TommyLog – What Makes You Happy?

What makes you happy? What makes you happiest? Are you the type of person that does stuff that makes you sad or what makes you mad. Or do you only do things to make you happy?

Drew loves angry birds– that makes him happy. Emma loves to draw and to do art stuff, which makes her happy. Tommy loves Minecraft and love solving those puzzles and loves learning its tools. Clara loves to dance. Madeline loves to cook. I love solving problems and love doing things for others.

There are so many people who complain in life. So many people were just not happy. Why do you waste your time and do things that don’t make you happy. If you’re not happy in this situation that you’re in, change.

Stop complaining and do something about it.

TommyLog – Emma Had a Down Day

Emma this week had a down day. In her first grade room they have a traffic light system for tracking behavior. Each day they start on green, ready to learn. If they’re exceptional it goes up to blue. If they’re having a rough day it goes to Orange, and if it gets worse than that it goes to red which means I have to talk to parents.

Emma had an orange day. When Emma saw her kindergarten teacher Mr. Seelig she told Mr. Seelig about her bad day. Mr. Seelig is so sweet and so kind and just knows exactly how to treat Emma and what Emma needs. Mr. Seelig left the best post-it note on Emma’s desk giving her encouragement and wishing her well. We love Mr. Seelig. He is a true educator and loves kids to the core.

Emma have a good day, I LOVE YOU!

TommyLog TECH – LG Tone+ #VZWBuzz

OK kids, Tommy here and this time I have the new LG Tone+ Bluetooth headset to talk about.  I really love this product. The headset is lightweight, super easy-to-use and just works. The things darn near bulletproof to setup and use. Once you get past the crappy manual with its super small reverse type, it’s an awesome product.

The LG Tone+ headset is totally one hundred percent Tommy approved!

For more information, Here’s a link to the LG Tone+ on the Verizon website. http://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/lg-tone-bluetooth-stereo-headset-black/

TommyLog – Hot Lunch

Today I am joined by Emma and we are going to talk about school lunches,  or as Emma like to say hot lunch. Just like when I went to school there is a schedule of when the best hot lunches will be served. Mr. Seelig, Emma’s kindergarten teacher, used to make a huge deal about the day they would serve hot dogs. He called it “wiener Wednesday”. They would march in the classroom and march up the up and down the hallways singing about hotdogs and wieners and making a big deal about it. So Emma loves to have hot lunch.

I think the hot lunches these days are considerably different than the hot lunches when I grew up.

What was your favorite hot lunch when you were growing up?
