I hope everyone is having a good 2010 so far and I wanted to apologize to all my blog readers for the lack of updates and new content. When my laptop hard drive decided to give up the ghost on Christmas Eve I was initially very frustrated by it, but it actually ended up being a nice break after going non-stop around the holidays. What was originally going to be a short break while I ordered a new HD turned into almost a month, as I realized how much I was enjoying being away from my computer for awhile.
After taking a pause from it all I feel refreshed and ready to start some new projects in 2010. I have 60 days left in Project 365 and I’m going to finish it out beginning next week. I know technically it has become like Project 400 with “my pause”, but that’s the upside of it being your project… you can change the rules.
I’m sorry for the lack of updates and interesting links lately. With some serious illnesses in my extended family and a lot of projects on my plate, I haven’t had much time to devote to eye4media. I promise when things settle down a little bit, I will be back with lots of creative goodness. Thanks for sticking with me!
Is it just me or have you noticed that service in restaurants has been stellar lately? Just in the last few weeks I have 3 great service experiences. Could it be due to the fact that people aren’t eating out as much, so the servers are less stressed and can show more personal attention? Or is it that restaurants are trying harder to keep customers in this tough economy and are stepping it up a notch? Have you experienced this? What do you think?
I apologize for not posting anything this week, but work has been crazy. At work I’ve been preparing for a special vision message and the start of a new series the week after, plus getting ready for the offices being closed. My life away from work has been just as busy with volunteer projects, meetings and Christmas parties. Hang in there with me and I will be catching up on posts this weekend.
I came across this video about a month ago and loved the concept, execution and movement behind it. I encourage you to visit Advent Conspiracy and find out how you can become involved. I know God has been stirring me lately to always be “about His business” and become more focused on how I can serve instead of being served. What better time of year, when we are celebrating the greatest gift ever given, to reflect on how we can give back to those who are in need.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I know I did! It is my favorite holiday of the year because of the food, the time with family & friends and it being the start of the Christmas season.
I always look forward to watching my Detroit Lions play every Thanksgiving, but this year was an exception. I had a feeling I shouldn’t watch the game after such a dismal start to the season (0-12) and I’m so glad I didn’t. They got pounded by the Titans. Oh, well there is always next season…Seems like I have been saying that since Barry Sanders retired.
I love the above photo of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in the early 1930’s. I found it on on Swapatorium.
I’m experiencing a little R & R this next week away from all computers and cells. I’ll shall return refreshed and with eye candy for you. Hope everyone has a great week!

Who didn’t love the 80’s? Smurfs were all the rage, Reagan was in office, the Cosby show was in primetime, and I ruled at Centipede. If you are like me and just little nostaglic about the decade, check out this amazing site with over 1,000 music videos and classic games from the 80’s. Good stuff.
This chair from Qayot has a remarkable resemblance to a certain 1980’s video game, don’t you think? I wonder how long these will be available before Namco is on their case.
