Speaking with my webmaster, Char at htttp://www.casualkeystrokes.com, last night. She informed me of a new thing called a Blog Carnival. It’s a way to link blogs that have a similar topic, event, or thoughts on a pre-appointed discussion topic. This week’s topic is what animal you think you may have been in another life. Check out the other blogs from Char’s site to see what other new things and other animals are out there. The idea came from another great site called http://MomGadget.com. There is also a forum on the site for work at home moms – chalk full of tips and tidbits.

I would have to say I think I was a dolphin because of their playful nature, agility in water, ability to have fun and take risks at the same time by swimming in front of boat bows and their nature to interact with humans as well as their own pack. They are grace and energy in motion.

Researchers have long praised the ability of animals and pets to calm us down and bring out the best in us. Many employers are now inviting pets to work and have found a rise in productivity, morale and a decrease in stress. Workers have said they would be more willing to work longer hours if their pets were with them at work.

Check out Matt Weinstein’s book Work Like Your Dog – it’s a good read. Now it’s off to take my Cairn Terrier, Madison out for a walk. She’s been recovering from a sprained paw, surgery to remove melanoma’s and the passing of her best buddy, my mom’s dog, Brandi. It’s been a tought week and we both need a walk in the park.

Cheers….and woof!
