It’s that time of year again… holiday spirit, Christmas tree’s and lights. I love this time of year and the goodwill that spreads around. Busy season with many holiday parties, gatherings and bell ringing. I love bell ringing! I love you kids!

Today I’m in Oshkosh and recording on my iPhone. I have been listening to Steve Jobs book called iCon and the topic of learning from mistakes has come up. How would society be if we took a page from this book and actually learned from our mistakes.

You never know! You just never know when or where you will make a difference. I had to DJ a young adult dance this weekend at church. I didn’t want to do it, but I did it anyways and I had the BEST opportunity to leaved a mark.

I had the best chat with an old friend and I know I touched his life. He certainly touched mine. I guess the opportunity waits for no one…

If you needed help, would you ask? A person named Tony knocked at my door last night, saying he was homeless and asked for a warm sweater or coat.

What would you do in that situation? Would you give him a warm coat or sweater? I know how I responded.. how would you?

What a wonderful weekend we had. The Clifford’s went to Quarry Quest this year and boy was it AWESOME!!! So well done. So many great volunteers. So many things to see and do. Emma and Drew just had such a blast. THANK YOU all who made that event special

Today is the opening of the 2011-12 NFL Season and the Super Bowl champs city gets to host the party of all parties! Welcome to Green Bay Wisconsin and look at the red carpet the NFL has rolled out for the rest of the world. Lambeau Field is the show place for the rest of the world tonight! ALL EYES ON GREEN BAY…well those that are not tuned into the Presidents speech LOL… Hello Timing!

Today I come to you just outside the gates of the free concert. The excitement is so thick you can cut it with a knife.

Well a new school year is upon us and we are ready to rock this year. Tommy in 6th grade, Clara in 7th and Madeline a Junior. WOW how fast it happens!!

I’m so glad to be a part of their growth process and watch them mature. Some huge storms tear through the area.

Tommy visits the photography studio of David E. Jackson and they talk kids, work and passion. David has a zest for life as well as a photographic eye second to none. Watch out world… David is coming.

See all his magic at his website davidejackson.com/

I’m helping Jody with her DVD collection and making backup copies for her soon to be ex husband. As i’m making dups it really hit me how sad it is that their entire 8 year marriage can be boiled down to 34 DVD’s worth of memories. Is this how we want to be remembered? I want it to be so much more… What do you want your legacy to be?

Today I received a package from NTI Network Technologies Inc and I’m stunned at the amazing customer experience I found when I opened the box.  The sent a personally signed thank you card. WOW!!! This is how you do customer service!! This is how you differentiate yourself from the competition.

I love this so much… GREAT JOB NTI
