And thank you for your kind words. Tanveer, thank you. Its hard to write posts that are "all about me". I won't do many of them, but this one seemed right for the end of 2009. Thanks for your encouragement. Deirdre, Michigan is lucky to have you, your husband and Samson; you are such a great ambassador! And I'm glad to have met you. I'm looking forward to more fun coffees together in the future! Meredith, How wonderful to have your family around you. And thank you for your kind words.

Brought tears to my eyes. We moved to Michigan from California and could have retired anywhere in the country. We chose Michigan and love Michigan. And try to continue and invest. We are grateful, humbled, invested and hopeful. I am so happy to know you - and look forward to many more fun and engaging coffees together. Dee This is unreal. Beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes.

Although there's a bit more of a personal side to this post compared to others, the fact is that in all of our pieces, you have shed some light on who you are. Sometimes it was evident through the stories or people you'd mention in your pieces, but mostly it's because it was obvious in your writings that you were writing about what mattered to you; a very telling indicator about who you are and why so many of us have enjoyed reading your blog and getting to know the person behind the posts. So, thank you for not only sharing your insights, but also those glimpses into who you are. Wishing you and your family all the best for the holidays. Looking forward to seeing what ideas you share in 2010. Tanveer. I agree with Becky, Mary Jo, that this is a wonderful list.

As I read each item, I reflected on how it applied in my own life. Your #1 is mine also. Our daughter lives close by, and we cherish our weekly get-togethers with her. I'm also lucky that my own parents and some of my siblings live nearby and we see them often, too. I'm thankful to have found you and your blog this year, and I eagerly await the wisdom you'll share in upcoming posts. Hope you have a special holiday with your family and create lots of positive memories! A very inspiring list, Mary Jo. As I read each item, I reflected on how it applied in my own life.

When I started down my blogging path back in September, your's was the first blog that I stuck with, all because of the amount of 'you' that you put into it. I'm grateful for having found you and being able to share with you on a daily basis. Enjoy your holidays!! Mary Jo, thank you for sharing this.
