Happy New Year!

My year is off to a terrific start.  My home office is a well organized, peaceful place to work and think due in large part to the steadfast efforts of my son, Chris, who has made it his goal for over a month. I am grateful for his expertise and understanding in accomplishing a lot in a relatively short period of time. Not to mention all the stuff he loaded, sorted, bagged, boxed, moved and removed, donated or recycled. My daughter, Alicia, and my husband, Bill, have been helpful in accomplishing certrain aspects of this transition (heavy lifting and truck loads, too) and I am very thankful for their contributions as well.  My two youngest, Daniela and Nicole, texted me their New Year's wishes from different parts of New York state early this morning within minutes of midnight.  A perfect beginning to a brand new year!  Make it a good one!

A thought to help you along:
