The holidays have come and gone and what a magical time it’s been! For any of our customers out there who have had the pleasure of staying with relatives and enjoying the company of some little ones, we’re happy for you! It’s been a difficult year for many people, so enjoy as much time with your family as you possibly can.
However, now that the holidays are over, we’re in the midst of the new year celebration and trying to come up with some helpful New Year’s Resolutions that might give us the strength to make some changes in our lives.

We’ve heard the old joke many a time: “Is your toilet running? Then you better go catch it!” It’s a classic, but it’s worth noting that a running toilet can be a serious issue (not that we’re adverse to a bit of toilet humor every now and then).
