Not a New Year's Resolution, but, similar in nature.   I am realistic and know that I will not hold true to this for the entire new year.  I have set a shorter goal, with a purpose in mind.  Business has picked up, just with the turn of a calendar.  Elections ahead of us and with that, comes a renewed enthusiasm for our economy.  The signs are beginning to show a better market for retail sales and real estate.  Whoo Hoo!

My brilliant new year's idea is to really keep after it.  Whether it be exercising, diet conscience, spiritual awareness, family, business or self improvement, I am determined to be on the ready.  A new year offers new opportunities and being ready to accept and engage in them is my brilliant idea.  All rolled into one, positive affirmation.  Keep after it! 

They say, time is money.  Why not spend valuable time with those that mean the most to you?  To me, there can be no monetary value to time.  Time spent with someone is the gift.  Make memories that will last for your lifetime!

I look forward to offering my good services and ideas, to all who may need my assistance. 

Starting in January, with my Appreciation Tea Party.  Excited to engage with everyone and hoping that, you, too, have a great new year!

Happy 2012!  Wishing you, all the best that you can be!

While watching my Grandson, Tyler, today, I asked him to stand by the Christmas tree in the family room for a quick photo.  He loves to have his photo taken:)  All of a sudden, Tyler got the giggles.  When I looked up, he had backed up to the tree, just enough, so that the needles on the branches, tickled his neck.  I couldn't help but laugh, myself.  I wish I had thought to video the moment:)  Precious memories, being made, everyday! 

Wishing all of you, a Christmas filled with peace, joy and giggles:)  

This is the first year that I had my tree up and decorated on Thanksgiving weekend.  With my Grandson's assistance, we got the lights on, trimmed the tree with our special decorations (mostly from Disney World and Disneyland).  There are, also, several hand made creations from my children.  We have been enjoying looking at the tree, every day since.  My Grandson is eighteen months old and just becoming aware of Christmas.  The joy on his face is just, amazing.

For my clients I delivered popbys of poinsettia's.  Keeping myself busy with the preparations and baking for this Christmas season.  I love to bake cranberry nut bread, apple pies and gingerbread men at this time of year.  Those familiar scents that fill my home are very welcomed.

Cooking the bird, attending the Manchester Road Race, then, heading to the afternoon destination.  This year, my youngest Daughter, hosted our family holiday.  We had a warm and sunny, Thanksgiving Day this year.  It was great for the runners of the Turkey Race, in Manchester, Ct.  They had 15,000 participants!  Wow!  I have walked it, several times in the past years. My children and friends(who ran) would wait for me at the finish line on Main St, in front of St James Church. Still remember that hill by Highland Park Market.  Now, I am happy to join my friends and be a spectator.  The race route is lined with us fans!  Five miles of fans, bands, boom boxes, parties and more, all along the route. Some of the runners/walkers, dress in costumes, paint their bodies, carry flags, push strollers and walk with their dogs. Safety Man is my all time favorite!
 The community support is amazing! Many generations of runners join together to share this race.  Here are a few photos of the day!
