“Taking a break” across the channel
August 25, 2008 by Miki Saxon
Kelly, our channel editor, loves handing out themes for us to write about on a specified day. It’s interesting and, judging by the traffic, our readers seem to enjoy the various takes.
The theme for today is “Taking a Break” interpreted any way we choose.
Now, giving carte blanche to a group of quirky bloggers (bloggers are quirky by definition) by saying that they may define something any way they choose is bound to yield eclectic results.
I have no idea who will write about Taking a Break, or what their spin will be—my own leans more to making a break than taking one—but here are possible headlines for the channel.

Should have come to you for ideas before writing about how to use a discount gym membership to take a break…
Lol, Miranda. Yours was easy. You have no idea how hard it got about halfway through the list after all the obvious ones were done:)
An interesting take on this theme, Miki. Thanks for linking to Home Biz Notes.
Hi ME, you’re welcome. It sounded fun when I thought about it, but half way through doing it was a different story:)
I guess I was, um, taking a break? Lost track of this entirely… thanks for the undeserved link.

Hi Anne, thanks for stopping by. Just for the record, I think link luv falls in the category of random acts of kindness, not something about which to keep score.
Very awesome list Miki. I like our recommended title, though our logo lends itself to taking a break all by itself.
Leadership Turn: Breakdance, twist and turn your leadership into a new style. :)
Very true,Phil. As to LT, I like “Breakdance, twist and turn your back, stay home and learn just how good your people really are!” better.
Your suggestion is even better. Go with it :)
