Some Team Recognition At Work

Today at work we had a luncheon that was also a team meeting. We had some good discussions and each of us was recognized for our unique contribution to our department. This is my certificate for being the King of Advice because I’ve been around for 11 years and have some knowledge gained from experience. This was a great gesture from my bosses.

Some Wednesday Wisdom

Be Calm (or not) and be who you are. This is solid wisdom for everyone who hopes they are OK being themselves in this crazy world.

Back In The Old Work Neighborhood

I am back in my old work neighborhood temporarily while my new work neighborhood has a major plumbing issue resolved. It’s fun seeing some old and familiar faces again. I don’t know how long I’ll be here but I’m going to enjoy it as long as I can.

Happy Dog Mother’s Day

I want to say Happy Dog Mom’s Day to my Laura, who has been the mother of three dogs (Mikey, Cody, and Frankie). Dog moms are great, and I think our Frankie is lucky to have his mommy.

Happy Mother’s Day, To My Mom

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, and especially my mom. I don’t know how old we were here, but I am grateful for my mom always. I love you, mom.
