Here comes the sun...

Monday...or as one of my friends on Facebook refers to it...MOAN-Day!  Back to work after being off for a week and a half and all in all it was a pretty good day, in spite of trying to remember what I was working on or said I would work on before I left on vacation.  I think some people still had the day off because it was a pretty slow email and meeting day...let's hope the rest of the year goes that way.  So, what am I grateful for today...

Smile: what did I smile about?

Well, this morning I got to wake up with Jon Bon Jovi...well, not really, but it's the closest thing I will ever get to waking up to him, listening to him sing one of my favorite songs, "Here comes the sun."  You see, I'm a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE, Bon Jovi fan and I have several songs in a play list called "wake up times" that I set to be my alarm each morning.  The songs are set to play on shuffle, so I'm not really ever sure what may come up that morning and yet, every time "Here comes the sun"  comes up on my Ipod playlist, I just smile and know that the day is starting off right!  Enjoy the song (it has some audio/video problems, but you can still ooogle over that beautiful man and hear his beautiful voice sing this beautiful song!)  Perhaps it may make you smile too!

Celebrate:  What did I celebrate today?

I celebrated the fact that I was quite proud of myself for having all my strategy and objectives laid out for my team way before the year ended and now my team is executing upon those plans without me having to even mention anything to them to get them on track, even after we've all been off work for the last week and a half.  I consider myself quite lucky to manage a great group of people who are just as committed to success as I am.  It makes for a great environment where we can accomplish some really wonderful things for our organization!

Love:  What did I love today?

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE reality shows and am so excited that the Bachelor starts tonight.  Don't get me wrong, it's a huge time suck and yet I find myself totally mesmerized by these crazy girls making total fools of themselves for someone that they think is their "knight in shining armor."  I guess I'm living a little vicariously through these girls because it certainly wouldn't be something I would do to search for love, perhaps that's why I'm still single...may need to explore that a little more!  At any rate, reality tv is my guilty pleasure, sad as it is, but I adore shows like the Bachelor, Biggest Loser, Survivor, Amazing Race and when its a slow tv period, I'll suck myself into a Real Housewives of XYX city any day...sad, but true.

Cheers to you all!
