Wishing everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010 from the ocean state of RHODE ISLAND


As I waited for the final countdown 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2
at midnight in Times Square, New York City with Dick Clark and Ryan Seacrest. I realized that I had been doing this for so many years, waiting for the big apple to inch down or now the huge 12 ft crystal ball to the last second to 1 and then "HAPPY NEW YEAR." As a child when my parents would go partying my younger brother and I would stay in my Nana and VooVoo's apartment next door and watch the New Year come in. They would give us some huge pots and cooking spoons and said when the apple drops to the Happy New Year you can bang these as loud as you like. What memories and fun. After we would have a light snack and milk and go to bed.

Today is the day begin as day, January 1, 2010 This was the day we would have dinner at my grandparents and watch the Pasadena Tournament of Rose Parade. My cousins and I would play games like, Monopoly or Sorry while our fathers and Uncles would sit in front of the TV and watch all the football games. They would smoke their pipes, or cigars and have their brandy in hand. The Rose Bowl, there was the Orange Bowl in Florida, the Cotton Bowl in Texas and the Sugar Bowl in Louisiana. Our mothers and Aunts would sit around the kitchen table and share stories of the past years and share recipes and craft ideas, some would bring their knitting and crocheting to do while they chatted. Those would great days of fabulous memories. Do I miss my family ancestors. It is so sad to have a huge family dwindle down to only a few.

My wishes to all of you as you begin this new year that you have an abundance of joy, happiness, love, good health and success in all your endeavors, dream big and make a change in the lives of the ones you love and the people you engage with in person or on line with all the social medias available . Make a difference in their lives, put a smile on their faces and provide them with hope make a difference one person at a time. Let their be peace on earth for all men and woman and children. Use your 525,600 minutes and measure your life with LOVE (Listen to the video)

"Better for our Children, Better for Our Pets, and Better for Our Environment"

A change in one life can be changed by an unexpected chance meeting of an old friend. This is how I was introduced to amazing cleaning products that would change the way I purchased household cleaning products for the rest of my life.

It was a Monday night on August 31st, I was given 3 complimentary tickets for the MGM Grand Theater at Foxwoods in Connecticut to see the Cirque Dreams called "Illumination" a highly artistic and energetic show, a theatrical adventure featuring an international cast of athletes, including contortionists, aerialists and trapeze artists. After sitting through a ninety minute action-packed production I needed to find a restroom on the way out of the theater. I saw the men's sign but did not see the women's sign but I did see women coming from a corridor as I headed in that direction. I said "Is this the way to the Ladies Room? to a woman that was standing there in my way, As she said "Yes" I said "Are you Eileen Moran?"
She said "yes, and my sister is over there."
I told her I would be right out so please wait.
When I returned there was my high school friend, Kathleen Moran from East Providence High that I had not seen for over 30 years. We were the best intramural partners. We talked and tried to catch up the happenings in all those years. I told her I was still in Avon and Real Estate since the early 70's. We exchanged business cards and


that is how I was introduced to Wowgreen.

Wowgreen International is a company whose mission is to help “free the world of toxic chemicals one household at a time”. Wowgreen promotes educating consumers on toxic awareness as well as coming up with a solution. As time goes on most of us are starting to learn about
how common household cleaners are poisonous to our homes, ourselves, our children, our pets and our environment. Research and studies across the nation are revealing their ill effects. Some companies are trying to join the green movement by “going green”.
The question is “how green ARE they?”
Many chemical and green cleaners are very vague and misleading and are still toxic to you and your family.

FOR A SAFE GREEN CLEAN
Wowgreen products are one of a kind. Each of their cleaning products contains a proprietary multi-enzyme formula, Lipase Protease Amylase Cellulase, developed to satisfy the cleaning tasks of today’s modern home. Their process enables enzymes to live in the same environment and maintain efficacy at very high levels. Wowgreen enzyme cleaners are pH neutral, non-flammable, non-corrosive, non-toxic, have ZERO impact on the environment and are 100% safe to you, your children and your pets.

GREEN CLEAN YOUR HOME OVERNIGHT

Wowgreen offers a full line of cleaning products, all priced comparable to the cleaners you already use and have a convenient doorstep delivery.

"The Obligation"
Enroll in our preferred customer program and purchase products at a 20% discount (wholesale prices)
By simply transferring your spending from toxic cleaners to non-toxic cleaners you not only save money, but you will also make money. With the world going green and news about the toxic chemicals sold in ordinary household cleaners popping up everywhere, many Moms and Dads are making the switch to enzyme-based home cleaners.


What does it really take for people to go green and make some green.

What Makes A Dad?

God took the strength of a mountain,

The majesty of a tree,

The warmth of a summer sun,

The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,

The comforting arm of night,

The wisdom of the ages,

The power of the eagle's flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,

The faith of a mustard seed,

The patience of eternity,

The depth of a family need,

Then God combined these qualities, When there was nothing more to add,

He knew His masterpiece was complete, And so,

He called it ... Dad

~Author Unknown~

I want to wish everyone a Happy Father's Day. Let us honor and celebrate not only our fathers, but all men who have acted as a father figure in our life - whether as Step-fathers, Uncles, Grandfathers, or "Big Brothers."

Any man can be a Father, but it takes a special person
to be called Dad.

Did you know?

First Father's Day celebration was in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910 by a
woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd, who wanted and thought that this would be a great way to honor her father. Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her after her mother died and he raised her.
