A Few Good Things


There were a few good things about the workshop I attended today.  To begin with, I got to learn all about creating books using the program iBook Author.  Widget was the word of the day- I learned all about a few different ones and how they can make my own iBook come alive.  I also ran into a former colleague, one that I really like but never see, and was able to catch up with her life.  After the workshop was over our little group walked down the street and went out to lunch- just like many business people do every day.  Most days I eat while working at my desk.  Having food brought to me and talking with colleagues, all while eating an endless supply of chips and salsa, was a treat. And if all that wasn’t enough, I was back home about two hours earlier than usual.  Thanks to the gift of time I was able to join my cat on the couch for an afternoon nap without feeling too guilty.

  1. What a lovely day! Spending productive and unrushed time with colleagues is such a gift. When accompanied by an endless supply of chips and salsa, it's even better! Thanks for sharing.

  2. I loved having days like that. The thought of having a lunch at a restaurant and not being rushed with a half hour to eat. And the thought of taking a nap with my cat(s) would be fantastic. I am retired now...so I have time to enjoy these things...but when I was teaching...ah...a day like that on a week day was heaven. Jackie http://familytrove.blogspot.com/
