Important stuff

Some things are important, some things not so. Let's review.

Not important: 
1) How the NCAA regional in Omaha turns out this weekend. If you are going to be anywhere near the Century Link Center, good luck. About 18,000 basketball crazies will be there. Tickets are about four times the face value. That's why I call them crazies.

2) The whole political turmoil. It doesn't matter what your views are to many, they have their own and are probably willing to share their views with you. It seems people who are really concerned, aren't that interested in hearing someone spew and opposing viewpoint. Said, but true.

3) Wanting warmer weather NOW.. It'll be here before we know it, and some will relish sitting inside their air-conditioned cubicle. Just give nature time to figure it out.

Important:

1) Knowing your expectations and limitations. Don't sit back and be lazy, don't set yourself up for failure. Find a groove you can be pleased with you accomlishments.

2) Love your surroundings. Enjoy the people you work with, you live with, those you come into contact with. They all have positive qualities you can draw from.

3) Keep your shoes tied, so you don't stumble...and make your zipper is sipped. I don;t thin an explanation is need on the zipper.


As Dave Garroway would say he signed off on the "Today" show, "PEACE".

Finally Friday

Some random thought about spring time to share today. Saw on Facebook a satellite photo of the thousands of bird migrating to Nebraska. Pretty impressive, many in south central Nebraska at Harlan, also along the Platte River, spring must be coming soon. The calendar flipped from February to March, another sign of spring is on its way. However, don't discount the late winter snow storm that is able to bring activities to a grinding halt. We may see one yet! I could do without it. It's the Lenten season, seems every town has at least one organization with a weekly fish fry. I won't mention any particular one, just pick one out,  you'll probably bump into friends, neighbors, or relatives. Bon appetite'. Baseball is underway on all levels. The majors, college, high schools, and even the little leagues are getting the gear out for another season.  Don't let Easter sneak up on you, it's on April Fools Day. You can tell Easter isn't far off. It r...

Nice Donation!

A worker at a Texas thrift store made an unusual discovery while going through a box of donations – $17,050 in the pocket of an old coat. Guadalupe Reesor, who works at the Resale Shop owned by Jewish Family Service in Richardson, was sorting clothing donations and examining them for stains and holes when she discovered something in the pocket of a black pea coat – $17,050 separated into four envelopes. Reesor brought the cash to her boss, Assistant Manager Kristina Russell and Russell contacted Cathy Barker, chief operating officer at Jewish Family Service. The workers examined the envelopes and discovered one of them bore a name they connected to an entry in the store’s donor database. The donor, a 78-year-old widow named Sheri, said she donated her husband’s old coat after his death in January. She said she did not know about the stash of cash. The store cut Sheri a check for the $17,500 found in the coat’s pocket. Sheri awarded Reesor $1,000 for her honesty.

What's the news that gets to you.

All kinds of different stories making the news these days. Away from the political noise of "he said, she said" stuff, which is good theatrics, but I wish they would get something done about coming to a common goal of making this world a better place to live. Anyway.. I see, Toys For Us is shutting down. The blame is being put on Wal-Mart and Amazon. I didn't realize Toys For Us had been around 70 years. I wonder where the idea for Toys For Us came from. there were a lot of new ideas put into action after World War II. Maybe, Toys For Us was one of them. As a parent you, like your children grow out of the store. Seems like they couldn't get the last couple of generations to take their children there and make purchases. Did you hear about the dog that wound up in Japan, instead of Kansas City? Seems an airline passenger was traveling. She got to K.C., but her dog wound up in Japan, while another dog...yup you guessed it, was supposed to go to Japan and wound up ...
