Okay, so I'm still sitting on the computer, reading Kevin's blog and seeing if Tang's written anything new. Came across these incredible toys. Wow! I could definitely see myself buying one of those for a grandchild. :-) Yes, I'm going to be a loopy Nana!
In reading Kev's blog, I find myself having to share this one lady's comment from Boss Tip #1 -Get Out From Behind Your Desk.

I remember many years ago, taking a course in university--Management 401 or some such name. Anyway one of the "tricks" they taught the class was to put three loonies in the left pocket each morning, then each time you complimented an employee on a job well done etc. you were to move one loonie to the right pocket. By the end of the day you were to have all three loonies in the right pocket. I now (after many years and much life experience) wonder why we need a "loonie" to remind us to let a person know they have done a great job. As adults we are very fragile. In my own day to day practice, I try to let those around me know how great they are and what t terrific job they are doing. I have learned the importance of good communication and real caring--both of which I hope I convey. The older I get, the more kind I have become and the less I know! I truly enjoy people and have learned so much from some of the folks that have passed thru my life. I also believe that everyone and everything is brought into my life for a reason--I am to learn something!. If the "bad stuff" keeps repeating then I know I have not learned the lesson I am supposed to. When I finally do learn the lesson, life moves along. Thanks for allowing me the time and place to share some of my thoughts.
Have to update my template to add a couple more blogs.
Toodles again!
