Tonight we close the books on 2012. Call it a wrap. Kiss it good-bye. If 2012 was a particularly good year you are wishing it won't end. If it was not one of your better years your may be thinking more along the lines of "...don't let the door hit you where the good Lord …
Month: December 2012
Get Your Game Face On!
The new year is just around the corner and many people will take a few minutes on self-reflection (for what you did in 2012) and self-flagellation (for what you failed to do in 2012).
