Let's hope that turning over the 'ol calendar page marks the beginning of a happy and healthy new year for you and yours! I'll momentarily set aside my pessimistic tendencies and allow the optimism that the new year represents to take over. Good luck to those of you who are doing the
New Year's Resolution thing, but hopefully all of us can find some small way to make this year better than the one than came before it. If we are really lucky, let's keep our fingers crossed that our leaders can do the right thing and bring home the troops before the ball drops next year!
