I am planning a dream vacation to St Lucia!

WORK, WORK, WORK, and MORE WORK!!!!

Anita, best of luck in achieving or obtaining whatever goal you allude to in your blog.  Happy New Year!

My husband and I are planning a trip to the Poconos for Valentine's Day (weekend) and we are planning to pay early so that our 2 older boys can go to a really nice summer camp this year.  As far as business is concerned, I'm determined to really grow my business this year so I'm really looking forward to implementing my new marketing plan for 2009 and picking up some new clients who can go with me on the journey!

The majority of my resolutions do envolve business relateted success for 2009.

With the tough year of 2008 behind us, I am going to enter 09 positive and shoot for the stars.

Ill let ya know how it works ;)

Anita-I just wanted to wish you and your family a happy and healthy new year.

Delaware has an annual $250,000 Raffle tonight. They only sell 100,000 tickets I believe at $10 each. So, my husband and I have our plans all ready to implement and they include:

1. Take a vacation somewhere warm like Key West or maybe Cancun
2. Buy a lot on which to build an investment property
3. Build 6-8 senior housing rental units on property we already own
4. Pay down on at least one mortgage

It's amazing how much we could accomplish if the stars are shining on us this evening. Would everyone reading this please concentrate!

If we don't win, we'll just keep on keeping on and stick to our marketing plan - Boomers and Beyond at the Beach ... in Delaware.

Ok, so share!  What is the one thing you want more than anything?  Inquiring minds want to know!

Oh Anita...I'm standing in prayer with you. God is listening. 

I feel to share something with you. When my daughter was only 6 months old, I found her one morning unconscious and with her head swollen like a cone. I rushed her to the emergency room and was told that she probably had spinal meningitus. They did a spinal tap and admitted her to the hospital...semi-comatose. 

After the first day, they told me that it seemed more likely that she had hydrocephalus...that she may never be normal again...IF she regained consciousness. My heart broke.

At the time, we lived in a very small town...so the doctors had called in specialists from Duke University Medical Center to evaluate her. After six days...and the day before they were scheduled to arrive...I had a spiritual battle in her hospital room. I won't go into the details here, but I KNEW that my daughter's life was NOT in the doctors' hands...but that she was in God's hands. 

The next morning...when the specialists arrived...my daughter was sitting up in bed. She was NOT JUST BETTER...she was completely HEALED. The specialists could not believe their eyes. They tested her every way they could...and there was NO SIGN of any disease. She was 100% healed! She is still as healthy as can be, and she just turned 18.

MY GOD did what no doctor could do. He healed my baby girl. In the process, He taught me much about faith and trust. 

NOTHING (ABSOLUTELY NOTHING) is impossible with God!!!

Happy New Year, my friend!!! May 2009 be THE YEAR that ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!! ~GBU~

Anita, I want to go anywhere it is warm. I'm looking out my office window and I can see Mountains all around me. It is beautiful but I need SUN!!!! I have all my goals for work and personal done and feel really good about this year. It can only go up.

Anita and Elizabeth,

You are so right. If we have our health we have everything and it's time to kick this market you know where! The phones are ringing again and buyers are beginning to put their big toes out. It's not much but it's a start.

By the way, we didn't win that Delaware Raffle. Oh well. But I spent the day with a new buyer and tomorrow I am taking a new listing. We live to fight another day.

Ahhhh, 2009 is the year of the KID!   We started out the year with her here with us!!  Then in March we will head to NY to see her.  In May she graduates from Columbia and heads HOME!  In June we fly to Ohio for a weekend to have a family shower and in July she get married!!!  WOW, what a year 2009 will be.  Hope yours is wonderful!     ...geri
