30 days of Thankfulness – Day 11

I’m thankful for our veterans; for those past, present, and future. My adopted soldier came home this week and I’m so happy for him and thankful for the sacrifices that are made by him, his family, and for all the soldiers that are fighting for this great country.

God bless America!

30 days of Thankfulness – Day 10

I am thankful for the opportunity to learn. My job offers free tuition for me at limited number of hours each semester. Although, I haven’t taken advantage of that. I have taken advantage of the professional development classes. I took my 2nd workshop today on Professional Ethics. A lot of it was common since, but we had a great discussion of the recent ethical issues at Penn State, among a list of other ethics issues in business, on other campuses, and even here at Auburn.

30 days of Thankfulness – Day 9

Today I’m thankful for the great Scouting program that we have here in Auburn. I’m very proud to say that my hubby, Rob is a huge reason that the pack that Monkey is in is the biggest pack in Auburn and the best! 🙂 I’m thankful we have the opportunity to be able to fundraise to help, not only our fees for the year, but also the pack and the council. Teenager uses his money for his fees to pay for all the camping trips through out the year.

Many people when it comes time to narrowing down what activities their boys do, put scouting on the bottom of the list, so they drop out. I’m happy that teenager has made it a priority through out and is currently a Life Scout, rank under Eagle. Rob is an Eagle Scout. I hope that Monkey Boy decides to crossover to Boy Scouts when the time comes. Putting sports before scouts is a choice that people make, but I know that Rob has been put on the top of job hiring lists because he was an eagle scout, not because he played little league.

30 days of Thankfulness – Day 8

I am thankful I am able to help others through giving blood. Today was my 2nd time to give blood. It’s such a rewarding feeling…a little woozy, but still great to know I’m helping others.

30 days of Thankfulness – Day 7

Today I’m thankful my awesome group of student workers. I’ve found through my experiences in my new job, that I love working with college aged ‘kids.’ The students I work with are anywhere from 18-26 years old. We don’t limit what majors are allowed to work in our department, which is really cool because we have students’ majors vary: education, engineering (of all sorts), pre-med, anthropology, philosophy, history, public relations. We also have a diverse group. I learn so much from these guys and gals. Talking to these kids, I’ve learned so much about other countries, especially India.

I enjoy keeping in touch through facebook with the students who have graduated. I’m glad to be known as “the cool supervisor.” 🙂
