Well kids after about 10 days of self imposed radio silence, it’s time to take the wrapper off my shiny new job. I have been hired by Seaway printing in Green Bay, WI to be their Director of technology and I could not be more excited.
So many great new people to meet and things to so. I have been welcomed with open arms and the task list is growing by the moment. Better get working!
TommyLog – Goodbye HC Miller
Well kids, the time has come to move on and say my goodbyes to the GREAT people at HC Miller. Four years of learning, laughing and struggles under my belt and I’m off to a new adventure. So many new friends and people to me… SO EXCITING!
My life is so blessed to be surrounded by many many great people.
Onward and upward kids…LETS DO THIS!
Having respect and a reverence for those who have put themselves before others is so important. A Facebook posting this week really hit home for me. The post was about how she had a body of a fallen solder on her plane and how the the body was deplaned before any of the passengers. That really hit me hard as a humbling experience.
Took me back to an experience I had visiting ground zero at the world trade center plaza just 5 weeks after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Emma and I talk about opinions and the difference between fact and opinion. We talk about how important it is to respect others opinions. You do not have to agree, but it need to be nice to those who have differing opinions than yourself.

Staying organized in this day and age is so important! The one tool that I just love to use to keep myself digitally organized is Evernote. Using Evernote on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is just such a pleasure. One reason is the huge screen for taking down notes and making notations. Evernote is just so multi platform. You can find Evernote for your desktop machine, Mac or PC as well as ever smartphone flavor out there, Android, IOS, Windows Mobile as well as Blackberry.
One of my favorite Evernote features is the ability to OCR pictures. I love to take pictures of business cards and let Evernote OCR them for easy searching. That’s a free tip from Tommy ☺
Another tip is to set up an Evernote email address. Evernote has the ability to process emails and sort them to different notebooks. That way I can send emails or forward emails right into an Evernote notebook. All you need to do is add the “@notebooknamehere” to the subject line and the email will be sent to that particular notebook. LOVE that feature.
One huge hidden gem about purchasing the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Verizon is that fact you get a Evernote Premium upgrade with each phone. That’s about a $50 freebee. Bring a premium subscriber gets you more bandwidth and storage as well as a list of other features found here. http://evernote.com/premium/
Using Evernote to keep me organized on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is totally “Tommy Approved”!!
