How did you do?



The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.
These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the
applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten.
Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.



Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:



1. List a few teachers who aided your journey
through school.

2. Name three friends who have helped you
through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you
something worthwhile.

appreciated and
special.

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time
with.


Easier?


The lesson: The people who make a difference in
your life are not the
ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the
most awards. They are the ones that care.

  Well, I thought it was a neat quiz.

Work last night, well lets just say the nurses all earned their money last night.  I had to be charge the entire 12 hours which I don't care for.  I like having just my group of patients to be responsible and that's that.  But its over and the rest of the weekend should be good.

   Weighed in this morning down all of .6 oz , sheesh.  Don't you just hate digital scales.  With a regular scale it probably would have been an entire pound. By tomorrow it should show the whole pound.  Its coming off slow.  Yesterday I had all of 980 calories.  Now I realize going down that low isn't good and I don't usually don't it, it was just the way it worked out.  Today should be better.    I think it is really important to vary your calorie amount from between 1200 to 1700.  That supposedly tricks your body into not storing your fat for a rainy day.  It worked for me last year.

   Not much in the news to get me outraged yet today but its early.  I haven't read all my on line newspapers yet.  Decided to try meditating and coffee and reading my alerts first.  I feel nice and relaxed but I think my raves are a lot more fun to write about then my slow weight loss.  So on that note, I will leave and read all the news that is unfit to print. 

   Now with global news all you have to do is pick a couple of on line newspapers to read, the news in the same in all of them. Who writes these stories these day, a computer?  It is verbatim in every paper.  The only thing different is some opinion columns and the want ads.  What happened to all the investigative reporters?  Are they all doing blogs and keeping all the good original stuff for their blogs so they get readers?  It sure isn't hitting the paper any more.  You can read the same story from coast to coast, not a letter different.  Sigh.  I really miss the good old days sometimes.  I go kicking and screaming into the 21st century.....Wait....It doesn't promise to be betttttteeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr......
