This is an awesome 2-part post, mosly because I got distracted and only got around to writing the title last night before falling asleep. So sorry if there are multiple concepts in one place, but I thought it was important to still reflect on both of my days. After all, this is still in the…

Day 15: Love the little ones
Happy Thanksgiving! We have had the great opportunity to be at my sisters house this year. We ate a lot, laughed a lot and made some memories. I got to hang out with three out of seven of my favorite little ones in the whole universe. I’m not too anxious to be a mother myself,…
Day 14: Carsick
Today I learned: I get carsick when I try to write a blog in the car. Now off I go to hope the rest of the trip goes by quickly.
Day 13: Office Decorating 101
So today during lunch I ran across an interesting article about 13 Things Your Desk Says About You. While the concept of personal marketing isn’t necessarily new to me, the thought of my desk playing a part of that certainly is. Of course I glanced hesitantly over my workspace realizing how much dust had accumulated…
Day 12: Life’s not fair
Today was a tough day. With the holiday season and coworkers on vacation, there have a been a few extra responsibilities to look out for, but I can handle that. Today I spent most of my day immersed in the news articles about the Mandera Massacre in Kenya. It’s gruesome, so I’ll spare you the details (read them…
Day 11: Brevity
Day 11: A few right words are better than a lot of wrong ones.
Day 10: Laugh with Anyone

Day 9: Chance it
I love my days off. I love when I stay at home in my pajamas doing absolutely nothing, except for a big adventurous trip to Subway to eat lunch. I also love when I go out into the real world and enjoy the day while others are busy working. One of our favorite things to…
Day 8: Distract yourself
My inspirational outlet at work comes in the form of Banangram tiles. While working, I spend a fair amount of day looking for just the right word to express a given thought accurately. But what I love about these tiles is there is no “best” word (unless you’re playing strategically I guess). I get to…
Day 7: Care about Quality
My new self-proclaimed “looking away from the screen” project at work is to read through this small book called Health and Wellness: Secrets that will change your life to find sharable quotes for social media. I’m on chapter 6 entitled “You Are What You Think” and I’m sure my thoughts could be a lot more…
