Wow, I just walked out of the office and went for a long walk. I was pretty upset and I'll save you the politics, but Germany has 7 people who do what I do alone and I keep asking for help and get turned down and only given short term temp help which is useless. Now the Major shareholder is making a surprise visit next week and wants to know why I havent' reduced inventory......!!!! well, shit.....I'm already working nights and this long weekend and a person can only do so much is all I will say here.

So, I got up and left, and I was coming unwound as I walked along the shoreline and I came across two eagle, just a few feet away from me and so close that we were making eye contact. I stopped and let everything inside of me go. I took a deep breath and just stood and admired them and watched as the crows tried to get them to go away. Below as a mother duck and newborn babies swimming around her. I watched them for a while and the babies were so cute. I told the eagles that they better not hurt those babies. After a while, I decided it was time to go back, and now whenever I start to get upset around here, I just picture my eagle buddy, and gain strength. If it gets too rough, I'll just fly away. This is not the only place around here.

It's the little things in life that make a big difference.
