Tigger or Eeyore
Ok I have posted this in my thread about poos and wees and other words, But thought it deserves it own place.
You may see Yvonne called me a Tigger....
Ok, So I need to explain just a little about the Tigger.
I want you all to take a few moments to watch this little piece on Randy Pousch, Randy recently passed away (last month actually) and then I want you to tell me, are you a Tigger or an Eeyore

Oh I saw the doco when it aired a few months ago and I immediately thought that it was wonderful outlook on life.
I love winnie the pooh and have decorated Angus's room in that theme.
I aim to be tiggerish, but sometimes eeyore slips in there.
Oh wow I just noticed DS's ticker is a tigger - FREAKY!

Ok, I'm either stoopid or an eeyor, when I click on the link it takes me to the main page and there's no vid to watch, when I click on stuble it shows me a random vid. Clever guy made water into a flame, interesting but I think not what I'm meant to be watching..

Very inspirational, and sad at the same time.
I think I can be very eeyorish at times, though I do tend to give myself a kick in the pants and thats when Tigger takes over.

I watched this yesterday at work - what a insperational man! I would like to say that I am a Tigger, but to be honest, I am more of an Eeyore. Tho through watching that clip, I am working on being more of a Tigger. Thank you for sharing this Lisa.

I have found most people think they are Eeyores.
I guess everyone has the moments when they are one or the other.

Lisa,
Oh man he is such an inspiration, as you are too
I must admit to being an Eeyore alot of the time, but after seeing this a again, I am gonna try and find my inner Tigger and go with him
Any idea on when you are going for your scan yet? If you need me to come or to look after Cort while you go, just let me know
