It’s a new year, new decade.  2010–can you believe it? As a kid, I remember thinking how old I’d be when 2000 came around, and now this decade, like so many others, has zoomed past. 2009 is boxed up and tucked away in my memory and its papers are waiting patiently for the accountant. For me, this was a difficult year. Business challenges dominated my time, but daily I practiced The Way, which helped me focus on what was really important–family and health. I give thanks to the Divine Mother for all the blessings she has bestowed on me and my family. We welcomed Joanna on Christmas Day, and mother and daughter are doing well. Charlie is adjusting to his new sister.

After mourning our beloved beagle for a year, we got another puppy and Lulu entered our lives. She is an adorable nine-month labradoodle who brings smiles to everyone she comes in contact with.

The Christmas decorations are boxed up and put away. Now I can enjoy the peace and solitude that Winter offers. The landscape is covered with a thick blanket of snow,so I’m going to make a cup of tea and curl up by the fire with a good book.

 My prayer for you is that this new year brings peace, joy, and opportunity for growth.
