Happy New Year!

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!  I am not a big proponent of New Year resolutions, but I do believe in setting goals and forming action plans to attain them.  Consequently, the end of a calendar year and the beginning of a new one is a natural time to reassess these goals and make necessary […]
