2006

If a picture is worth a thousand words, these are worth thirty grand. Which is far more words than I have in me to write, in the waning hours of the year. I’m not one for resolutions on New Year’s Eve. I’m much more given to reflect on the 365 days that have just passed, and what happened therein:
I left my job, I started a new one, I started a novel, I stopped writing a novel, Stuart got promoted, Stuart got his green card, we went to England and New England, I turned 26, Biscuit graduated with his degree, Neff went to law school, Barrie got married, I discovered how much I love sci-fi and fantasy novels, my hair grew longer, teaching turned out to be very hard, I made a few new friends and held on tight to my old ones, I celebrated Christmas and Easter and birthdays, I drank lots of good wine, I tried lots of new food, I fell more in love with my husband than ever, and I’ve grown up just a little bit.
Bring it on, 2007.
