People who have good health have many dreams; those that are struggling with their health have only one - to be healthy. My life is good so I have many dreams. Each summer one dream comes true every year.

Whew! Tax season is finally over. This one came at full force with the new tax law, new staff and bringing on new clients. The IRS shutdown didn’t help.

Every spring I get a beautiful surprise! In early March, I discover fresh sprouts on the garden rhizomes and bulbs sitting in my basement. I dug them out last fall before the frost hit.

Earlier this year I was caught in a car chase. I was minding my own business, going home on a Friday night when I notice flashing lights about a block behind me. I pulled over to the side.

I have chosen to stop watching the news on TV. I skip thru the mudslinging on Facebook and when reading the newspaper I only read factual headlines. I can’t handle the anger anymore.

I’m starting this year out well rested. I can’t believe it, but I am tired of vacation! Never in my life did I think I would feel that. Don’t get me wrong I really enjoyed Kauai in late November and it was really nice spending Christmas with my kids in Texas.
