There have been a couple stressors in my life for a while now, and today I was able to take care of them both in one fell swoop! (Or at least, one fell day.) Part of this involves confession time… Continue reading

Doesn’t anyone want to WORK any more?
Williams-Sonoma has been hiring for several weeks now and everyone they interview wants to work on the sales floor rather than in the stock room, even though we in stock earn $1 more per hour than the sales associates do.

We’re certified!
Our boss is the greatest! Kathy paid for everyone on staff who wanted to to get trained as a Certified Tourism Ambassador (CTA). Mark and I went through the training today at The Clearing in Ellison Bay. But first, a woman from The Clearing gave us a tour of the campus. Continue reading
My take on things
Mark mentioned in his guest blog that I was feeling overwhelmed a few days ago. More on that at the end of this post, but for right now, here are some of the shots I took of the boat tour Tim gave us: Continue reading
Clean bill of health
Just a quick note tonight for those of you who remember I inhaled some bad chemicals on April 6th. I had a pulmonary function test on Tuesday and I saw my doctor this morning for the results. Continue reading
