I too congratulate all the challenge winners. My family suddenly got so busy over the Holidays that there was hardly any time to pick up the phone or computer. Going in new directions away from the norm is exciting. I was actually able to get all my Christmas shopping done on time in 2024. I feel that we all will see and experience different pathways in 2025. This will not be a year of broken resolutions it will be a year of mega solutions and opportunities for growth for us all. I expect to learn and grow in things that will enable me to be a bigger contributor to those I have been called to help, Blessings everyone into this new year! W. Payne
No worries Wanda, it is a busy time of year. Wishing you a wonderful 2025 ahead! :)
