What I'm Doing Today

It's the holiday weekend and I wish you a pleasant one. May was thankfully a busier than expected month for Dan Pelley Educational Services (DPES) and with June nearly fully booked, I need to split my time this weekend between DPES, things to do around the home, and some holiday time as well.

I began in March upgrading the supervision series books and four of the five have been completed. These four now require double-sided printing in order to fit comfortably in our standard binder spline size. Double-sided printing is of course ecologically friendly and I'm glad to do it. The books for the June programs are here now and I may even bind a few today to see what they look like.

As many of you know, I am a do-it-yourselfer so this weekend also involves installing a new valving system on the the swimming pool. The grandchildren love it, as do their mommies and my wife (who the grandchildren call "Gigi)". Although not a big enthusiast, I do like the pool at the end of a hot day when the crowd has gone. I set two cold ones (never more, never less) at the edge of the pool where I can stand with water up to my shoulders and stay cool in-between dives off the board.

Just to keep you posted, "Managing for Results" will be running in Lincoln, RI starting Thursday June 4. The class limit is twenty people and there are five seats left if you are interested. At last check, "Building High Performance Teams" at QVCC in Danielson, CT starting Tuesday June 2 in the morning is full. "Leadership Skills" at QVCC starting on the same day in the afternoon may have seats available. You can register on-line for "Managing For Results" or "Leadership Skills" by clicking here to visit my website. "Proactive Leadership" in Lincoln starting Tuesday July 21 also has two people registered although the program is not yet "officially" open for registrations.

Well it is Saturday so off I go. Hope you and yours enjoy whatever you are doing on this holiday weekend.
