It’s been a year for the record books, no matter where you live.

We are grateful for all we have, yet are keenly aware that so many have lost so much.

Fires raging, hurricanes blowing, earth shaking; it hardly feels like the time to be celebrating.

But the truth is … it’s the best time to remember the good in our lives; our family, friends, pets, home, health, and careers are things that will bring a grateful smile to each of us.

As for the Plessner clan, we are healthy, business is good and we had the good grace this year to have celebrated the marriage of two of our children. Watching our grown children walk down the aisle was a vivid reminder that time stops for no one, and that joy comes in many forms as we welcome the additions to our family tree.

I want to extend my warmest wishes to you and yours this holiday season. May your home be filled with family and friends, may you enjoy good health, and your blessings be many.

I look forward to sharing with you in the coming year. I’ve got some exciting stuff I’m working on that I think will offer a great solution to a systemic problem we all have. You’re definitely going to want to know about this.

Stay tuned … and stay well.

Mitch
