What's Happening...And What's Going To Happen?

Even though we do not present a "When Swing Was King" today, we still have a very full to-do list in front of us with a lot of letters to be written and sent, a couple of errands, an afternoon haircut and a few hours in the kitchen. This latter activity is due to our postponing the "Santa runs" we had scheduled for the 12 Days of Christmas (that doggone tooth problem). But since Dr. Curry performed his magic with a difficult (but painless for me) root canal, we're ready to prepare the cookies (Claire's task) and the cornbread and sausage dressing (my job) for delivery over the next couple of days.

And yes, as you'll see from the posts below, I've also managed to get in some blogging today.

But the key point of this post is to draw your attention to some really important opportunities coming your way. Please check these out and consider joining us in these events. They are all terrific chances for you to be informed, inspired and "properly invested." Just click on the links provided for more information.
