Finding Our Identity 
I am a proud life-long resident of Columbus, Ohio or "COWlumbus"; a nickname based on the fact that Ohio is more country mouse than city mouse. Columbus is unique in its blend of residents and history make it an important place on the map. ( Columbus discovered Wendy's Dave Thomas, two Peter Eisenmen designed buildings--not to mention one of the top library systems in the country.)

Ohio is in a rough time in the workforce---economic development arenas and if we can embrace our "county city cool" then a BIG MOO just might help us in our development.


It is only fitting to stop by Marie's Cows for a display of cool cows.

Fast Company Now
I do not wish there were more hours in a day--how many more is enough? There are always enough hours to be productive and spend a few minutes living in the present moment. ( a friend told me she heard that most of us spend less than 11% of the day in the moment.)

Fast Company Now does a interesting piece on the pace and pain of our lives. I am personally comforted that multitasking is not a cognitive reality. I can move to and fro between tasks at a rapid rate , doing more than one at a time does not work. (not very well.)

"It's Good Work If you can get it"
Anyone hear that anymore? If not there are a variety of versions such as "that's why they call it work!" Even TGIF says a great deal about our collective feelings about how we spend a good half of our time on the planet.
Finding "good work"--that is meaningful and pays the house note is not easy for many people.

On the other hand I included the link below to provide a fresh example of what is possible.
