We are ready to bid 2009 farewell, and look forward to 2010! We hope you all survived the holidays, and are ready to gear up for another year. Let’s all hope that this year brings financial stability to our country, a chance for peace in order for our troops to come home, and a political establishment that will make good decisions for the entire country. There are many hard-working Americans that just want us to all be on a fair playing field. For those who are without work, let’s hope that you find a job soon.
