1.29.2011: How lucky and fortunate I am - It's so easy to forget how good things are when we live in the little bubbles that we do.
1.28.2011: The guy at UPS - He was so friendly in our 30 second interaction, and just that took all the tension out of me.
1.27.2011: Cayman and Jackson - Coming home is awesome when you have two friends who are always happy to see you.
1.26.2011: Christine - I think she's a lot of the reason why I could stay in Cincinnati forever.
1.25.2011: Being Original - I somehow manage to always have an answer that no one has ever given before.
1.24.2011: Flying in the night before - Everyone who flew in this morning on the 6 am flight had delays.
1.23.2011: Volunteering - I'm really excited to get back into serving breakfast at the Drop Inn Center and hopefully starting spending Sundays at the Lindner Center of Hope as well! It makes life a little more meaningful.
1.22.2011: Being part of organizations that people have an irrational devotion to: I met a Berkeley MBA student today, and his fiance went to Michigan. He was making fun of her and me for our love for Michigan football. I've realized that it's important to me to be a part of something great whether it's a school, a job, a non-profit, an activity, or even a group of brand loyalists. Here are just a few of mine: Michigan, P&G, Kellogg, Tide, Charmin, marathons, Cervelo, VW, J. Crew.
1.21.2011: Having an opinion - I never have a problem voicing my opinion at work. I'm not sure where it came from, but I realize how many people are afraid to do so.
1.20.2011: Eating lunch out - It feels great every time we go out to lunch because it's like a mini-vacation getaway. When we eat in the cafeteria, I always am rushing to get back to my desk.
1.19.2011: Honesty - Whenever I recruit, I'm always honest with the entire picture. I think it's really important to paint a realistic picture, not just all the incredible stuff.
1.18.2011: P&G Benefits - I think I just might have some of the best benefits in the country. I've never really realized how good they are until now.
1.17.2011: Brad at Courtesy Automotive Auto Body - He is one of the nicest guys and so unbelievably helpful. And on top of all that, he does some excellent work for a decent price!
1.16.2011: Stacey - The handful of friends that I still talk to from college are some of my favorites. Stacey is for sure one of them, and so good to see her at brunch!
1.15.2011: Meghan - She's always been my big sister and has such a good perspective on things. So fun to catch up!
1.14.2011: Jacques - He gave me real feedback after our meeting with Scott. He pushes me to be better every day.
1.13.2011: The God of Luck - Helping me get to Chicago safely and without any speeding tickets.
1.12.2011: Companies that want to partner with P&G - We have amazing partnership with so many top companies. At our trainings, we have CMOs and leaders from all over the country. Today, Microsoft flew in to share with us some awesome things that can be done with Kinect. I'm almost tempted to buy one.
1.11.2011: Growing up driving in snow - People in Cincinnati cannot drive in the snow! Even with just a little that doesn't even stick on the ground. Growing up in Cleveland and Michigan made me learn to feel when my tires are slipping, when I need to slow down, how to get out when I'm stuck in a bank of snow, and much more!
1.10.2011: CLigz - She is an outstanding person as seen today at the All Employee Update, but the best part is she's my friend.
1.9.2011: Chase Ultimate Rewards - I save them for a rainy day, and I've apparently built up $600 worth.
1.8.2011: Graduating from school - I'm really done! This was the first weekend where I actually didn't have school and everyone else did. I was a normal 26 year old.
1.7.2011: Alexa - She writes the best thank you notes.
1.6.2011: Jacques - He totally has my back without a doubt. It's really sad that someone as an AD is so insecure that she sends nasty-grams to an ABM's manager. I put on my smile and take comfort in knowing that she creates her own career and knowing she feels threatened because of what I've accomplished in my time.
1.5.2011: Two seats to myself on flights - To and from Chicago, I had two seats just for me!
1.4.2011: Loving my job - The morning was really tough, but by the end of the day, I was back into the groove because I love working on Charmin!
1.3.2011: P&G Paid Holidays - I don't think there's another company out there with more paid holidays. We had the day off when no one else did!
1.2.2011: Tim - We always have the best conversations when we catch up. He's one of my two best friends from high school, and I'm so glad he's still in my life.
1.1.2011: Friends - I think I've figured out that friends become the family you need to fill in when your family isn't close by.
