Wow! It's been a long time. Too long. As I begin my journey to de-clutter my life I noticed that I have not visited my own site for two years. A lot has happened in two years, both good & bad. The kids are growing & turning into wonderful young adults. On the down side, the recent passing of my mom. She did peacefully with family at her side on Dec. 8,2014.  So it's an new year & a new beginning. I hope to achieve many of the goals I have set for myself this year. So hear is to a new year!
