Happy New Year!!!
Hello all! Once again we find ourselves at the end of the month and I have not done a post. What makes this one special? You might ask. Well, of course, this is the end of 2013! I'd love to give you a long, reflective, hope filled post, but this year I find that I don't have time. I know, I know, I owe you more stories (and pics) from my trip to the south west. Trust me, we'll get there. I intended to post more about that earlier this month, but the month was a flurry of activity coupled with a period of illness, and I just couldn't find the time. (I'm better now...if you were wondering...finding time to see a doctor was part of not having time to write blog posts).
Well, at this point I've rambled a bit and you probably are wondering why I don't have time for that long, reflective, hope filled post that I tend to do around the holidays. The answer, my friends, is that for the first time in a very long time, I have plans tonight. I had lunch with some very good friends (during the time that maybe I could have written that reflective post...although realistically I probably would have chosen to play Batman Arkham Origins) and now I need to get ready for an evening of comedy and ringing in the new year with some close friends. So I will leave you with this:
1. For the first time in many years I feel good enough about myself and my life to celebrate in style! (there's your hope)
2. My New Years Resolution is to write a chapter a month on the book that I started working on several years ago. (Yep, that's right, I just publicly admitted that I've been working on a book...the first third is almost finished...I made a lot of progress in 2013 but hit the proverbial brick wall in October...finally wrote a new sentence the day after Christmas...that's actually big news).
3. Happy New Year!
