This is a photo of a tree that was split in last week's thunderstorm. We are having a marvelous summer so far, my son K is officially on summer holidays starting today and has found a job starting on Monday after our long Canada Day weekend! How neat is that! I hope it goes well for him, it will be his first paid job.
I read a couple of interesting articles in the newspaper recently. The news has been so depressing lately, this one story is actually about a recent shooting in the city, but one of the survivors, a 13 year old boy and his family have surprisingly positive things to say about the whole incident. Have a read here and see if you agree with me that it's a wonderful story.
The other story is about Mabel's Labels at Walmart Canada. These mompreneurs have a successful product through a lot of hard work. It's a textbook marketing strategy.
Thanks for the articles. They were interesting. Incredible that the boy survived the shooting and surgery. And I am glad those women have been able to expand their business and hire 40 employees.
ReplyDeleteGlad that boy survived. I don't take the newspaper any more, it got too expensive, had too much bad news, and not enough local news, so now I only read the free papers that come once a week. Valerie
