"Where are YOU in this New Year?"

Well it's been a while and what I proposed to myself moving forward, has been working. So let's try this on for size: I'm going to address 2 things today !

1^{St :} Why is it that most of our “resolutions” for the New Year don't even make it to Blue Monday? I think , and this is only my opinion, that on Jan. 1 most of us don't even know what day it is ! Hahahaha.

I feel that we are so busy and consumed with cleaning up from our holidays and taking care of ALL the “stuff” we put on the back burner BECAUSE of the holidays, that Jan. 1. is not the best time in the world for “resolutions”. So how do we fix THAT?!!!

My idea is that we use January as a sort of “Cyber-month”, just kind of out there for us to take the time we need to get ourselves back in the swing of things. I mean let's face it, by the time we address all this - the month is over ! So my New Year started this year just a few days ago and it has been WONDERFUL !

2^nd : As I started this New Year, I had the distinct honor and pleasure to be representing one of the most fabulous up and coming artists around, Chris Ford. We caught Chris at the Wine and Art show yesterday with the ACCVA. (Atlantic City Convention and Visitor's Authority). The event was held at the Atlantic City Country Club in Northfield. Chris has also been part of the right here in Galloway.

Now a little birdie told me there have been people running around saying that they were Chris Ford; well I know better for I represent the real deal! People are now coming to shows just to get works by Chris. His style is very thought-provoking. Chris actually painted LIVE models at the show! Very exciting ...

We have big plans for Chris Ford so make sure when you meet him, you have the original CHRIS FORD. I know we are going to get him to another event here in Galloway soon ! Hint, Hint.....

So the year has started off great for me, in February, right where it belongs !
