No, there wasn’t a part one, I’m just at another cabin this weekend and it felt applicable. I’m at my other cousin’s cabin this weekend, it’s very different but it’s still a lake and family, and honestly, those are the best parts, that and maybe the water skis. My cousins and uncle did a great job skiing, they all slalomed. They’re all good at it, and it was fun to watch them! I got to learn from my cousin about some of the techniques to use for me to drop a ski, and still balance. We grew up together, being the same age and all so to be back at…

I’ve been looking at realtor websites for like over a year, but I finally got approved for a mortgage. Just today I looked at my first two homes. Thankfully my folks were able to come along. It’s crazy how the last time I moved was nearly a decade ago. Our whole family participated in that search back when I was in middle school, we tried to all go to the showings, and we would imagine living there and see past cosmetic imperfections. In fact, we had to be in the selling and search process for about a year and a half, but that’s a story for another day. The first…

See what I did there? 😉 Yeah I have a lot of clothes, as I’ve mentioned before my wardrobe is fairly diverse, but also very affordable, what with the number of pieces I have been given, and the number of clearance deals, I find, add on top the fact that I’m not growing out of hardly anything anymore. It doesn’t show any sign of downsizing. That said, I’ve also been scared of getting rid of items for lack of knowing what my work wardrobe would be upon getting a full-time role. Now that I know I can wear anything from smart casual to jeans and a vacation/company t-shirt, to even…

I saw Guys & Dolls last night at the Guthrie Theatre with a friend. I was quite fun, especially after having seen the old movie a couple of times previously. The best actor/actress at the show last night was the woman who played Miss Adelaide. She was really fun and did a good job with the role. Most everything was spot on, but her performance stood out. It was interesting to see how the stage set changed the show as a whole. It was hardly a bad change, but it just meant a different dynamic. I was surprised by how much I liked the on-stage performances of Sky and Nathan,…

In my new role, I’ve called a number of businesses in an effort to see if they’d find our product helpful. Although the person on the other end of the line can be a bit apprehensive at first, when my coworker has visited he’s come back with great notes, about how the client is excited to use our services. This all got me thinking about what I used to think of sales and a post I wrote a while back on how good salesmen (and women) are not the enemy. I believe a good salesman is not one that pushes beyond what they should. I’m talking about salesmen that have…
