By Sandra Hoffman, President It s the start of another year and there has been quite a lot of talk about resolutions. I've found that if I make an easy resolution, it s easier to keep. Yes ladies, it s true, I am not a very deep thinker but it works for me. So this year, along with keeping up with my friends, I resolve to have fun every single day. For 2017, when my feet hit the floor, I want the devil to say, oh no, she s up." NEW LOGO The logo committee is meeting this month to go over the wonderful designs we have received from Jo Boulet's son. We will be making a recommendation next month.
