A little nervous about being part of the team presenting to Upper Mgmt tomorrow.
Networking is a gift.Like prayer, you are taking time and sharing yourself to the benefit if someone else.
AIGA Article on 'Art Vs. Design' →
My opinion is that design is calculated to some extent and should be. To be cost efficient, it has to have defined formulae. I work in an industry with many technical designers and it is like working with a group of stereotypical cheerleaders trying to become homecoming queen. There is so much politics, because they want to be artists and unique, rather than design engineers. Design can have...
A great story from the AIGA Website
My own first time By Steff Geissbuhler, Chermayeff & Geismar Inc. So there I was, standing in the large lobby of the Marketing and Promotion Department of J.R.Geigy (now Novartis) Pharmaceutical Corporation in Basel, Switzerland, awaiting the arrival of Max Schmid, the head of the then-famous design department. The receptionist asked me to wait for Mr. Schmid who would come down by elevator to...
I was fortunate enough to have a great conversation with a director named King Hollis, also.
If you even remotely enjoy Bowling For Soup…their new DVD ‘Live and Very Attractive’ is a good buy. The guys were cool to meet, also.

Helen Hunt did an excellent job on ‘Then She Found Me’
New ACADE 2008 is very cool.
Hopes to get to see Helen Hunt’s “Then She Found Me” on Thursday night, in Dallas. I find out later, today.
Island Dog - Not fair!
I am a woman of ideas and CAD….but look at all my techies teaching me stuff.
Looking for the actual file name of the CPU Meter on the Vista Gadgets.
Keeping my mind on what is going right, before tallying what I think could be changed. Be a part of the solution, not the problem :-)
Playing the Office Cubicle Mole Pop-Up game. I look like a prairie dog scoping the horizon for danger.
While I am not a fan of Vista, yet…I do love the Parental Controls Set-Up. Nice Job, MS.
Have found the perfect signature picture for Unbound World!
Looking forward to working with ACADE ‘08 and Acrobat Pro
Between Engineering changes and a soon-to-be 4 year old….I need my rest.
State Farm, Spencer.
I just finished my annual Siemens Compliance Brief.
I wonder if CR8V (College) KID is too much of a strench or just being inclusive.
Prayer & Patience with Faith & Planning
At first, I became anxious. My web consultant doesn’t work full-time for me. I had not heard from him in a few days and I was wondering what was happening. I trusted him, so it was not like I thought he was bailing on me. I trusted him with this project for a reason. I am happy to have him put his business information on my site. People should know he did this. At church tonight, we discussed...
AHAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! The joys of engineering change.
Coming Soon Briefs are up on CR8V-KID.com and UnboundWorld.com
Unbound
I am slowly sharing my fears and dreams. This is a major part of living in an Unbound World. I still have some secrets, but give me time. Not everyone is ready for everything, yet.
Playing Desk Jockey. Lots to be done!

'Salida Means Service' in my Unbound World
I have to tell you about Salida, Colorado. It was one of 4 locales I slept in, over the 2007 Holiday season. Pre-Christmas was in Orlando and Charleston with a Christmas day flight home to Dallas. Post Christmas and New Years was in Salida. The people of Salida live in an Unbound World. Salida has got to be the most customer service oriented town I have been to. It over shadows any other...

Growing Up in the Shadow of the Fish and the Rat
This statement can be made by both personal and commercial entities. I, as a personal entity, was born in Sarasota to a single mom from North Port. For those who are asking, that is north of Port Charlotte, which is north of Punta Gorda, which is north of Fort Myers. Okay, I could go on and on until I got to the Keys. This is all 1-2 hours south of Tampa on the Florida Gulf Coast. Ten years and...

Are You Living In An Unbound World?
Earlier this week, I changed my MySpace display name to AJ Unbound. That day, a comment was left on my Comments Column asking what that meant. Their impression was clearly from an uncomfortable position. Defining ‘An Unbound World’ is one of those totally subjective definitions. It is only what you feel it is. My Unbound World may never work for someone else. It took me a long time to...

Not At This Address
I was going through my email and found a delivery that was misdirected. It was actually a series of emails to guide someone to write the below paragraph. I cleaned up the text but the content remained the same. Introduction: Struggling -what a difficult word. Hebrews 12:4 speaks of the “struggle against sin.” I feel so inadequate because God has to forgive me of the same sins over...

Now that you found the needle, do you have the...
I realized in a previous 10-year learning experience that patience is a daily effort. Whether we are talking about my first marriage or my first self-employment venture, remains to be seen as I go along. I have made the commitment to blog daily for the next year. Don’t get discouraged, I plan to have marked improvement. If my writing suddenly gets better, it is because I have enlisted the...

Grand Opening TBD. Stay Tuned. Soon, we will have a brief description of our pending site, on its home page. Unbound World will feature initiatives that we (and we hope you) are passionate about. These will include, but may not be limited to: Project Restore Customer Service will be more than a complaint board. The drive will be to restore the relationships between customers and businesses....
