RIP Toby Keith

It’s a sad day today.

I woke up to the news of one of my favorite country music stars passing away yesterday.

I loved him and his music.

I was just thinking about him on Saturday. I said a prayer for him when we walked by his old restaurant in Harrahs hotel in Vegas.

We lost a good one.

Prayers to his family and friends.

I am heart broken today.

That Work Thing: Reverse Advent Calendar

My coworkers and I participated in this last this last November at work.

I bought all of the items on this list this year. I was pumped. Last year I wanted to complete the list but I didn’t. I bought some items but not all.

The food was donated to a local food pantry at the beginning of December.

I feel I rarely say postive stuff about work so I wanted to share this. This is not set up by upper management, but one of the coordinators on first shift.

It feels good to participate in this with 1st and 3rd shift. It feels good to give back to people.

Good things do happen at work.

I just need to open my eyes open and not focus on the bad.

From 14 Inches Of Snow To Below Zero Temps

Friday night into Saturday morning we got 14 inches of snow.

My driveway
The walkway in front of my house
The drifts in my backyard

Today temp is 1 degree.

It’s cold! My dog doesn’t like it outside because he can’t find a place to pee before his paws get cold.

These cold temps are going to hang around til Thursday.

Today I stayed in the house and cleaned.

Right now we are watching the game.

Oh well. That’s winter in Wisconsin

The Days Of 2024

Did you know that there are:

53 Mondays

53 Tuesdays

52 Wednesdays

52 Thursdays

52 Fridays

52 Saturdays

52 Sundays

In 2024?

I never thought about this before.

My question to myself is:

What am I going to do with my days?

I’m not sure.

I realize they are a gift.

I’m going to try to use them appropriately and try not to waste them.

I’m going to try to do things differently and life differently in 2024.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

Sorry this is late. I thought I posted it yesterday but when I looked it was gone. I don’t know if I deleted it or what happened.

Anyway…..

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas Late From Vegas!

I was going to take and post pictures yesterday but it was so busy. Wall to wall people.

Today is much calmer.

Here’s three of pictures I took.

A much needed vacation for my husband and I.

We fly home tomorrow. Can’t wait to see my puppy!

I hope everyone had a merry Christmas!

Fun Friday: A Bosses Day Present

As I was collecting money for my coordinator’s bosses day present a light bulb went on in my head.

I should be buying myself a bosses day present.

I am my own boss aren’t I?

I am still working with my first client. I have my 2nd client scheduled for Oct. 23 and I could have had another client but I’m going on vacation and she needed my services ASAP.

So even though I’m just starting out I am my own boss.

I’ve been working hard at getting my business off of the ground. Mostly by myself. There’s been some rough days, but all in all it’s been pretty darn good.

I stopped at the bank today to get money for my trip and the teller told me she liked my flyers and she needs my help with her clutter. That made my heart happy. She is my favorite teller and I’m more than happy to help her. Exciting!

Good things are happening. Things are coming together. It’s good!

I’m really proud of myself. I’ve grown alot. Tackled my challenges while moving forward.

Hell ya I’m a business owner!!!

I’ll let you know what i bought myself.
