Presidents Message

January 2013..can you even believe it! We are through the year and I have to say, I

have had the most enjoyable term as President and I thank you all for your help and

consideration with my learning curve. We have accomplished a lot, but have a few moreaccomplishments to make. I know the remainder of the year will be most prosperous.This upcoming program in January should be most interesting, as Stuart Powell will be

our speaker, relaying new information on legislative issues. Also, we are going to have

another Date Night Basket Raffle, so start thinking about some products to make this

basket appealing! Lets move forward in 2013 and if you have any ideas on the

association, they will be most welcomed. Happy New Year!!!!

My 2013 Travel Plans

My inconclusive travel plans for 2013 I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots.

Apparently you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.

I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there.

I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made

several trips there, thanks to my friends, family, and work.

I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activityanymore.

I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often.

I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.

Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting older.One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old

heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get!

I may have been in Continent, but I don't remember what country I was in. It's an age thing.

PLEASE DO YOUR PART!Today is one of the many National Mental Health Days throughout the year.

You can do your bit by remembering to send an e-mail to at least one unstable person. My job is done!

Life is too short for negative drama and petty things. So laugh insanely, love truly, and forgivequickly!

From one unstable person to another... I hope everyone is happy in your head-- we're all doing pretty

well in mine

Have a great weekend and hope to see you next weekall of you!!
