    I love Thomas Edison. Con Edison, not so much…

    What always astounds me the most is when I look back on workload situations that used to astound me, but with experience, we can continually strive toward bigger and better things.

      I agree. Experience is a great teacher. :)

    It is so true Cheryl and often the only thing standing in our way is ourselves.

      That is so true. Sometimes I need to step aside and get out of my own way. LOL

    Love that one Cheryl!! And it's true…

    Was thinking of applying for a short assignment on a Swedish naval ship outside Somalia trying to stop Somali pirates. Catch is you needed to be a good shot and have military training. But, as Edison said, I would have been capable of that. Catch is the Swedish navy would not have trained me…and since I have never even held a gun….

    But it would have been fun wouldn't it….

      I would have loved to have seen you in that role! You would have been great. Shoot first, ask questions later. :)
