I wanted to apologize for not sending an ezine this week. I was in NY last week visiting our cable networks as well as 30 Rock. It was a very productive and exciting week, but unfortunately, the ezine had to be postponed one week. I hope you are having a good month... things are getting very tough out in the world, and I know it is sometimes quite challenging to stay motivated and positive. I know you can do it though...how does the saying go? "If I can do it, anyone can do it?" lol... Keep smil… Continue

After taking a week off, my new ezine will be ready to go first thing tomorrow morning. If you haven't already subscribed at www.i-choose-happiness.com, what are you waiting for? :) Continue

I posted 2 photos from today. Jenna at the finish line after walking 39 miles in two days for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer... what a great job she did! :) Continue

Another great weekend! Filled with a pool party, restaurants, movies and yes, another trip to the beach. Very grateful for all our friends, my family and continued good health! :) Continue

I have recently been getting back in touch with so many old friends from High School on Facebook. These social networks are absolutely amazing tools for connecting with so many people from both the past and the present. Yesterday, I met an old friend for lunch that I hadn't seen in about 28 years. (Ugh, how can so many years have passed?) We had such a wonderful time catching up and filling each other in on what has been meaningful and important through the years. Love, family, career... all m… Continue

My weekend was so fun filled that it kept me from sending out my weekly ezine from i-choose-happiness.com! So, although it's already Tuesday, I figured I should write about it here so that at least I can make some sort of online contribution this week! On Saturday, while Jenna took Emma for a "Back-to-School" shopping spree, Jack and I hit the beach. We went to Zuma for a few hours and spent some father & son bonding time. We had such a great time. Jack LOVES going in the water, and I actua… Continue

I can't believe it has only been a week since we began this journey! Things are going well here... I hope you are getting something positive from being here. We're now 40 strong and growing. If you have invited others, thanks so much for doing that. It makes it easier to grow when we all let others know about what we have here! Wishing you a great week with lots of good health and happiness! Warm Wishes, Ricky Continue

I am very excited that our community is growing... less than a week old with about 27 members. I hope this is something you would like to share with those who will appreciate this community. Sadly, not everyone has enough of an interest in things like this, but it's our job to change that! I will try to keep updating as much as I can... I'm working on the Olympics this week, waking up at 4:50am each day to be at work at 6am... I've actually gotten to like that. :) But alas, next week will be ba… Continue
