anyone or thing worth mentioning?


Did a piece of advice boost your business to a new level or keep you from sinking?

Did you find a drop dead perfect significant other or 7th husband?

Did you get a new piece of equipment that made you a boat load?

how about a good friend who stood by you, kept you from getting emotional and ruining what you have?


















Well I sure do, I want to announce that Jim Pemberton and I will be eloping in Nashville next year and starting up a new bait and switch in Virgina Beach with a fleet of Mytees and Sapphire truckmounts


how about you?

I want to thank Mr. Bruders for his generousity and vision by supporting us and also for hosting MikeFest at his facility.

This year promises to be the very best event of the year for most of us.

I am thankful for a large account that a customer landed for me. She was so happy with us that she told her boss about me. He put me on all of their facilities every 6 months. I was able to put UPS behind me.

I'm thankful for my wife and children, extended family & freinds and the support they give me every day. I'm thankful that my family is healthy and for the most part content. I'm thankful to be alive, well fed, have a roof over my head and have clean clothes. The list of things I am thankful for is quite long... Suffice it to say, I'm thankful for the quality of life and the freinds, family and business opportunities the Good Lord has seen fit to bless me and those around me with.

Yeah, I have a ton to be thankful for this year.

First and foremost, my husband Mike who loves and supports me every day. I'm so thankful for ever day, no - every moment, we have together. I've never been happier in my life. There are people in the world who are so good, so full of light and purity and innocence of spirit that those who meet them have cause to pause and smile...like a pleasant oasis in a busy day. These people are precious and amazing, they take your breath away with the beauty inside them. My husband is one of those people. he gives me something to live up to. We've never had a fight, even a disagreement or misunderstanding is rare and fleeting and we quickly work it out. Even my kids...who were oh so skepical of anyone after the bad relationships which have come before love him and are glad to have him in their lives. He's just the sweetest most wonderful man you ever met.

Next I'm thankful for Karen, who does so much to keep things running with few bumps and is the best help anyone could ask for. She encourages me when I need it and kicks my ass when I need it too.

I'm thankful for my kids. Without them I'd have stayed far too long in places I never should have been in life. They keep me on track and always make me laugh. The last few months they have really started to blossom. I look forward to watching them become adults and take on the world.

I'm thankful for my dearest friends which I share this industry with, Mikey and Jim Pemberton. While they are so different in so many ways, they both have a clarity of vision and a sense of justice that impress me.

I'm thankful for Jeff/Greenie, without whom GreenGlides would have never happened. By both our admissions, our marriage was hell, but our synergy with GreenGlides built something that changed the industry. I'm also thankful that now we both have the opportunity to follow our passions in different directions. I wish you well, my friend.

I'm thankful for my loyal customers and my wonderful online family this is bar none the best group of people I have ever met in my life. I'm thankful to have haplessly entered this industry over two decades ago. It's the best work I've done in my life.

I'm just thankful to have this window of opportunity known as life.

Love you all and wish all of you health and happiness.

Love,
Lisa

Way too much to mention but I am thankful that my plan a few years ago to leave and forgo a big salary so that my wife could give her the best shot at succeeding has worked out. One of the biggest and toughest decisions in our lives. It will be exactly 2 years January 1 that I went full time and it couldn't have worked out better.
The impact others have had on me can not be formulated in what I do but how my family has succeeded, my wife made VP of Operation as a brain injury specialist this past month, I have had a great year(more than my old salary) and we have spent alot more family time. Can forget some of the great toys:)

If that isn't something to be thankful for I don't know what is.

Everyone has a lot to be thankful for. I am just glad I got to spend some quality time with my father this year. He worked long hard hours as a small store owner to provide for us growing up. I mean 7 days a week with only christmas and thanksgiving off. He nearly lost his life after being shot by some punk kid in a robery. Now he is able to just relax. He deserves it.
