Keep it Simple with Yin and Yang - August 2009 Newsletter

Greetings!

What started as July’s newsletter has now become August’s. It’s summer time what can I say. In July, I spent two weeks in West Michigan enjoying time with family and friends, so even though I mentally thought about writing the newsletter, it was forcing creativity at a time when I just needed to enjoy the wonderfulness of Michigan and the joy and simplicity of family and summer. So, with that said, this month’s message: Keep it simple.

My Little Addiction

We’ve all got them: addictions. We can try to pretend we don’t, but we do. Music happens to be one of mine.
