Happy New Year

From Pimpernel and my staff of highly trained monkeys, we wish everyone a Happy New Year. Lets face it, the last few years have been pretty bad and there is a good chance that next year will also be tough. I just read that a 7 point earthquake has hit Japan and it is raining birds in the south again.

Next year hundreds of thousands of service men and women will return home with little hope of finding jobs. No good news on the job front for any of us. I hope the coming year finds you closer to your family and friends, we can all do that. I hope this coming year finds my readers well and less focused on the material things.

This has been a difficult year for me; but, I survived it and so did you. Every year is a mixed bag; but, we can choose to overcome adversity. Let us pray that next year is a year of peace. Be well.
