May 2018 Newsletter- First Half
After a lot of grey days in April we look forward to flowers and warm sunny days in May. This is a good time to go for a walk, eat lunch on a restaurant patio, work in the garden, or do some window shopping in town, or if it's rainy finish up your 'spring cleaning'.  I chose this quote from Edwin Way Teale "The world's favorite season is the spring. All things seem possible in May."  

"The Patricia Raskin Show"  
The program that helps you find answers to tough questions, turn obstacles into opportunities, and challenges into solutions.
