Calling in sick

We've all had trouble with our animals, but I don't think anyone can top this one:

Calling in sick to work makes me uncomfortable. No matter how legitimate my excuse,
I always get the feeling that my boss thinks I'm lying.

On one recent occasion, I had a valid reason but lied anyway, because the truth was just too darned humiliating.
I simply mentioned that I had sustained a head injury, and I hoped I would feel up to coming in the next day.
By then, I reasoned, I could think up a doozy to explain the bandage on the top of my head.
The accident occurred mainly because I had given in to my wife's wishes to adopt a cute little kitty.
Initially, the new acquisition was no problem.

Moving to Southfields

So the time is coming to me moving into my new place, I am moving to Southfields. Yippee

So for all of you in Earlsvegas that have missed me I will be near you again. I just can not wait to get all set up and into a regular routine for work, gym and life.

I have also found a new gym partner in the form of a Lolo. We will have to see what form he is in but will get him up to shape. haha.

well I have to go pack now.

Happy moving time.. Over and out

Leaders

Keep in mind that you are not always going to be technically perfect as an athlete, person, or leader. But if others admire you and believe in you because of how you practice, train, act, and perform, THEY WILL FOLLOW YOU.

Vision Boards

So seeing that 2012 is all about finding myself and new years resolutions, I have been told to look into Vision Boards. Now I have not heard of this before but it is similar to writing a list of things that you want to accomplish. The difference is that it is visual. The idea behind this is that when you are surround yourself with images of who you want to become, what you want to have, where you want to live, or where you want to vacation, your life changes to match those images and those desires.

So this is my next project. I want my own vision board and my own desires and wants....

So this is what I will be doing this weekend. I will keep you posted with my progress and also when it is done I will let you have a peek.

2012 - The year of Scabenga

First off I would like to wish everyone a happy new year and I hope it will be a good one for one and all.

So what does 2012 have in store for me. Well I must say it did start off very well with the welcoming of the year in Victoria Falls (Falls Fest). What a weekend I must say. I did have a slight problem with my plans when I was coming back to the UK. I had to find a new place to live and also a new job, which left me a little worried to say the least and with the help of some wonderful people I have begun my journey...

So I have found a new place to live in Southfields which I will be moving into at the end of January. I too have found a great opportunity with SafeCard. So I will be working for myself in essence but it will provide me a massive platform to grow and enjoy 2012.

So what do I want to do this year??? I have so many ideas

Singapore Airlines

Mother and her young inquisitive son were flying Singapore Airlines from Singapore to Sydney .

The son (who had been looking out the window) turned to his mother and asked, 'If dogs have baby dogs and cats have baby cats, why don't planes have baby planes???? '
The mother (who couldn't think of an answer) told her son to ask the pretty flight attendant.
So the boy dutifully asked the flight attendant, 'If dogs have baby dogs and cats have baby cats, why don't planes have baby planes?'

The flight attendant responded, 'Did your mother tell you to ask me that?' The little boy admitted that she did.

Well, then, tell your mother that there are no baby planes because Singapore Airlines always pulls out on time.

“Now, let your mother explain that to you.”!!!
