You did a fantastic job with it, Connie!

[Connie N.]

Thanks. I always hate to close out a challenge that's unfinished, but sometimes you just have to face reality...

Connie, I'm doing some of that as well. Starting the new year fresh!

[jingles]

I'm cleaning mine up too. I have challenges that have been languishing for over six years. It's time for me to either focus on them and get them finished, or close them out and be done with them.

Something about this Covid situation has changed my focus on these challenges.

[Connie N.]

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. I feel the need to take stock and reset my goals.

[jingles]

Exactly, Connie!
