Your Own Little Hammock in the Shade
The workday has ended and it's finally time for you to relax. You have spent all day, all week, all month making others happy and entertaining them. You may be running out of fuel about now, so come on in and get refreshed. Meet old friends and make some new ones. Share ideas, pet peeves, thoughts, and more. Come here to find ways to turn off the idea flow for a few minutes so you can focus on taking care of yourself. This is your place.
Glad To See You Here
Pull Up A Chair...
Hi there! This is my first Squidoo Lens so please be kind. I am experimenting here and don't quite know what I am doing.
My purpose here is to call attention to my Activity Director Blog at http://theactivitydirector.blogspot.com , so please, once you are finished checking out this lens, go take a look at the blog. It is new, but already filling up with ideas for you to use on your job. My goal for the blog and this lens is to start an online community for activity directors to gather and have some fun, maybe blow off a little steam, get some brainstorming going if you want to, or just kick back and relax. Bring your favorite ideas along to share. Tell us all about the things that didn't work and why. Or just say hello and see what everyone else has to say. It's your space...so enjoy it.
