Okay, okay, OKAY!!!! After the past two months of emails, phone calls, and letters. I’ll do it! Stop twisting my arm! Geeze….it has come to my attention in MULTIPLE ways and in a multitude of communications that people really want me to start at the basics again. It seems my book is no longer enough […]
This morning after working out, I checked my email and had a one line note from a very dear friend of mine, Penny.

A few months ago I attended a Chamber of Commerce meeting and got to hear our wonderful mayor (he really is terrific!) chat about the plans he has for our lovely city for the next 10 years. It was a sterling speech and a great vision. He did a marvelous job outlining what aspects of […]
