The Shredder!

We've got a shedder! We've got a shredder! Well I guess you could take this two ways...and according to this blog you don't know about either so that's okay. You see, Smoothie King has a smoothie named "The Shredder" and I have a shredder in my office. I am particularly excited this moment about the shredder in my office. No more law suits for me...no sir, because I have a shredder for all the sensitive information. (just kidding about the law suits...We've not had any [praise the Lord]). I can tell you about the Smoothie King smoothie named "The Shredder" upon request. However, right now I thought it would be smart to go over some paper shredder safety tips...1) Never allow children to operate paper shredders. Young children are interested in imitating adult activities. Paper shredder can pull children's fingers into the shredder mechanism. 2) Do not place hands or fingers in the shredder. 3) Do not operate a paper shredder while wearing loose fitting clothing that may enter the shredder. 4) If wearing a tie or long necklace, use caution to keep these items away from the shredder.

I've shredded three papers already this morning and narrowly avoided a trip to the ER...BE CAREFUL!!

P.S. If you need any paper shredding done...just let me know and I can hook you up. I'll even provide training and the correct protective wear.

So I was on my way to...

Smoothie King for work just yesterday, thinking about which smoothie I would make more of that day...Strawberry Kiwi Breeze or the Cherry Picker (yes welcome to my world) and boom it hit me. Imagine what it would be like if I lived an entire day (just the awake hrs. [not even 24 consecutive] as if God, the God of the bible, the Creator of the universe, were always my one and only God. Meditating on His word / constantly in prayer / living life as if I remember all of Gods promises to His children / continually running thru His attributes and knowing that it is possible for me to develop them in me. How much easier everything would be - how my perspective and attitude would change - how every relationship with others would change! Taking a day, minute by minute, hour by hour and concentrating on Christ making the best decisions I can make. Man how awesome that would be! There are so many benefits that this blog would become as long as "the driving to IU from West Lafayette in my old 82 Honda" to express them all. Taking a day at Christ's pace and not keeping up with...or going with the flow of... So that is a goal for me now...you try it as well and let me know how it works for you. Imagine EVERYDAY - Until Christ returns or He calls you home

Just Because

I was thinking this past weekend (don't laugh it's true)...and this is what I came up with... Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Just because you want to doesn't mean you should. Just because you don't want to doesn't mean you shouldn't. Ouch! That makes my brain hurt...but it's as true as we are sinners.

MLKJ Day brings with it much rejoice!! A very small part of this rejoice includes the fact than the Vit-a-mix people got their heads out of their blender bowls and sent us the right parts. We're making smoothies like nobodies business...wait, I guess it is our business...well you know what I mean. I hope all is well with you. By the way...Pink is my favorite color.

So get this...

I ordered some replacement parts for our vit-a-mix blenders. I ordered 4 blade assemblies and 4 new counter gaskets, needless to say I was super excited to get the shippment. It came in today and they shipped me 5 drive sockets instead. The packing slip even indicated that what I ordered was, what they had shipped but that wasn't the case. The problem should be solved however...I called them and they said they would ship me out the correct items right away.

I don't know what your entry knowledge is of blender parts but, there is no way you could mistake one order for the other. The really funny thing is...I'm guessing there is some guy out there that ordered 5 new drive sockets and got 4 each of the blade assemblies and counter gaskets...wonder what he's blogging about?
