I haven’t posted a new blog in a long time, but I have been
updating a feature on my Facebook and Twitter pages. Cranberry of the Day posts offer something positive that either
happened in my life, something good I did, something funny I saw, or a piece of
good luck that came my way. Cranberries range from a passing thought that can
bring a smile to my face to an amazing encounter with Steve Young! My Cranberry of the Day posts have been
updated fairly regularly in 2012 (no, not EVERY day!), and I am sharing them
all with you here. Each month of Cranberry
of the Day posts in 2012 is seen as a separate entry on this blog. As you look at these, I urge you to remember
your own cranberries. Sometimes, you have to be willing to look for them and
accept them.
