Wouldn't It Be Nice... (Post #1 - submitted in January)

Posted 01-28-2010 at 02:59 PM by OrganizedAssistant  
I've never been really good at hypothetical questions, like the ones that ask "If you were a car, what make and model would you be?" I'm more about facts and figures than possibilities, so when I read the challenge question for this month, I was pretty sure I'd be giving this one a pass. Although it would be interesting to meet a celebrity like Oprah or the late John Lennon, I honestly couldn't get stirred up enough to write about the prospect.

Consequently, blogging wasn't even on my mind when I mentioned to my husband earlier this week how much I would love to meet Julie Bestry and Geralin Thomas, preferably at the same time. Not only are they both brilliant professional organizers (my kind of people), but they each have a unique sense of humour that can always bring a smile to my face.

Geralin and I have spoken numerous times, as she's one of my regular clients, but although Julie and I have been online friends for longer than either of us can remember, we've never even spoken on the phone. To sit down with these two very smart and funny women over a meal or a glass of wine would be just wonderful! And if they wanted to bring their colleague Jeri Dansky along, well, that would round up the foursome very nicely.

Lesson learned: Sometimes we look so hard for answers, that we don't see them right in front of us!
