When my sister-in-law Mary Beth and I were co-workers, way way too long ago, we took a one day bus trip to New York City to shop.Of course we went to Macy's Department Store, that was before one was on every corner in the country, and I saw this ugly green hippo in the toy department. At dusk, as we were heading back to the bus, I decided that I had to have that hippo. So there we were running I don't know how many blocks back to Macy's so I could buy my hippo. Mary Beth was so good to me that she even bought a hippo in sympathy too. The terrible thing is, like most things we think don't matter when they should, is I don't know where that hippo is. When times are meaningful keep what's important.
Merry Christmas.
