Mexico Bound- December 14 2018 letter
Happy Friday, my friends. Sorry that I missed an email last week. I am sure that you are all so disappointed. I am back and traveling, again. Last week, Ali, Marissa and I were in Los Angeles for meetings of our practice management mastermind group. We all learned how to be more efficient. Ali and I are heading back to LA, but this time to catch the Carnival Splendor for 7 days of "fun and sun and plenty of adult beverages. Our cruise will take us...
Traveling- November 30, 2018
Hello, my friends, After a full week back in the office I can truly say that I loved having 4 days off. During my staycation, I re-started my 55-gallon fish tank adding just the (as my daughter Marissa used to say when she was younger) "prettiful" lights and plants.

Thanksgiving- November 23, 2018

I am sitting at the airport in DC (actually Virginia) waiting to head home after spending 2 days in IRSAC meetings (Internal Revenue Service Advisory Council), and all I can say is "the heck with that." I'll admit that I did arrive at the airport a bit early...hotel check out was at 1PM and the weather was snowy, wet, dank, and cold. I left the hotel directly...
Family- November 8, 2018
Hello my friends, The elections are finally over which means the annoying ads and bad mouthing will stop. Well, maybe. Of course, there will still be the President's tweets, and soon enough we will begin hearing the ads for the 2020 elections, so say the news pundits. I really wish there was a law preventing negative political ads. I was taught that if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. However, it all comes down to the media's...
