And Marie makes 3

Who would ever have thought that someday i would own and manage my own business? I have worked for so many "bad"bosses and the past few years it had become something I would often say to fellow co-workers. "If I am ever in a position to manage employees, the boss has shown me what I don't want to do." No mandatory meetings in a different town without pay. No walking past and not speaking. No taking someone elses word over theirs. No basically treating employees like dirt.

Who would think that for the past year I have owned my own business and had two employees and now three? Paula was there from day 1, Cheri started last summer and just this past week, I hired Marie, who is still training with me this week and will probably be on her own come Thurday.

What alot of changes in my life. I really do need to learn to think before I speak however, I sometimes make too quick of a comback answer and it sounds quite snappy. Did that with a member on Friday and not happy with myself over it at all.

Have a great day!

Celebrating Women Campaign

Today I received a letter from our hospital. It was telling me that I had been nominated by someone who knows me" for the hospitals Celebrating Women Campaign, this was designed to honor women throughout the region whose heart, courage and strength of character are an inspiration to others." It goes on to state that "Peggi has helped keep a lot of people healthier through her work at Curves. She showed great compassion and generosity by adopting a needy family for Christmas. She as also raised money for the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life. She is an inspiration to everyone who comes to Curves." You can imagine how honored I am at this.

This to me means the world. They are having a photographer go into the hospital center and I have to go in for a professional photo shoot and the photos will hang on a Wall of Honor inside the Women's Imaging Center to provide inspiration to women who come into the Center for Care.
