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

* Well winter arrived in full force once again on Christmas day. Rain, sleet then snow in Decatur. It hasn't gotten above freezing since then. Today it is supposed to get up around 39, then fog tonight and in the morning.
* A great Christmas was once again had at Around The Corner. All the kids were able to be here this year, but Madison was sick and didn't make our Christmas or Papa Harold and Granny D's. Mo and Big Dude didn't make it either because Big Dude has the crud also. They might try to come over the weekend if he feels better. I was a little under the weather since Thursday, but I'm better now also. W-spouse always have the kids a game planned to do with each other at our Christmas. This year it was a scavenger hunt. Boys vs Girls. The boys won by getting their items and returning back first. One of the things they had to do was sing Jingle Bells with the Salvation Army bell ringer in front of Walmart. That was hilarious.
* This was my favorite Christmas present.
* This was second favorite Christmas present.
* The snow didn't stick, or get thick enough on the ground to get the Teryx4 out and play in it. That, and it was to cold to get out.
* I'm watching Breaking Bad on Netflix. I'm nearly through the second season. I hope it gets better before season 3. It's nearly to predictable.
* The group text has been slow over the holidays. I'm sure it will return with a vengeance before the New Year.
* FaceBook was incredibly quiet on Christmas day.
* I waited all Christmas day on the that phone call. It never came, so at 7pm, I made the call. I have a feeling that will be my last.
* As we looked over the presents the day before Christmas eve, W-spouse and I were taking inventory of what we had gotten the G-babies. I made the comment "I think we overdid the overdoing". We both broke into laughter.
* It was a proud moment sitting/setting in church with W-stepson 3 in his Army uniform Sunday morning. Everyone was glad to see him and his mom couldn't have been more proud.
* Time to get to work, see ya Around The Corner!
