Happiness On Monday

Hello Friends!

I'm getting this written under the wire of the final hour! Is that a legitimate sentence? Laughing! Who cares! Things are better here at Partak Central. The last three-plus weeks have been full of madness and mayhem. Things breaking, unexpected bills needing paid, and so much more. I know these life cycles come and go but are we ever happier then when they are gone? *Something to do*

I'm officially a soccer mom and Mason is really loving this game. It's still early, but he seems to have a natural ability to play goalie. It may be natural, raw talent or more likely it's that he has no fear of the ball. He also thinks it's cool that in this position he can use his hands making the dramatic dives and body-blocks so much more fun! I'll keep you posted and be sure to post pictures next week. *Someone to love*

ZipperBack Gloves is gearing up for Season II and it's my intention that we land the "Big One!" National chain that is. If we can get one big national chain on board, we can take this little company from red to black. Our adult glove is here and it will be for sale to retailers in January (for a fall 2011/2012 launch). It;s all pretty cool, from just the child's line of five sizes in one color to the child's line - snow and fleece, three sizes in a youth line, snow and fleece, three sizes in mittens (for the little-little ones), and two new colors in addition to the black! Welcome red and royal! I hope we have lots and lots of snow that brings lots and lots of good ZipperBack Glove news! *Something to hope for*

Now it's time for bed. One of my goals for this week is to get this new computer completely set up so we can get back to pictures each week. I miss the pictures, don't you?

Here is my Monday Motivator on Happiness: "Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, someone to love and something to hope for."
