January Meeting
When: Thursday, January 18,
7:15 pm
Where: Sally's House
What: Our Annual Planning Meeting
The annual
January planning meeting will be held at Sally's on Thursday, January
18. To make it fun for all, this
year, we will have a CATERED dinner,
and a re-gifting party. Andiamo's will provide an Italian dinner,
you
only need to bring your meeting, outings, and couple events ideas, and
a nice gift that just wasn't quite your type (not a white elephant--an
exchange, not a dump).
Please RSVP to
Sally by January 11, as an
order must be placed with the restaurant.
Las Madres Dues Our annual dues were set at $10 for
2007. Please send your check to Vicki before the end of
January.
Saturday Coffee Clatches
Continue Meet your Las
Madres friends for some coffee and conversation at Java Junction
on Saturday mornings at 9am. Every third Saturday is a field
trip. This month's away
coffee will be Saturday, January 20th. The Mercury News had
write-ups on several coffee shops so I decided we'll try them all!!
This month we'll go to MISSION CITY COFFEE ROASTING, 2221 The Alameda,
Santa Clara,
261-2221. They have plenty of seating and is a local hang-out for
college students, but hopefully on a Saturday morning we will find it
pleasant. The parking is rumored to be bad in back so try the street.
We'll carpool from the old Starbuck's parking lot at Aborn & White
for anyone interested... leaving at 8:45.

Dear Abby's New Year's Resolutions
JUST FOR TODAY: I will live through this day only. I
will not brood about yesterday or obsess about tomorrow. I will
not set far-reaching goals or try to overcome all of my problems at
once.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will be happy. I will not dwell on thoughts
that depress me. If my mind fills with clouds, I will chase them
away and fill it with sunshine.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will accept what is. I will face reality.
I will correct those things I can correct and accept those I cannot.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will improve my mind. I will read something
that requires effort, thought and concentration. I will not be a
mental loafer.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I
will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path, and I'll not
speak ill of others.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will refrain from improving anybody but myself.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will do something positive to improve my health.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will gather the courage to do what is right and take
responsibility for my own actions.
