Happy New Year.....

So here we are...starting another year...

I'm not a record keeper...are you? I don't know how many years I've worked in radio or what I did last month...I don't keep track of my life...anything that feels like a long time - I call 7 years.
Sure! I lived there for 7 years...yep, we did that every year for... 7 years...whatever the thing was, if it feels like a long time - or a long time ago - 7 years covers it.

Thank you God for giving me friends who keep accounts. I call friends who remind me what year I went on a cruise...what year I had a sports car.... I'm just learning to tell my check book the specifics. I realize now that some things need to be detailed....

So - it's New Year's Eve eve and people are counting things and making lists.
I'm just counting my blessing...you? Actually - when other people make resolutions...I make picutres in my head...pictures of what I want the year to look like. I see picutres of my house filled with friends and family...I see beaches and mountains and places to explore... I see children to inspire...and I pray for a place to be used for a greater good. I also see myself doing homework. I'm thinking of taking a course or two...I don't know in WHAT yet...I'll have to get more specific eventually...

Here's what I KNOW I WON'T be doing in the New Year...and that's MOVING the day I take a red eye flight back from LA nine days before Christmas and then hosting a holiday party 5 days later! I just had a marathon few weeks - and truth be told - I wouldn't change it for the world....it was worth all the
crazy hours and hectic unpacking to spend Christmas with friends and family around the table and in front of the fire. Ya see, that's the picture I had in my head LAST year around this time. I kept telling my pets - 'WAIT 'til you see this HOUSE we're moving into...you're gonna LOVE the back yard. We're going to fill the place with love and entertain all the time'. They never doubted me.

So - go ahead. Close your eyes. Make a picture in your head. Put youself in that picture and FEEL what it FEELS like to be there and loving the scene. That's what I wish for you this New Year.

Thanks - for being here - and for being part of the WHUD family for the past...well, you know how long. We are rich in fun and friendship.

Much Love and Every Good Wish for Our New Year,
Peace on Earth.
