Well, it has happened. Another year is racing past with no signs of slowing down. Every year about this time, we start to do our best to lay out a plan for the following year. Then, in the blink of an eye, it’s time to start the process again. As the owner of this company, I continue to be blessed to spend every day working with fabulous, conscientious employees who do an outstanding job creating an enjoyable renovation experience for our appreciative clients. I’ve heard that if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life. I love what I do, I love to work, and I love all the people I get to share the experience with. Thankful is what I am.

Speaking of thankful, we do not have to look very far to realize just how good we have it in America. With all the turmoil we have witnessed on the world stage recently, I encourage everyone who has the privilege to vote to get registered and do so. While you may argue that you can’t affect our country’s direction, I will argue that collectively, we all have an influence. We will not all agree on everything, but if we open our eyes, we may realize we are more alike than we realize. In our business, we focus on Honesty, Integrity, and Quality. If we, as a country, would focus on those three virtues, I believe we would see a great awakening of the American spirit that helped forge America.

Christmas is right around the corner. While this is a time to gather with friends and family, let’s not get carried away by the commercialization of this celebration. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to accept and know Christ as our savior. If you don’t know Christ, start here:

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. This may be a difficult concept to wrap your head around, but I encourage you to open your heart and explore all that is waiting for you.

Sincerely,
Greg Harris, President, CAPS, CGR
