Quote of the Day

"The quieter you become, the more you can hear" -Ram Dass Ah, sweet quietude. I love this since I love silence and get so stressed when I'm somewhere noisy. Reminds me of a movie where angels were trying to help people, trying to give them messages, but it was so noisy and people had so much on their minds, they couldn't hear the messages. Wishing you all a quiet, peaceful day. Love, Joni who is going to try to go to Wal-Mart, which is not a peaceful place.

Joni, My dad always told me if I'd shut my mouth and listen....I'd hear a lot more! I always hated hearing him say that but now that I have little ones....I understand where he was coming from! Love, Paige

I also like the quote, "It is better to be quiet and be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt." Love, Joni who keeps trying to get in the shower so she can get Wal-Mart over with, but can't stay off the computer...

THATS the one I was thinking of! so true, so TRUE! Good luck at Wal-Mart! Going on a Friday is being brave.. LOL.. I know ours is PACKED on the weekends around here. I have switched to Target, it is right across the street and never crowded and actually they have all their clearance and sale items on the endcaps of every aisle so it is easy to find. I got a George Foreman Grill ( BIG family ones) on sale there for $18.00. It isnt much price difference when you figure up the time involved and the cost of gas, with my Wal- Mart being on the other side of town from me. Id rather pay a few pennies more than fight the traffic and fight the crowds. Besides, STARBUCKS is inside Target...LOL.. I could go for a Thai Chi Frappacino about now..

So true JonI! My job gets CRAZY this time of the month and sometimes I go sit in the bathroom to "escape" all the noise.....just to get away for a few minutes!!! Yesterday, at about 6:00, I had 8 people standing around my desk with 8 different issues that were all "priorities".....problems needing to be resolved ASAP. I got up, went out into the hallway and just stood there for a few. One of my Loan Officers stuck his head out the door and looked at me like "are you crazy lady?"......I just stuck my hand up. He shut the door and left me the hell alone!! Now, to just make it through today Happy Walmarting, Kim
