2006: The year in review

Here it is: 2006 in review. Took me several days and quite a bit of thinking to fill it out this year. My conclusion is that I'm ready to start a new year without too much looking backward. I should also note for the record that Rob Brezny's predictions for my 2006 panned out neither literally nor metaphorically. Ahead to 2007. Here we go....

1. What did you do in 2006 that you'd never done before?
1) Quit a job without having another job to replace it.
2) Gave a presentation at the Pacific Northwest Numismatic Association Coin Show.
3) Submitted a story to the Writers of the Future competition.

( See the rest here. Friends are encouraged to look. I say nice things. )

36. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2006.
Don't make an important life choice because you feel cornered. Make an important life choice that will make you feel free.

Happy new year, everyone. Stay safe tonight. I'll see you in 2007—may it be a happier, healthier, and more peaceful year than 2006.
