Fanatical Training

The idea of a week long company orientation would make most of us yawn.  But Rackspace, a web hosting company in San Antonio, puts one on that is anything but boring. Check it out here.

What do you think... fun or a plain waste of time?

I hope you have a fanatical week!  I'm here if you need anything.

Irene

New Goals

As we are starting the New Year 2013, I've been thinking about goals.  Every year, millions of people sit down and carefully choose where they want to go in life and how they're going to get there.

Take Jim Layton, for example.  His list just got a new checkmark, but you'll never guess what for, even though 649 other people were right there with him.  You can find out here.

As you're thinking about what you want to accomplish next year, please remember that I'm always honored when someone trusts me to help them achieve an important goal.  If I can help you in any way, please just let me know.

Best,
Irene

Yuck, Ouch Inspections!


I just saw this sad article about a woman in Canada who bought a million dollar home.  She thought that having an architect and engineer walk through the home would be enough to verify that it was safe for habitation, so she didn't get a home inspection.  After closing, she discovered that the walls were totally and completely infested with mice.  Yuck!
Worse still... the damage from their droppings and urine is so severe that the house has to be gutted.
Enough said, right?  Here's a link to the article - don't be shy if I can help you with anything!
Best,
Irene
