Greetings Work and Family Members.

Well, January came in on a warm sunny cloud and had a lot of us in the New York/New Jersey area wondering where winter was hiding. People were out with sweaters and less, I even saw sandals. Looking out of my window last week, I saw that some people had started their spring-cleaning a little early. However, this week I do think that winter is finally showing its chilly hand. Still the weather here has been amazing and a bit confusing. Yesterday we had snow. It came down hard and appeared to be sticking, but stopped and disappeared almost immediately. At any rate, winter has indeed arrived.
Don’t forget your scarves and mittens. (Smiling)

I think you all will find my newest articles timely and of interest:

Have you seen the January calendar?

*January Calendar (07)*
January is Cervical Cancer Screening Month. Remember to take some time out now so you will have time later. It is also National Mentoring Month and January 15 is Thank Your Mentor Day. I have not thanked my most recent mentor but will do so this month. Do not forget to thank your mentor.

*Quote for Inspiration* On family

If the family were a fruit, it would be an orange, a circle of sections, held together but separable—each segment distinct.
--Letty Cottin Pogrebin

*Making Ends Meet*

If you have a home business or just getting started in a brick and mortar business, most likely your advertising budget will be at the low end. However, business cards and such are important, no matter how small your budget. You can plan your marketing strategy around a company such as VistaPrint. This company is probably best known for its free biz cards with its company URL on the back. Go ahead and use VistaPrint, but spend a few dollars more to get rid of the tell-tale-freebie URL and place further information concerning your own business on the back. This is a good deal. http://www.vistaprint.com\

The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another’s desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. —Erma Bombeck
