Default Brightening up the work day

Hi,

For those of you in the UK who have stressful or soul-destroying jobs, here's a top tip:

1. Order yourself one or two or more of these.
2. Have them delivered to the office.
3. When they arrive, wait till no one's looking, then open the parcel and give one of them a squeeze.

It certainly did wonders for my morning!

I don't have a soul-destroying job (I quit that one!) but I DO have a Mom who would very much love these things! Thanks for the link!
I'm awesome. Wanna know more? Check out my blog, "Just Frances".

I got DH the pochard, the oystercatcher and the tufted duck for Valentine's Day. I know not everyone would consider that a good Valentine's gift, but fortunately he does!

The tufted duck has especially good co-worker-startling potential.

I think I will get some of the garden birds for my new bird table! (see here)
Can you put a smile back on - all these different faces
Of all these people from - such different places
And if you can succeed - what then will you achieve
