Happy New Year

A new year. Just like every year at the beginning of baseball season when we read Sid Hartman in the newspaper telling us the Twins have a chance to win it all, this year we all start off with a chance to do great things. And unlike baseball where only one team can win the championship, we can all be great.
 
I know for many of my friends 2018 was not a good year. I’m sending you an electronic hug. (If you want a real one, go ahead and hug me when you see me. I’ll return it.) Hopefully 2019 will bring glimmers of hope.
 
Or you might have had a good year in 2018. Hopefully, you can continue that in the new year. (You can still get a hug, if needed.)
 
In any case 2019 is a countdown year. This is the first year since 1918 when the digits start a countdown, by that I mean 20, 19, etc. We’re all counting down this year. Something exciting is coming for each of us at the end of our countdowns. Anticipate greatness for yourself this year.
