters and what a week it was! I had the grand tour in both PGA HQ buildings and met the 163 people I work with each day. I remember only about 30 some people's names--but I'm trying to memorize more names daily. That's okay--some people have called me Lori or Lisa--so they can't remember my name either!! We don't have to wear silly name badges on a rope around our neck--so that's nice (but not so nice when trying to spy their names).

My third day on the job I got to join the CEO and the President, Vice President, and Secretary of the PGA for lunch with along with five other colleagues. What a nice group of people they are. I work with some pretty fun and amazing people who really do make one big PGA family. Last night was our staff Holiday Party--a fabulous event with five courses of outstanding food, beverages, tropical locale and dancing. Another test for me to remember names, but people had placecards, so I could cheat! (As long as they sat at their assigned seats.)

Today I played golf at PGA National with a wonderful couple from "Jersey." After golf, they invited me to their home for dinner this week--so that will be a nice evening to look forward to.
I promised I wouldn't mention the temperature--but for those of you who know when I graduated from high school ('81) you will know the temperature. HA!

Well, I've managed to be here almost a week and have yet to buy groceries so I think I'm headed to the Publix on the way home (the Florida version of Cub!) Thanks for checking in and I'll continue to be in touch.
