I just have to share this card that came in the mail today from a co-worker. I don't see her everyday, but I speak with her on the phone almost everyday. She is in the same division as I and has been going through the same job stress.
It was one of those musical cards playing "car wash" and on the front it said "life is messy". Here goes: Cheryl, Just wanted you to know how much I admire you for training for the Chicago Marathon. As a runner, I know all the hard work and dedication it takes to prepare for such a great event! Lately, you have had a lot on your plate and you have kept your goal (the big race) in mind. I am very lucky and blessed to have a great partner like you to work with. Thanks for being a great friend to vent to about this "wonderful job"! Keep up the hard training and I can't wait to hear all about the "finish line". Love, Temple
This was such a lift for me...could not have come at a better time. She is a triathlete and for her to "admire me" is awesome. Bottom line folks, is take the time to drop someone a note...it will mean a lot!
