Happy New Year! This is the first full week of 2026. I saw this quote a few years ago and I really liked it, nothing profound or anything, I just liked it. We all create our own story, and this says it well. “Tomorrow, is the first blank page of a new 365 page book. Write a good one.” - Brad Paisley. What kind of story will this year bring for you?
It’s been pretty quiet around here but the kids head back to school this week on the 5th so get ready for their busy schedules and ultimately yours to pick back up.
Happy Anniversary wishes go out to Norman and Louise Arrington who will celebrate on 1/6.
