My wish for all of us, that this year is better than the last! Excellent song by one of my favorite bands, The Paperboys. Give it a listen and if you ever get a chance be sure to see them in concert, they are fantastic!
“So as we raise our glass, to the midnight fireworks blast,
leave our troubles in the past,
hoping this year is better than the last…”

May the best day of the past year be the worst day of the one to come.

This is what we call the quiet season. That time of year has arrived when we look back at what we accomplished and ahead with anticipation of the new. Allow yourself to sit awhile. Imagine what the future might behold.
