ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

JANUARY 28TH, 2013

51 DAYS UNTIL SPRING

If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side

It's  MONDAY

FUN AT WORK DAY

Fun at Work Day is a day to have fun at work for once. Ideally, work should be fun. But normally, work is not intended to have fun. It's intended to get work done. You're a very lucky person, if you if you can get work done and have fun doing it. The lucky souls in this situation, love their job.

Unfortunately, all of us are not lucky enough to have a job that's fun to do. If that's you, then today is a day just for you! Think of ways to make your job more fun and exciting. Look to do some fun things at work today, even if it takes away from production just a wee bit.

If your work keeps you very busy – just sharing a smile and a few fun words can cheer up most everyone.

Today and every day the workplace should be spiced with fun, laughter and a playful attitude

Fun is about as good a habit as there is. 

Jimmy Buffet

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Work is either fun or drudgery. It depends on your attitude. I like fun. 

Colleen C. Barrett 

Ever since I retired, my work is more fun than it ever was.  Every day I make it a point to do something I love to do and it is fun when you're doing what you love.

More and more I'm enjoying the simple life and staying at home has become more appealing than it ever used to be. There are so many things to do right here, that I don't need to go places to have fun.  Listening to music is always fun no matter where you are and a hot cup of tea or coffee always seems to energize me.  

I think that when your work is fun you're more creative and more productive too.  So no matter where you work, or what you do I hope you have fun doing it.  

The pictures today are of a sunny but cold afternoon we had recently.  

Have a great Monday everyone!  Have some fun today. Laugh and have a good time. Do something you enjoy with someone you care about. Why wait till the weekend to have fun?

In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and -SNAP - the job's a game!

Pamela Lyndon Travers

COUNTING MY GIFTS

May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

Irish Blessing

I am trying to count at least 3 things I'm thankful for each day and then in 1 year's time I'll have counted 1000 gifts.

I’ll be sharing them and giving thanks to God for these gifts each day,

224. for baking bread

225. for being content with what I have

226. for being able to live my dream

Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!

PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS

Please pray for God's protection of

our troops and HIS wisdom for their

commanders.

Lord, hold our troops in

your loving hands.

Protect them as they protect us.

Bless them and their families for the

selfless acts they perform for us

in our time of need. I ask this in the

name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters

and Paramedics and EMT's

GOD BLESS YOU !

 

Getting there isn't half the fun-- it's all the fun. 

 Robert Townsend

 

A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…

Love,
