End of Year Wrap Up

Standard

In some ways, saying goodbye to 2024 is bittersweet. It is both a relief and a sadness. I’m still wearing my Harns/Walz bracelets and yearn for what might have been. Nothing was going to be perfect, but I have no doubt that it would have been better.

I spent yesterday looking back at this website, traveling from December all the way back to January to find which posts stood out to me. some were great; Some were not so great, but they all propelled my writing forward. A few of my favorites are linked below for you to also look back on. Tomorrow, I’ll begin with my intentions and actual resolutions for the New Year.

After 25 or so years home with my kids, I now have a job outside the house that I truly love. I never expected this to happen, and I’m so glad that the time was right, both for me and the place.

I have a good path forward for my book. I’m organizing the research and the photos, and I will also be presenting a program in the summer on St. Kateri’s Journey and her life.

A Look Back:

In addition, I have been really proud of my ongoing series (which will continue):

  • Election Connection
  • Friday Food
  • Inspired
  • Mental Health Monday
  • Penny Prompts

I have also enjoyed writing about travel, tea, and spirituality as well as subjects as they come up in life. I would expect to continue that. More on my intentions tomorrow.

These are not the only metrics to success, but they’re still valuable to be acknowledged:

My total word count was: 56,375

My total published writings were: 122 on various platforms and groups. This total does not include my Instagram posts, which were 79. Visit through this link or on the sidebar to the left to see the photos from the last year.

Happy New Year!
