My Visions for 2012

TweetHave you ever had an experience that changed your life and your vision of the world forever?  I recently did when my husband, Kirk, and George Marciniw of Helitours L.A. conspired to take me on a helicopter tour around the Los Angeles area.  It was, without a doubt, the most awesome experience that exceeded any [...]

Focus On Your Desires

TweetShortly after I got up this morning, I managed to kick into one of the legs on the bed.  The pain in my toe was unbelievable but I thought that it would pass in a short period of time and I proceeded with my day.  I had some errands to run and I started to [...]

The Day After Christmas

TweetAs I sit here relaxing this afternoon, I am struck by the fact that I do not feel sad that Christmas is over.  This is unusual for me.  Even more interesting is the fact that this feeling does not result from a sense of let down or a sense of relief after all of the [...]

Happy New Year

TweetWow! What a roller coaster ride we had in 2008. While I learned a great deal about myself, my husband and my family and friends, I am certainly glad that this year is about to end. But, I also understand that just because the calendar indicates that it is a brand new year that does [...]

Performance Evaluation
