Happy New Year!

New Years Day... what a lazy, lazy day it's been. An almost a necessary end to the holiday season. I hope everyone had a great time with friends and family. Hopefully that is one of your new year resolutions as well- to spend more time with friends and family. Actually, that is my blog post for today; a suggestion list for New Year resolutions. Enjoy- good luck and Happy New Year!

1. Get Healthy! Whether it be diet, exercise or both. Take care of yourself.
2. Quit smoking... seriously, it's disgusting and it's killing you one day at a time. If you are still smoking, the time has come to give it up. It's not cool any more and hasn't been for a LONG TIME.... just do it.
3. Take control of your life. There are so many demands placed on us today, so many sources of stress. Back up, unplug and learn to say no. Do it for your mental health.
4. Practice random acts of kindness.
5. Turn off the television and read more. You'll be smarter for it - I promise!
6. Learn something new....take guitar lessons, learn yoga, learn a foreign language, register for a class- just take a step outside of your comfort zone and try something new!
7. Find a charity you are interested in and get involved. It's easy and you'll feel great about it.
8. Travel more.
9. Evaluate your priorities. So many people have their priorities completely out of order. If you died today, can you honestly say that this is the life you were meant to live? If not, change it today.
10. Place yourself on the path to inner peace, towards enlightenment..... towards consciousness.

Best wishes to all for a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!

Well, I'm not a painter. I sit in front of a computer doing graphic art all day. I do listen to music all day too. Some is a little off the beaten path, so, here goes;

BEATLES (of course, and any combination of John, Paul, George, and Ringo), JELLYFISH, JOAN OSBOURNE, BETH HART, THE HONEYDOGS, RASPBERRIES/ERIC CARMEN, THE WURMS (the ones from Pittsburgh) THE ORIGINAL ZUCCO BUBBLEGUM BAND, lots of CLASSIC ROCK, and lots of ONE HIT WONDERS NEW AND OLD.

I'll make you a MIX CD one of these days.

You have to check out every one of these band now.
