Saying Goodbye

As 2011 comes to an end and we look forward to the New Year, I, myself, am beginning a new journey.  After much thought, prayer and discussion with my family and friends, I have decided to move forward with a long cherished dream of mine.  I am embarking into the world of publishing a (state-wide) magazine that focuses on the best food and travel elements of our state.

As I am sure you are aware, this is NOT a small undertaking and I begin to get heart palpitations when I consider the scope of this new venture.  But it is my dream - I go to sleep thinking about it, I wake up thinking about it, I spend the entire day thinking about it.  The photographer and Pierce are my biggest cheerleaders and I have assembled a stellar ensemble of writers, graphic artists, etc.  Please pray that my endeavor will be successful.

Also, as I am sure you are aware, this project will occupy every single moment of time not dedicated to caring for my family and home.  And so, I have come to the conclusion that I must focus every bit of energy I have left on the magazine and end this blog - perhaps temporarily, perhaps permanently.

I sincerely hope you and yours have a Christmas season filled with blessings that extend throughout 2012 and that your journey into the future is full of promise and joy.

Dondi, I will really miss you and your blog! Oh, why are there partings?

But, I do wish you all success in your new enterprise, and your new home, since you're going to sell the farm.

God bless!

Lisa

and Merry Christmas, too!
