Did you know today is National Fun at Work Day? I didn't either...but it is. I love my job...but I can't say that I generally have fun at work. I just don't know how much fun a bean counter can have? But, I do know a couple of people that manage to make working fun.

Last weekend we had our first "big" snow of the year. We ended up with probably around 4 inches of snow, but the southern part of Central Ohio received about 9 inches. I know...some of you are laughing right now. You see...it has been a couple of years since we have had a decent amount of snow. We just keep getting these annoying couple of inches at a time that do nothing but make maneuvering the roads a nightmare. We returned to work last Monday on clear roads only to hear weather reports of the next big storm coming in for Saturday and Sunday. All week long we heard the warnings, but the storm was very unpredictable and no one quite knew what to expect. The rain, freezing rain, snow line was supposed to move right through the heart of Central Ohio, and with temperatures hovering on the freezing mark, the storm could do just about anything.
By Friday morning the report was that some were just going to get rain, a small line was going to get ice and everything North was supposed to get anywhere from 6 to 11 inches of snow. We were in the 6 to 11 inches of snow line. So what does everyone do before a snow storm? Head to the grocery for bread and milk. It's been a while since I have had my camera out. I am kind of stuck in a rut. I needed some motivation, and this weekend created the perfect opportunity. Our first real snow of the year. Snow on their backs means they are happy and healthy.
This is Blast... A bull we raised, sold and then bought back this summer. I am not a goal setter. I think it is because I am like most people and peter out after a few weeks or months. Then I am a failure because I didn't complete my goal and a failure at goal setting. It just doesn't help the momentum or ego. But, I do enjoy looking back at the previous year to see what I have accomplished.
I call it reverse goal setting. Looking back at all we have accomplished, just motivates me to keep plugging along. |
