Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone

The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.

Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!

How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

From The Corner Of My Mind

* I am still full of joy about our grandchild being born.
* W-baby momma, dad and baby are headed home this morning to spend the first day in their own home.
* Great Granny has made chicken and dumplings for them for supper.
* I am back at work this morning. It feels good to be back in the groove and being productive, not to mention making money!
* I am thinking about taking a vacation during the Christmas holidays. Something I've never done before. I usually take vacations during the summer.
* I need to burn some vacation days and I think it will be a great time to visit Madison and Ava.
* For those of you who have wondered about the welding trailer project, it's still there. Just have not had time to work on it the last few weekends with baby Madisons arrival and the races. I am hoping to spend some time on it during the Thanksgiving holidays and when I take a vacation during Christmas.
* The trailer has been out in the weather and is starting to rust stain. Which translates into a lot of sanding again before painting. The welder is inside and needs to have an oil leak fixed.
* Our Message Sunday morning at church was great. "It's not what you HAVE to do."-"It's what you GET to do.".
* I don't have to go to work. I GET to.
* I don't have to go to Church. I GET to.
* I don't have to smile. I GET to.
* I don't have to love my family. I GET to.
* I am so blessed to be able to GET to do these things.
* If you are having a bad day today, think about it in that manner. It has helped me this week put some things in perspective that has been heavy on my mind and heart.
* I need to get back to drilling, see ya Around The Corner!
