Happy New Year to all of my friends on NOTH. I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and were able to enjoy some precious time with friends and family. I am doing well. This winter has been very mild so far, and I am happy with that. I am keeping busy with work, volunteering services at church, and serving as Vice President of the Board of Directors for the condominium association in which I live. I will be celebrating two years in Vermont on February first. Time has certainly gone by quickly. Blue Bird (my mom), and dad are both feeling a little under the weather, so please send her a hug or a friendly greeting if you have the time. I appreciate all of your bulletins. I always feel better when I visit on the Hill.
Sincerely,
Brenda

I am working at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in the Transfusion Services Department. DHMC is a wonderful place to work, and I am learning a lot.

I live in a townhouse condominium, and participate on the Board of Directors for the Association. This is a self-managed community, and I am learning a lot about business as I participate on the Board.

I enjoy cooking on my days off. I make large batches of food and freeze it for the upcoming weeks.

My cat rules the house, as well as me--and I'm ok with that.
