Of course that usually doesnt happen at work so I take about an hour of my home time, but it is well worth it the next day. I finally had a chance to sit down and read your book over the holiday. I find the best time to think about what I need is when I have a nice quiet time to do that. Excellent material!

Of course there will come a time when questions about certain things will not have to be asked as it is hoped the new hire will catch on to the office procedures and their initiative will kick in and they will take on these tasks on their own, but in the beginning please ask. I dont see it as a weakness, but as a strength. Excellent material!

Of course the simple solution would be to have the same password for every aspect of your life, but nope that doesn’t work. Of course even if the system hadnt crashed, I would have needed to know my server and Outlook password so I could get into my sub-folder with all my passwords? But they refuse to help me out.

I am planning a local fundraiser to help the family with the costs on November 15th, but of course it will be in Ottawa, Canada and I know most of you are elsewhere. In the meantime, I have decided to donate the royalties on any sales of my book to the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. My book is currently available on Amazon.

Of course, the reason could have been that I was up all night with a sick child or wasnt feeling well myself or I just had an argument with my spouse and was still stewing about it. I was actually just reading a chapter of the book "The Art of Extreme Self-Care" by Cheryl Richardson which speaks to some of this.

They had booked the space for November 8th. I knew we were going to go back to that city the next year so negotiated with the hotel that if I booked the next event at their venue would they waive the cancellation fee. If you are not sure of the number of people who will be booking, then give them a rough estimate.

It is usually a business I am interested in and I want to know when new courses or products are offered. I still get some flyers by regular mail and I do still appreciate them when it is a menu from a fast-food restaurant, money-back coupons or notices of courses in my area, but otherwise I throw them in the recycle bin.
