Hello everyone!  First, I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas!  Next, I would like to thank you for your support and readership over this past year.  Blogging, while enjoyable and therapeutic, has been a learning experience for me.  I so appreciate your kind words and encouragement and allowing me the space to make and fix my mistakes.  This message is to inform you all I will be taking the next few weeks off to concentrate on Christmas and my family.  I will be returning in January with some exciting news I look forward to sharing with you all.  I pray you all have a wonderful Christmas season!!

From my family to yours–Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
