Snowman Memories

It dawned on me the other day, as I was watching my daughter get ready to go outside and play that I havent made a snowman in a long time. A very long time.

Now, I have never created a masterpiece quite like this one, but, I remember fondly rolling up up the bottom..... then the middle..... then the head... and searching for just the right props to be the eyes, the buttons and then finding the hat & scarf. Of course, my brother and I were secretly wishing it would come to life~~

As of this week, Thursday.. I am officially done with my Fall quarter of school... hot damn!! I am now free until January 3rd - ish.. so maybe, just maybe... Ill make a snowman. We do seem to have plenty of heavy packable snow laying around.

I challenge you, to do this with your kids or just for the sake of doing it...AND take a picture and send it to me..... heck, make a snow angel if nothing else.

Come on .. I dare you.. I triple dog dare you infinity forever... its not like Im asking you to stick your tonque to an icy pole.

(long story short: I thought I could lick the top of some ice on the top of the steel barrel when I was like 11.. wrong, my entire bottom lip was stuck to the ice...that was SO NOT COOL)

Toes



I really want my toes to be

in this place right now.

I miss the beach!

The white sandy beaches like

we had in Florida.

The sand Kozy I was making out of sand for my Decaf Cooler from Dunkin Donuts.

I miss it all! I want to go back, to stay longer, to see another

palm tree. To stick my toes in the sand! When does my plane leave ?

Leadership...not just a dream

Good leaders are made not born. If you have the desire and willpower, you can become an effective leader. Good leaders develop through a never ending process of self-study, education, training, and experience.

Leadership is a process by which a person influences others to accomplish an objective and directs the organization in a way that makes it more cohesive and coherent.

People can choose to become leaders. People can learn leadership skills. This is the Transformational Leadership Theory. It is the most widely accepted theory today.

Why am I talking about Leadership... well, it was posed to me today to step up and take Leadership, take charge of my future and it really hit me.

So, how do I do that? I know a lot about Leadership....after all, I work for an organization that deals in what it takes to be a Leader and to be able to maintain it, but I all of a sudden, dont know HOW to be a Leader.

What do I need to do differently, how do I need to act, present myself, Be...approach people, bring up ideas? Should I walk more gracefully, do I cover my tattoos, what? Speak more clearly and slowly? Delegate more?

If you read any GOOD research on what Leadership is.. it will give you a ton of different traits, some of which I already posses.. in order to become a good Leader. It will also tell you things like, watch the bottom line.. which is important, pat your secretaries on the butt, and make sure they take good dictation.. I dont know... the point is... how do we measure a great Leader?

Folks, I am now on a quest, to become a Great Leader. Notice I did not say a "leader" but I said a Great Leader.

I guess I should start researching Great Women Leaders in history..... maybe one day my name will appear there.... scratch that.... it WILL be there!

What will MY title be: Hmmmmmmm......maybe

Nothing exciting...

Well, this week comes to a close and the weekend peaks its head around the corner.... as I look back on my week.. there were a few things that I should mention:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My baby, Randi... turned 10 this week. WOW!! People say all the time that they dont know where the time goes, and they are right. I look at her and see a young gal looking back at me... its not right.

She should still be 5 or so.... but she is not, she is 10. This year she wanted money for her birthday to go shopping with, and that is exactly what we did.
We went to Mall of America, and had Tucci Bennuch for lunch and shopped til her little feet couldnt carry her any further.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am also almost finished with my fall quarter of school.... thank gawd!! I am so freak'n sick of this quarter I could spit nails.......
I have the same lame instructor for BOTH of my classes (which didnt start out that way) and she drives me nuts (she drives everyone nuts)

I had a presentation due last night that I had to give with three other students... which was just "ok"by the way.. (I much prefer to work alone, which is not really the point of group work I know.. but they all wanted to work seperatley as well)... which made our presentation that much more difficult to do.. and we have had 5 weeks to put it together.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, I have no exciting news..... at least not right now....I havent had a lot of time on my hands lately to be "creative"....I know, bummer.

Maybe Ill do something cute this weekend for ya..... you never know.
