This year's been fantastic overall. The worst I can say about it is that I need to drop 10 lbs, but I'll have that done by the end of February.

I've hit my goals for this year, including a few swag goals. 2022 and beyond will show what achieving these milestones was worth.

There are a lot of people I miss, both that are still alive, and that are gone forever. On that note, do me a favor this New Year's. Scroll to the bottom of your contact list and pick a friend you've lost touch with and send them a message. Reconnect for at least a little bit and maybe comment here letting me know you said hi to someone you've not said hi to in awhile after you do. :)
