To all the wonderful women that I have met this year, and the one before that, and the one before that . . .,
Thank you the fun times, the kindnesses and the hospitality.  

I admire your dedication as mothers, especially those of you who are raising kids with disabilities alone. I admire you for keeping it together during the hard transitions of broken marriages, lost jobs, abuse, missing child support, and illnesses. I am sorry that some of you had to deal with clients who have shorted or abused you-you deserve better.  I hope this coming year brings you security, healing and safety.

For the guys who are tempted to make snarky replies, resist the urge. Life is too short for drive-by meanness. I am not angling for (and do not expect) discounts or extras for this post: it is what it is. I will not respond as I am off the Board except for reviews and shills until Mother's Day.

Auld Lang Syne means Olden Days Long Since (or gone by).  

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne
