Work and a Few Tidbits. . . Here and There. . .

I am not able to post a lot about my job because of privacy and things like that but today we had a staff meeting and they introduced a new out reach campaign to get people to sign up to be organ, eye, and tissue donors.   It is called "Be the Hero your Dog Sees."   We have a lot of animal lovers in our company and they decided what better way to reach out to the community, than with their animals.  Basically, if you have dogs you know that your dog thinks the sun rises and sets with their human.  So our campaign wants you to be a hero to everyone by signing up to be an organ, eye and tissue donor because your dog already thinks you are a hero.  If you are interested or would like more information about organ donation if you are in North Carolina go to Donate Life NC, if you are somewhere else you can go to Donate Life America.

#Betheheroyourdogsees

My job is not easy and many nights I cry on my drive home thinking about the sweet folks that gave so much of themselves for someone else.  I think about that year that my sweet hubby was laid off and how God had a plan for our family and more importantly he had a plan for me.  I do love my job and I am very thankful for the opportunity I have been given to make a difference and to be a hero my dog sees. 

Nature Science Center

Spent the morning at the Nature Science Center with the boys.  Sprat did not want to go but once he got there he had fun.  They have some new interactive things fir older kids.  That is where he found his joy. 
They got to experience 78 mph winds in the hurricane simulator and that was cool.  They got to experience the frustration of using a robot to retrieve treasure from the ocean floor.  It was very frustrating.   We saw some cool reptiles and some African Penguins.  I did not know some Penguins lived in warmer climates.  I always thought they lived in the ice and snow.  Mom can learn things too  on these educational trips.
