Pajama Day

December 2, 2013

I declare today a pajama day. Unfortunately, I am sitting at my desk in the midst of a wind and rain storm that is wreaking havoc with people’s travel plans. I am safe and warm, but dressed and at work. To paraphrase Mick…You can’t always get what you want.

Want versus Need.

I want to be back at home, in pajamas and in bed. I need to be dressed, focused and at work. I think that sometimes the “wants” get ahead of the “needs” for me. The distinction between those two words is great. I have lots of “wants”. There is much out there to tempt me. Another trip to an exotic place? I want it. New Uggs? I want them. German car? I want it. But the fact of the matter is I only need “the needs”.  Tomorrow I will be spending it with some pretty terrific people. So, I need you to have a wonderful day. Have a wonderful, joyous family holiday. Happy Thanksgiving!
