few 2009 highlights are:
·
Grandchildren – I now have four wonderful Grandkids! YES! Two are in Hawaii and two in TX
· “Gifts for the Heart” – American Publishing is publishing a book containing 16 fictional love stories. It should be released in 2010. If it goes well, I'll work with them to publish a fictional thriller called, "Man in the Shadows". We’ll see how it goes.
· A new job in CSC – CSC is being reorganized and I’m involved in quality initiatives for all three divisions of CSC.
