Pauline Nolan commented on Elle C Juliana's blog post Day five gift of good will"This process does give you strength - I have found. Good for you that you kept the momentum going."
Pauline Nolan commented on Ann's blog post Planning Ahead"How lovely. I'm so glad you bought something for yourself, you deserve it!"
Pauline Nolan posted a blog postDay 2 - about anger
Not surprisingly since I started this round yesterday, I feel less anger today. What a relief! I am sure it will rise again though so here goes.... Today I had a meeting with another manager about my staff being bullied by her staff. She is new to that position and just as keen as me to improve relations between the 2 teams. At the end of our meeting I said what a great meeting it was - and she smiled saying she hoped all of her meetings were that way. It's good to take positive steps like…See More
Joan Concilio Otto commented on Pauline Nolan's blog post New round - about anger"What a good start to your two-fold challenge! I applaud you for realizing how important this change will be and for making such an effort!"
Pauline Nolan posted a blog postNew round - about anger
I am normally a calm and kind person, but lately I have been flying off the handle and saying some pretty inappropriate things. I have to do something about it because it hurts others. So I thought I would start a new round of 29gifts which is 2 fold. Each day to say something encouraging or nice and to channel any anger into something constructive. So today: I have had some friction with one of my colleagues who comes across in a very arrogant manner. However, I think it is partly a…See More

Pauline Nolan commented on Kriston's blog post Day 25, Jan25th~ let's fill another basket!"Isn't it lovely how you just have to ask and people like to respond."
Pauline Nolan commented on CassandraMadeIt's blog post Round 5, Day 3, Something Different like Letting Someone Else Help"I think you drive yourself very hard. Glad to see you let go a bit. I'm always interested in what you have to say no matter how it is phrased."
Pauline Nolan commented on Brittany's blog post January 21st-25th!!"Very sweet - I love the bit about the little child jumping into your arms. The kids must really love being with you."
Kriston commented on Pauline Nolan's blog post Day 18 - The Fruit Van"This is a great gift for all of you for the new year!"
Pauline Nolan posted a blog postDay 18 - The Fruit Van
Wow! I didn't realise it had been so long since I posted. Life intervenes sometimes... Just about all of us at work eat too much and put on weight. We are a telephone counselling service so we don't move around, plus the horrible things we listen to makes us all feel depressed or anxious - so we eat. I am acting in a manager's position here now (so good to get off the phones) and so for the New Year I started a project called Operation Fresh. Everyone is getting into it. We have a tape…See More

Posted on December 5, 2010 at 5:20pm 5 Comments 0 Likes
Yesterday I got up early to drive to the beach for a swim. The day was so beautiful and sparkling. I parked looking out at the water and went to get a ticket from the parking machine - fortunately it is free for 2 hours with my resident sticker. A friend pulled into the next spot. Chrissy is Dutch but has lived here most of her life. She is such a great joy - always whistling and saying encouraging things. She explained that she was going to sit in her car for a while because Bach was…
