A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you to our sponsors, Heart and Soul Holistic Center and Jersey Shore Hobby Center. I
hope
everyone had a wonderful holiday and created wonderful memories, too! So here we are at
the start
of a New Year. I like to think of it as a blank sheet of clean paper just waiting for me
to write
down all the goals I have for the year ahead. I hope to include not just career goals but
also
personal, health and fun goals, too! For example, I plan to test for my Black Belt in Tae
Kwon Do
on March 2nd! I plan to plant a wild flower garden this year and read some novels that
have piled
up at home! I hope that you have or will take some time to consider what you want to
achieve this
upcoming year. I prefer to think of it as goals rather than resolutions... Hope one of
your goals
is to get out and enjoy some of the local happenings in the area.
Until January 21st, may you enjoy a happy, healthy and peaceful New Year!!
Karen
