Tuesday was a great day. One of those days when you end up with a big smile on your face for no apparent reason. It was because I felt appeciated. It doesn't sound like much, but when you get told thank you for something, it has an impact.
I'd previously written a case study of the impact a piece of software was having in school for a software company, and that study was submitted (along with lots of other information) as evidence for an award.
Well last Friday the company won their award and today I received a quite marvellous gift, sent to school, from the company. It wasn't asked for, it wasn't even expected, but it was sent along with a message of thanks for helping them.
So, as you can imagine I felt good. And that feeling improved this evening as I was following updates about a teachers conference held in London (through the power of twitter) and suddenly saw people tweeting about the work we were produding on the school website. It seemed that one of the speakers was showcasing our work.
Sometimes life can be great :))))))))))))))
