We call our 1-y-o "The White Tornado".  He can wreck a home in 2 minutes flat!

Rich - I can`t believe nobody from SuN headquarters is on here with hurt feelings from you calling them jerks.  

Should we be considered cube farmers or cube crops?  I suppose the business managers would be the cube farmers.

I have one foot in the entrepreneurial world, and one foot in the cubicle.  I have been told by my business advisor that I have chosen the toughest road to travel. 

Thanks Rich.  I`ve been dancing to this tune for many years, and in the last 12 months have made a lot of progress to dance my way out of my cubicle. 

Setting goals and networking like mad have been two things that have really pushed me toward the door and into my home office!

My staff:
"I have an idea!" would be my 4.5-y-o. This usually ends with "Let`s go to Raceway Park to see race cars and then to Target to buy me race cars."
"Runner-Awayer" would be my 1.5-y-o, or "White Tornado" as I mentioned before.
"Mr. Negativity" would be my husband`s nickname. I`m always calling him on his lack of optimism. He always thinks the worst so that he isn`t disappointed - and it drives me nuts! I love him to bits though.
"Oh no.." would be my assistant, Greg. He is diabetic and when his blood sugar is messed up he gets spacey and screws up a lot. Luckily, it`s usually minor. He`s a great guy though and really helps me out!
"I need a man" would be my friend and sometimes helper, Christine. She would have one in an instant if she wasn`t so shy around people she doesn`t know.
"Cookie Please" would be our dog, Ticket. She`s getting quite plump.

I have been blessed with: "Cookie please" (siberian husky); "Sunshine" (coworker who I have only seen down once in the past two years); "That was easy" (or at least the office secretary makes multitasking look easy); "Realize the moment and make it count" (coworker); and "Apple of my eye" (teenager).
