    I work for Dell! I manage a team of software developers and most of my software engineers are in India. It's such an awesome experience to come here. It's definitely a developing nation, but the culture and the people here are so beautiful. I will be coming to India 3-4 times/year. This time I got some amazing photos touring a place called Hampi. Can't wait to get home and upload the images off my camera so I can edit and scrap! (stay tuned!! lol)

    Do you work outside the home? what does everyone else do? (do we share that now?? remember when we all had screen names and hid our real identities years ago??!)

    Welcome back Beckie! I'm glad you kept your avi because I totally remember you from whenever you were here before or maybe even from MSA or somewhere else. My Avi is super old too, but I'm afraid if I update mine, people won't know who I am! LoL! :giggle

    I used to be a software developer MANY MANY moons ago. My daughter was very sick when she was born so I had to stop working. (LOOOOONG story.) I used to work for Bell Labs/Lucent.

    Yay, so many photos to scrap I’ll wager your gallery will be bursting with pages before too long. Welcome to the pad and hope you will enjoy being back in the digi fold.
