Our check book is a great deal lighter than it was one week ago. Tickets purchased on the fly are just shy of ten grand! We had to buy two of them! It was as if a tornado blew through the house and out again and suddenly, there were too many groceries, too many missed reservations, tickets which would go unused and a very disappointed wife…after all today is my birthday!

I am sure some of you wondered; "huh….what has happened to Janice?" Well, I can tell you, L – I- F- E!
As I have intimated many times before my husband and I are very successful because we have always had a plan and worked the plan. When our lives have hit a pot hole or we have had some type of challenge not of our own making we have come full stop and then re-evaluated our plan and revised and tweaked it and then moved right on.

Today is Memorial Day. It is not a time to jump for joy that your office is closed or that the children are out of school or to shop super sales, cook hot dogs or to jmup in the family car to begin the summer get away season. As Americans we have become a nation which does not honor the sacrifice and death that has made it possible for us to have this national holiday. If you are someone who abhors war then this is a day that you should celebrate. Without the deaths of those who have gone before you, you would not have the freedom to stand up and oppose war for the sake of war. Without those deaths from the past 250 years, you might not be under the flag of the United States, but some other country. Many times in our history we could have just as easily been English, French, Spanish or under the flag of Mexico.
