Summer Friends

Over the summer Flipper and Sunny made several new friends.
In an earlier post I told you how much fun they had with Rio.
(If you missed it you can read it here.)
George, their new friend, is a feathered one.

(So I don’t have to worry about their dog-breath : )

This time we have different kind of issues.
George is an African Grey.
I was really curious to see how Flipper was going to react to him (she grew up with a Grey).
She didn’t disappoint. One minute she wanted to play with George. The other she was chasing him.
(In a typical Flipper fashion — she wanted to make sure he knows who’s the boss.)

Later on that day I was on the phone in the other room when I heard Sunny screaming at the top of his lungs.
I hurried back to see what’s going on.
Well, there seem to be a problem.
A BIG one.
Miss Flipper left Sunny by himself; and went to sit by George.

Sunny was broken hearted.
And furious.
And wanted the whole neighborhood to know all about it.

I quickly restored the “proper” order.

Then I made some popcorn.
Everyone is happy now.
Restoring peace — with a popcorn party.

Mariana Fieraru

Mariana Fieraru, an Eastern European transplant, fell in love with her new home shortly after landing in New York. She "discovered" pizza! Years later she still loves pizza. And so do her two feathered-kids, Sunny and Flipper

Mariana worked on both, the east and the west coast.
Big or small, each project she worked on helped define the importance of gaining and sustaining a competitive edge in an increasingly complex business environment.
