Day 462...Year 2

I just want to say that happily I did not drill through my finger this weekend while using the power drill... However, I did burn my thumb when I touched the masonry drill bit after drilling in the concrete in our driveway... I guess a burn is better than blood any day...

It's funny, every time Mom and I take on a project at home we learn a little bit more about ourselves... I never thought I would be doing some of the things I have done over the past few years, but drilling into concrete was not something I thought I would ever do... There is something almost therapeutic about using a power drill and drilling into something as hard and seemingly impenetrable... You put all of yourself behind the drill putting pressure to break through and when you do, it's amazing to realize what you just did...

It's kind of like when you are pursuing, what seems to be an impossible dream... When you get to the point where you finally reach that dream, there is an amazing feeling of accomplishment....

So I continue towards my dreams and not let what seems impossible or impenetrable get in my way...

Love, peace and continue...

Day 52 of 365

Lesson for today, get down on a childs level sometime and really learn to play. I met my 2md cousin this evening. She is smart, outgoing, entertaining and she is only 3.5 years old. She reminded me how,to have fun tonight and she reminded me what unconditional love looks like. Not only was I invited to tea but.she asked me to read a story with her on the floor. She only knew my bff and I for a few hours yet she gave us both hugs goodbye. Kids are so willing to give others the benefit of the doubt and look beyond the physical appearance and get to know a person, why can't grownups do that as well? Something to ponder... Love, peace and stay away from things fried in grease... Musicsongbird

Day 587...Year 2

As I sit and ponder what I have done over the last almost 6 years at Disney, the one thing that stands out more than anything is how blessed I have been to work with the people I have worked with... My COT mentors, My Core Team, My Training Managers, My Typhoon Team...  I miss my Core Team very much but it makes me feel so good to know that we each support each other in all of our pursuits... I love when I am working at my desk and my IM alerts me and it's one of the Cores... Now I won't be getting those alerts from the Principal... It was a great time celebrating his new Teaching job last night but something I wish we had done was go around the table and share our favorite Principal story... So, I will share a few of mine... I had the honor of being his first Disney trainer in Future World North... It was me against 3 guys and out of the 3 he was the only one that still remains at Epcot... He was the first trainee to turn me bright red and leave me speechless and it
