March 14, 2012 Book Summary

Here are highlights of the March 14th discussion:

Dave Schaefer discussed Audible.com as a resource for books to be downloaded to a smart phone and/or computer. You can listen to books while driving or walking. A new device, Plantronics Voyager Blue Tooth can be used with a smart phone.

Deb Walters is reading How Full Is Your Bucket by Tom Rath & Donald O.Clifton, Ph.D. This book is about how we each have our own bucket that is filled depending on our daily interactions with other. We also each have our own invisible dipper which is used to fill other's buckets, depending on what we say and do. The book points out that we can fill one another's buckets or we can dip from them, with these being an important choice as it profoundly influences our relationships, productivity, health and happiness.

Dave Schaefer was reading The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. Dave explained how the information helps couples communicate and understand how each other wants to be loved. Dave felt this is a great book for anyone who wants to be with someone. At the end of the book there is a questionaire to help a person determine their primary love language that makes them feel that they are being loved.

Join us Wednesday April 11, 2012 at noon in the HyVee cafeteria 90th & Center in Omaha Nebraska. Meetings are the second Wednesday of every month.
