You know I am so blessed to have people like Diane in my corner. With a angel like that spurring me on, how could I do anything else but succeed. Diane I thank you for your energy, for your passion and  life energy.

I say this because the past week has been most interesting as far as my dreams go. Believe it or not I have been able to partner with two wonderful souls to begin a new venture that we hope to kick off in the very, very near future. Hobnobbin' Catering Company will be appearing at an event near you so be on the look out. I am so very, very excited at the possibilities and for having such wonderful partners.

Then I had met a gentleman who is going to allow me to use his Nibblenook Diner kitchen a night or two a week to launch the reincarnation of Country Comfort Foods to local farmers markets and businesses. Basically, the name Country Comfort Foods belongs to a national food chain and they are none too happy that I have used it although it did not appear in the name databases that I researched. That said, I have to come up with a new name and am open to suggestions. But isn't it great that this gentleman has agreed to let me use his kitchen? Is this great or what!!!

Finally, this was the day when, prior to the counsel provided by Alice, Tasha and Diane and others on this wonderful site, I was considering leaving the temporary position I have been staffing for the past few months when it was decided that I was not their ideal permanent candidate. While my anger and hurt did get in the way, at first, their efforts and those of a treasured few helped me to see my way clear  and now I am continuing in this capacity for the near future. Well, at least past April 30th.

I mention all of this not to toot my own horn as I have none to toot. Instead, this experience has shown me what can happen when one remains actively open to new possibilities. While there are no guarantees of success, at least I did guarantee myself the chance to continue the dance, at the very least, and this next phase of life's journey, at best.

Thank you all and wish me luck.
