How was your year? Mine was one of my favorite ever, I think.

I still have "year-end" posts and lists in my inbox waiting to be read that are one, two and three years old.

I see this tree sticking around for a while if we aren't careful.

Are we all still celebrating? I've got a day off if anybody needs me.

I see ballplayers in the offseason. It's very strange to hear where they're headed before it's announced.

The Milkmaid's sickness reached its apex last night. I can't believe this is still going on.

Health and happiness to your hearths and homes and whatnot.

Well, I caved and got a smartphone. My previous phone was failing so horribly it sped up the process.
