New Year Resolutions

New Year Resoulutions is something that I have secretly made fun of. One reason is I know hardly anyone keeps up with them. Two they spend a bunch of money at first and by spring the treadmill is in a garage sale or they are canceling their gym membership. You get the point.
So this year I am going to make some New Life Resolutions. There are things in my life that I want to be better at but they are things that will be a life of contantly doing. The list, well that is to long to write and it is an on going one. Although I will tell you a couple of them because they are things I would like to see change soon. VERY SOON. One is for my work to grow and the second is to find a bigger home and sell our current one.
So what are your New Life Resolutions?

We Give Thanks

As everyone else is doing right now they are giving thanks. There are many days I wake up and don't even think of giving thanks cause life is tough so how could I give thanks. Unfortunately I am wrong very wrong. I have a lot to be thankful for. So here is my list. (in no particular order).
  1. The fact that I still have a home
  2. My God who is always there.
  3. My Wife who puts up with me and still loves me.
  4. My Children who drain me but fill me up to.
  5. My Parents
  6. My brother and his family
  7. Vehichles
  8. This list can continue but I will stop here.
So let me know what you are thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving
Derek

Miscommunication

I got a call today that went like this.

Caller: Hi Derek this is ? I was checking in with you to see if you would be at the shop today to load the truck for tomorrows show?

Me: no I will not be there till tomorrow.

Caller: well we are actually leaving tonight

Me: well I was not informed of this and your company called me the other day to make sure my paper work was up to date and that I was still good for the show but nothing was said about today.

Caller: well let me make some phone calls and I will get back to you.

Whoops?!

What's Your Benefit

I have signed up to collect shoes for Soles4Souls again. This is a great organization that does need your money but more than that they need your shoes. I have made S4S my main organization that I promote and donate to. I know there are thousands of companies out there doing a poor job and a great job but S4S is doing it greatly. They operate on less than 5% of donations that come in. That is remarkable!

So take sometime and research who you want to invest time in and then do so. I personally could use your help in my efforts for S4S. So feel free to click on the link below or show up to the South Nash Dash and give.
