Peaceful Snow

This morning I was sitting by my computer, reading my e-mails, when suddenly I was over come by how quiet it was here at home. No t.v., no radio, no white noise . The only sound was the Cuckoo Clock ticking away the minutes of the morning. When I looked up I noticed that it had begun to snow. It was those very peaceful large flakes falling out of the sky.. The sight that surrounded me outside my windows was breath taking, smoothing and oh so stress free. My house sits in the middle of a wooded lot, on top of a small hill. Every window I looked out it was peacefully snowing. The Birch trees and mature Maples still covered from Thursday's snow are being redusted. The Downys and Hairys are chasing each other up the trees after feasting on suet cakes. The Red Breast Woodpecker sits high in the Maple watching for his turn to come up at the feeder. Mr. Cardinal is sitting in the birch tree showing off his beautiful red feathers against the peeling bark and snowy woods behind him. The Squirrel brothers 3, sit below the feeders along with our flock of Morning Doves waiting for others to throw down some seed. Thank you, Lord God, for the beauty that surrounds me everyday and the ability to see it through good times and bad.

Starting My Own Business

Today I started to write a business plan for a new business adventure that I going to try. I would like to start a continuing education training for Preschool teachers, Daycare workers, and Nannies. After many years of being in the education system and attending many boring conferences, I think it's time to strike out as see if their is a market for this type of service and if I am any good at it. All state certified teachers and workers need to do 25 hours of continuing education a year in the State of Wisconsin and all workers in daycare needs to be certified. So the audience is there and I have signed on with two organizations in the state to teach these classes. Now I just need to write the business plan and the courses and their bench marks. I wold also like to design and execute children's parties and outings. Just need to get a business name and away I can go.

Find a enjoyable, more simplistic and better understanding, of how we can simplify our lives and still live the full filled life that God has planned for us and what we all strive for. I also hope I can add some smiles to your reading and some good old belly laughs to your day. As this journey through life is full of adventures. My family and friends always told me to write a book as the adventures that I have had and I'm sure are yet to come are great entertainment.
