So, what's new with you? Well, it's a new year so there must be something. Maybe a new job, car, house, or computer? Or maybe you were thinking more along the line of something to do like a new hobby, or new sport, or goal to speak a foreign language?
You have made it through the holidays, well almost. You are now in the gray area I call “The In-between” time. It’s a not so magical time when you awake unsure of what you are supposed to do and how you are supposed to feel.
