I have a date stamp on my desk in the office. The old- fashioned kind. You change the date, month and year with plastic wheels. Changing the date is part of my morning ritual. I’ve had such a stamp on my desk for many years. I use it to stamp mail. I don't use it as much now as I used to.

Yesterday morning I checked to make sure that the stamp has 2015 on it. I look forward to changing the year when I get back to the office after the holiday. After all, I only get to do that once a year.

I am not one for New Year’s resolutions, although as I reflect on the year past and the year to come, there are old routines that I would like to change and new ones that I would like to start.

My date stamp is one routine that is just fine.

Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2015!
