Dear Readers, this is our last post for the year. Here are some heartfelt wishes for the upcoming holidays. Please come back and visit us on January 5 when we'll resume our regularly scheduled postings. Also, please note that the Blog will be Monday through Friday. I'll be stepping down. Read more about that below! :)
Antonette: It's been a pleasure writing for the Virtual Wire! This is my last post as I must get back to basics and remove a few things from my overloaded plate! :)
I started this year with my theme: 2008: The Year of New Things! Boy has it been a new things kind of year. I have a new organizational system, I have a new shiny VA of the Year award, I had all kind of new experiences flying back and forth to Vegas, and then I had a great new things kind of year just having a theme that always stayed on my mind. My theme for 2009 is 2009: The Year of Honesty!
Have a fabulous Holiday Season; enjoy your family and friends, and be better to yourself next year!
Gloria:
It continues to be my privilege to participate as a team blogger on The Virtual Wire. Thank you, dear readers, for joining in the conversations and for your support throughout this year. As we near the formal celebrations of this season, I'm wishing all our readers a most blessed and wonderful holiday - filled with overflowing love and laughter! May your New Year be filled with all those good things you're needing and desiring! See you in 2009!
Petra:
I am honoured to be a part of The Virtual Wire team for another year. 2008 went past in a blitz and taught me some valuable lessons on running a successful VA practice and for the first time highlighted strengths and weaknesses that I didn't even know I had. As we all take time out to be with family and friends, I want to wish our readers a fantastic seasonal break and best wishes for 2009. 2009 for me will be a year of immense change and growth. In one sense I am overwhelmed about the changes I see coming and of course I am mostly excited about the new experiences it will bring. I hope to share part of my journey with you. Have fun over the next 2 weeks!

Though I realize many people do not celebrate Christmas—whether due to religious or philosophical beliefs, or simply due to having made a choice—I still feel it’s an excellent time to stop and consider those around us, and those in need.
One of my sisters recently quit her job at a nursing home in order to start a business with her husband. She’s barely been away from her former employer, and yet will go back on Christmas day to visit some of the many elderly patients she used to care for. A dear friend of mine who lives in Georgia will this holiday season visit some senior homes, harp in tow, and play for them. One of our local radio stations is heavily into their annual Christmas Wish fundraising, having done this for over 40 years.
Whether you celebrate in silence, don’t celebrate at all, participate a lot or a little, I want to wish you and your family my very best for the holiday season, and for a wonderful New Year. The personality of any holiday season is what we as individuals make it. I hope you make yours, and others, memorable.
