You got mail
Working in a manufacturing environment, you get 10,000 email a year. There are those that say "Send this to 10 people in 10 minutes..yadda, yadda, yadda. Everybody you work with that gets it send it to you....nothing happens
There are those that say "See what happens when you send this to 10 people"..that would be nothing.....again you get this 50 times from the people you work with...
Then there are those people who have nothing to do so they forward you thier whole in box at one time....50 more....
Love the turn your volume up.....no speaker kids..can't hear it...
"You have been slapped by the friendship fairy..so glad your my friend....I got that from who again?????
But to get to the point, from these 10,000 emails ..the ones that I do not automatically delete because it has been forwarded 25 times and you have to scroll through all that stuff to see what it is about..
I keep the good saying in a folder on my computer. This is my list for the 2007 year.
Hope you enjoy them:
1. Take care of your body, It is the only one you have.
2. Be kind. Be gentle. Be compassionate.
3. Be honest. Your reputation is your most valuable asset.
4 Stand up for what you believe in.
5 . Help to defend those who cannot defend themselves.
6. Laugh often. A good sense of humor can cure almost all of life’s ills.
7. Show respect for all living things, including this planet on which we live.
8. Music and books can heal your soul. Have a good collection of both.
9. Keep a journal. Life moves fast and writing down your thoughts, feelings and experiences can be incredibly grounding.
10. Sometimes being a friend means just ‘being’ there. Words aren’t always necessary and silence can be golden.
11. If you know you’re wrong … admit it.
12. Choose your friends very carefully.
13. Stay connected to those you love.
14. Look for the good in people.
15. Listen to others and to children.
16 Never underestimate your ability. You can do anything you put your mind to.
17. Finish what you start.
18 Save at least 15% of your income
19. Live within your means.
20. Everyone has greatness within his or her soul. Find your passion

Hi Mimi
I agree with you about the useless emails sent out. Problem is, most people do not realize that all the junk emails are slowing the network down and then they wonder why they can not get their emails.
I keep meaning to ask you how you found my blog.
Susie Q,
Iam a QA for about 20 years. Had a bowling friend in Florida with lupus.....don't know how it feels but know Donna had some bad days..
Love the list! Thanks for sharing it - and the thing about the paint? Remember those shakey infa-seats? Plastic? probably from China? And no seatbelts?? Carseats? Yeah, that was my lap!
Is amazing any of my kids survived!
