Catching Up

Am again shocked at how quickly time passes.  How could it have been July 19th since my last post?  Between all the real work that consumes a day, getting the adults (who used to be my little ones) settled back in their various locales after the summer and preparing for lots of meetings and presentations, posting just keeps getting pushed further and further back.
While this was a very busy summer, it was also a fulfilling one.  The talent in our expanded department continues to be recognized with formal awards and lovely notes that come from clients. We all seem to be pushing ourselves to do even more in these times of restricted resources and what is being produced continues to be top notch. 
Over the last couple of days I have been consumed by postings from our head of Web Services who is keeping us apprised of a situation involving some of our websites.  What has intrigued me is not only what has happened, but the technical language that is way over my head and explained in such a way that I can actually follow what is happening.  Again, I am so thankful for the talent we have inhouse.  Several of our team members never cease to amaze me with their expansive knowledge of the world of social media and how we can appropriately apply it to meet our goals. I remember the first time I saw a QR code in a magazine and wondered why the editor had not 'caught' the ink smudge.  I've come a long way baby!
So, just a short note to say thanks to everyone for all you do -- from helping kids understand the importance of nutrition to helping older adults stay active and fit -- and everything in between,, you are an important and valued member of our organization.
