HAPPY 4-YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO TRAVELMAMAS.COM, TO MY WIFE COLLEEN, AND TO ITS +60,000 MONTHLY VISITORS!  |||  And scene!  The first quarter of 2013 has come to an end.  Have you accomplished your goals thus far?  Did you stick to your resolutions?  Me?  Yes, I have accomplished some goals, not all, but I’m on the right path and I’m working towards never ending improvement.  This quarter I have lofty goals as well…what about you, what are your plans for the second quarter?  |||  Being in a family that celebrates both Easter and Passover, I can truly relate to Jon Daily’s assessment of the two holidays. That is, Easter is awesome, and Passover, well, it isn’t. Don’t get me wrong, Passover has its place and I love the tradition of it, etc. But let’s face it, if you’re a kid Easter is so much fun and kids can’t wait, and Passover, well…. Jon Stewart’s Faith-Off.  Have a wonderful weekend!!

My Market Watch:  Pricing is slightly worse in some spots by 0.125 from yesterday.  The markets close early today and trading volume is expected to be low.  Our Lock Desk is open online all weekend.  Remember, if you plan to lock this weekend, then wait until Sunday…that way you pick up a couple days on your lock expiration.  My Disclaimer.

My Schedule:  Today I am working all day.  Please keep in mind I rarely answer my phone before 10:30a as I use this time to catch up on emails from last night and prepare the remainder of my day….
