For the gardening and wine enthusiast, our Blanc du Bois grapevine is on the verge of blooming, with bud-break now three weeks in the past and heavy rains this week.
Avocado and papaya trees, and pots of Italian herbs--all returned to the yard from winter garage storage.
Family gardening Sunday.

So, Upromise. I hadn't logged into my account for some time. I found I no longer have ANY "rewards" in the account (begun likely 17 years ago) and IF I wanted to, I'd need to start over.
Searching for answers, I called your posted 888-434-9111 support number; the voice operator referred me to three websites if I had questions. No operator.
We were part of your dining rewards program for years but we eat at home the majority of our meals; and the local restaurants we attend don't honor your service...or the lack there of.
On one of those websites, I read that if my account becomes INACTIVE, I would forfeit my rewards. Apparently I wasn't active enough.
What if I was a late bloomer and didn't have children yet--a child to whom I would assign my rewards for college?
So I ask, what happened to the $35, or $300, or $750 I accumulated in my account over the years?
Who promised? I no longer view Upromise as promising. Or sincere.

Meet Darren P. Etlinger Segment
Morning friends. To offer up a little unknown something about Darren, I give you:
So, after loosing a job, and while in graduate school, I started Earthtones by d.p.Etlinger in the fall of 2001. I took a hobby of making primarily metal furniture--something I had been doing since 1996--and billed my self as a maker of custom metal furnishings, accessories, functional art and sculpture. I rented a warehouse space near downtown Houston, where I lived and worked from 2001-2005. My warehouse space eventually became part of a larger warehouse art community where roughly 50 other artists rented space--where we participated in private shows and collective shows in our greater space as well as being a stop along the downtown ArtCrawl & FotoFest.
