Babies...

Today, in the wake of my extreme disappointment, I am reminding myself how thankful I am for babies.

That's all.

Yesterday I made a big mistake at work...

Without getting into too many details, I sent out flyers on Monday that I had produced announcing a winter class at a rather large school(about 800 kids). Yesterday my boss noticed they have the wrong time on them. Oops.

After speaking to the school secretary this morning, I learned that, since this is a school that LOVES Mad Science and ALWAYS fills two classes, they already sent the flyers home on Tuesday. Oops.

While my boss was clearly upset by this, she certainly didn't take it out on me in the form of scolding or a lecture. She simply said there's always one that gets away from you, and reminded me how much the details matter in this job.

So tonight I'm thankful for a boss who can see that people make mistakes, and the easiest thing to do is get solution-minded. Fix it, and move on. Learn from the mistake so it doesn't happen again. Thanks, Linda!

Life Made Lovely

A friend on Facebook recently had her blog redesigned by a company called "Life Made Lovely Designs." It. Is. GORGEOUS! I instantly needed a new design for my site!

So today I am thankful for Molly Wenger and her artistic and computer-coding skills for making my very own blog site so beautiful! Maybe this will be the inspiration I need to write everyday again...
